In today’s job market, it is far more important to have practical skills than theoretical knowledge. In the future, job applicants may not need any formal qualifications. To what extent do you agree and disagree with this question?

The contemporary world seems to be benefiting those people who acquire only practical abilities as they are required much.

However
, while some say that theoretical

is not as important as practical one, I argue that formal degree is much needed for two reasons. Some people argue that

and they do not need a high qualification.

and for practice the

.
Secondly
, for those people, learning theoretical skills is time consuming since at authentic workplaces no one asks for the theories forcefully.
As a result
, school leavers decide not to fritter away their time, but
instead
they invest their time and energy in sharpening themselves practically. While I concede that self-development in

Consequently

Therefore

learn theoretical skills.

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
