modern world, the upbringing of children is considered the most daunting task amongst all. Some would argue that educating children about the things which make them a good human being in

, is the sole responsibility of the parents. While others think that educational institutes ought to teach children about these because they are meant for

purpose, I believe that parents are the role model for children. On the one hand, the primary purpose of the schools is to polish children with good manners and teach them with etiquettes which are required to become a better part of

.
This

is to say that
besides

learning the curriculum, a school is a place where a

has a small social circle and
this

is the place where all the things learned are applied.
For example

, a recent survey on

behaviour revealed that on average a

spends a one-

However

, I consider that due to the high strength of the students it not possible to supervise and give them individual attention.
On the other hand

, children spend most of their time with their parents and they are their initial source of knowledge. The things taught by parents are more effective than any other institution, because children imbibe, and try to adapt things which they observe in their parents.
For example

behaviour. I believe that parents are our a priori source of learning, between our partial knowledge and

although

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
