Tourism is becoming increasingly important as a source of revenue to many countries, but its disadvantages should not be overlooked.

It is an undeniable fact that tourist spots in every country have become more popular and have so many visitors. The development of tourism has so many benefits,
such
as more income from tourists and exposure to culture,
although
the drawbacks of
this
development cannot be ignored. 
Firstly
, one of the many disadvantages is the increasing crime rate. Some locals see tourists as easy prey because, not only are they in unfamiliar territory and
therefore
less able to take care of themselves, but
also
they carry visible items of wealth,
such
as cameras and jewellery which can be disposed of quickly for a profit. Take the city of Paris as an example. As a Parisian I know what I can and cannot do.

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
