Social media is becoming increasingly popular amongst all age groups. However, sharing personal information on social media websites does have risks.

One of the most controversial issues today relates to the popularity of social media among different ages. It is argued that it has risks about users' private data. In
this
 essay, I am going to examine the question from both points of view. On one side of the argument, there are people who argued that the benefits of social websites considerably outweigh its disadvantages. The main reason for believing
that is
 easy access to the information, which will lead to new knowledge. It is
also
 possible to say that social platforms
such
 as Facebook and Instagram will increase the number of new acquaintances.

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
