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 recent times transportation has become an essential thing in people's lives. There are some countries that prevent private cars from entering the middle city and allow them to use only buses and bicycles. From my perspective, I think that the benefits of buses and bicycles overpower the detrimental ones. This essay will outline the merits and demerits of reducing the use of private cars.

It might seem difficult to believe that only 50 years ago, people used their feet to move anywhere, and cars were a luxurious option only the wealthy could have. Nowadays, almost everyone on this planet owns a car to the point we started to look for measures we can take to replace cars with other transportation due to the traffic jam we suffer from everywhere. I will provide pieces of evidence for my argument and give some suggestions about what authorities can do to mitigate this phenomenon.

In many countries, people are not looking care of their elderly relatives but seeking help of professionals to look after them. Do you think this is a positive or negative development?
People are handing over the well-being of their elderly members of their family to professional caregivers rather than themselves in many nations. This essay also agrees with this initiative because this puts relief on families to reduce the burden off their shoulders, and the older family members can be taken care of in a better way by professionals.
