Living in a country where you have to speak a foreign language can cause serious social problems, as well as practical problems. To what extent do you agree and disagree with this statement?

I believe that having to speak a foreign
language
in a country is indeed a serious social problems, as well as practical problems. I'm a primary example of how much problem it caused me socially and practically when I moved into France from India for job reasons. Being born and brought up in India and stayed here whole life for nearly 30 years and
then
one day I was told by my manager that I need to move to France for project work. Honestly, it was super exciting because all my life I had known France through movies or books,
also
of Eiffel Tower especially and thought of getting to see it live only had been excited like a kid, but it wasn'
t
that thrilling when I moved to France alone. I hardly knew more than 2 words, Bonjour and Merci so in that I just couldn'
t
deal with not being able to communicate with anyone. I couldn'
t
do grocery or any other basic necessary shopping
also
and I had to always rely on someone to help it might for buying or anything which was just infuriating after a point and
that is
when I realized how it is necessary to learn a foreign
language
. Later, I joined French classes and the happiness I had in interacting with someone or understanding what they were speaking gave me joy and another advantage I had was it helped me know French culture more clearly and embrace it fondly. So I do agree that it does cause a problem, but I believe sometimes it might cause too much mental pressure on someone who will be not be interested or
also
when they might not able to grasp that foreign
language
quickly during that time it may negative impact on them, which can be avoided if schools start educating their students with one foreign
language
at least because if kids start learning in tender age
then
not only they will be able to grasp things easily and they won'
t
forget it easily.

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
