What do you think were the advantages and disadvantages of living in a small community?

#community
In
this
 day and age, people, especially the young generation from distant regions are starting to leave for bigger and more developed towns. That’s perhaps because they think that they will have better chances for their careers. I wholly back up the idea and in the essay, I would argue that there were benefits and
also
 drawbacks when living in a rural locality. In my view, there were three crucial positive aspects.

Therefore

Secondly

In addition

However
, in my point of view, we should not be limited to any small community because the world outside is captivating and has many things to discover.

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
