People have different perceptions towards the subjects taught in higher studies. Some propose that tertiary

education

should focus to get good job opportunities and not include art subjects while others oppose it. Personally, I strongly disagree with the former opinion. There are myriad of reasons why university teaching should not be limited to practical degree courses. Actually, tertiary

education

is allowing a person to do in-depth study about a particular subject training to become a professional. In fact, every subject has its own value and importance, it is not a good act entirely to look down on the art subjects even in the era of science and technology. The essence of higher

education

should not be affected by the current popularity of

art subjects should not be overlooked. Though today's world is dominated by scientists, the work of philosophers and their role is not disappearing at all as thoughts and ideas for mental wellbeing are still important in whatever era. If a person is confident and qualified, chance of getting jobs could not differ a lot among job applicants graduated degree like history and practical subject as

. To conclude, in my opinion, the core value of university

education

should not be judged against the contemporary employment pattern. I think that an effort of a person is more important to achieve a job rather than disputing over the types of qualifications and certificates.

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

Some people think that parents should teach their children how to be good members of society. Others, however, believe that school is the best place to learn this. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Some people believe that children should be taught by their parents about how to function as useful members of society, while others believe that sending children to educational institutions is the best way for them to study this. Although the latter opinion can be beneficial in some cases, I believe that family upbringing plays a more important role in educating children to be good parts of the community.

You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. Write at least 250 words. Write about the following topic: Companies are responsible only for making money for their investors. Therefore, they should not be held accountable for the environmental and social costs of their business activity to society as a whole. Businesses should do no more than concentrate on making profit. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
The idea that companies are responsible only for making money for their investors and should not be held accountable for the environmental and social costs of their activities is a narrow and outdated perspective. While the pursuit of profit is indeed a fundamental objective of any business, I strongly disagree with the notion that this should be their sole focus. Businesses have a broader role in society, and their operations inevitably impact various stakeholders, including employees, customers, communities, and the environment. Therefore, they must take responsibility for these impacts rather than concentrating solely on financial gain.

Some people believe that unpaid community service should be a compulsory part of high school programmers (for example working for a charity, improving the neighbourhood or teaching sports to younger children). To what extent do you agree or disagree?
These days, many individuals contend that high school programmers should have more unpaid community service, and they also think it has to be an inevitable part of educational systems. I strongly advocate for that idea owing to the variety of its benefits for students.
