Band 7.5

It is important for children to learn the difference between right and wrong at an early age. Punishment is necessary to help them learn this distinction. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion? What sort of punishment should parents and teachers be allowed to use to teach good behaviour to children?

Nowadays, the question of whether punishment would help children distinct true and false or not has been receiving a great deal of public attention. While using punishments is necessary in order to children learn from their mistakes. I believe that they are more likely to have harmful impacts. On the one hand, there are two compelling reasons why punishment should be imposed on children.
Firstly
, children
are
Suggestion
is
 curious and sometimes less mature to understand deeply harmful effects of bad behaviour.
Therefore
, by implementing discipline, which makes kids realize their mistakes throughout new experiences, enrich knowledge and especially valuable lessons to ignore errors in the future.
Secondly
, not all children are docile, many are very stubborn and do not accept their shortcomings.
This
 means that they tend to argue and shout, even unethical behaviour with their parents who bringing up them. So,
that is
 a great tool if parents use fit sanction with them.
On the other hand
, I would argue that sometimes, the drawbacks are outweighed by the benefits.
First
, harsh punishments are likely to affect negatively and deep depressions in the long term.
For example
, many children over the world
were
we are
we're
 dealing with death when they are punished in hard conditions like lack of food, water by their parents.
Moreover
, severe punishments merely frighten children and more difficult to educate them. Children respond more to affection than to abuse.
Therefore
, in state of applying punishments, parents could collaborate with teachers to come up with feasible solutions as a warning or self-criticism, which is a positive effect on children's cognitive development. In conclusion,
although
 imposing some punishments can help children learn from their mistakes, the downsides of
this
 method need to consider.

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
