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 experts believe that it is better for children to begin learning a foreign language at primary school rather than secondary school. Do the advantages of this outweigh the disadvantages?
Nowadays, people are more aware of the fact that the labour market is becoming more competitive than ever before. It therefore leads to the question of whether or not we should expect children to learn at a younger age, especially a foreign language. In this essay, I will discuss both views and give out the reasons as well as show my opinion on the topic.

Do children behave better when they are physically punished or rewarded?
Raising a child to be a good citizen is a big responsibility. Some people believe that physically enforcing kids will help them to become a better person in the future rather than nurturing them in a positive way. I strongly advocate in growing little hands with full of love, respect, support, and compassion as punishing them at such a young age will impact their brain very badly. Therefore, positive environment is a fundamental right for every little kid rather than threatening surroundings.

Many university students want to learn about different subjects in addition to their main subjects. Others feel it is important to give all their time and attention to studying for their qualification. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
There is a debate that university scholars need solely focus on learning their courses, whereas others believe that learning additional study materials is necessary for campus students. It seems to me that additional courses are crucial for university students. This essay, however, will elaborate more on both sides.
