Currently there is a trend towards the use of alternative forms of medicine. However, at the best these methods are ineffective, and at worst they may be dangerous. To what extent do you agree with this statement?

Alternative medicine
became
Suggestion
has become
widespread over the world since mankind had evolved into reasonable creatures. There are still controversial views on
this
subject in various communities
such
as scientific one. As
to
Suggestion
for
me I
Accept comma addition
me, I
am deeply convinced that
such
forms of treatments are dangerous and can cause disastrous outcome. The
first
point is the harmfulness, which is caused by inappropriate acts of so-called "doctors".
Moreover
, using some non-conventional types of medicine can only increase
danger
Suggestion
the danger
of exacerbating. The reason of
that is
mostly lack of proper education, which leads to complete ignorance about

Suggestion
the human body
. Apart from that, the risk will goes up, if healers ignore patient's

For instance
, if someone has an allergy to some kind of

and at the same time it is used as the means of cure
then
there is

a high probability
of injury.
Secondly
, there is always room for fraud. Unfortunately, cheating is pervasive, especially it tends to appear in emotionally complicated situations. It gets more frightening, when people have incurable or another serious disease. At

this

As a result
of
such

has a wide range of drawbacks, which could cost human health or even life.

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
