boys and girls have different learning needs, it is better for them to be taught separately. In fact, single-sex schools offer teaching styles, subject choices and learning programmes that are entirely focused on either boys or girls, which would help each individual pursue their strengths and passions.

, by enrolling in the same-sex schools, students will have less chance for early relationships. Without worrying about these distractions, they might be able to concentrate more on their studies, and

On the other hand

, I would argue that it would be better for students to enter mixed-gender education.
Firstly

, in order to raise students’ gender awareness, it is really necessary to teach them in co-ed schools.
For example

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
