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

Many manufactured food and drink products contain high levels of sugar, which causes many health problems. Sugary products should be made more expensive to encourage people to consume less sugar. Do you agree or disagree?
The question of whether to apply more expensive value to rich sugar-contained products is worthy of debate. Some people argue that it isn't a reasonable way to solve the problem. However, I agree with the suggestion because it can ultimately lead to a nation's profitability.

Employers should give holidays of at least one month to employees to encourage them to perform better at workplace. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
The notion of employers mandating a minimum one-month holiday to boost performance is compelling yet presents a complex dilemma. While extended time off undoubtedly benefits employee well-being and potentially sparks creativity, its universal implementation raises logistical and financial concerns.

In the recent years, many small shops have closed because customers travel to large shopping centers or malls to do their shopping. Is this a positive or a negative development?
