Some people think that it is more effective for students to study in groups, while others believe that it is better for them to study alone. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

It is true that group
study
 is one of the best ways for students to get their knowledge. While I tend towards the view that collaboration in studying is effective, I agree with the opinion that self-studying is
also
 better for pupils. On the one hand, it is undeniable that by studying together, students can easily understand their lessons through their classmates after class times.
This
 is because they do not have any pressures to ask their unclear ideas to other students and tell them to give a hand in order to explain them.
Moreover
, there are many pupils in the class that have different perspectives,
thus
, when studying in a group, learners can absorb the knowledge in various ways.
For example
, my friends and I always gather around someone’s house or sit in the coffee shop to
study
 and to make teachers’ lessons more clearly when final exams come.
On the other hand
,
however
, learning independently can allow students to acquire more knowledge which is very different between collaboration as they can
study
 immediately in anytime and anywhere they like. Students can

time
.
In addition
, the more student studies alone, the higher chances for he or she to find a way to learn and motivate him/herself to create a new thing. In conclusion, I believe that both self-
study
 and
study
in groups have their

groups have their
 pros and cons depending on the students choose with some reasons that I mentioned above.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
