Children

behaviour while others argue that it is the duration of

for several hours straight daily could turn

which will

affect their grades.

For instance

, when I was doing GCE O level, I was so much addicted to a Korean

series that I watched it the entire night and headed to school the

day feeling exhausted. Due to the lack of sleep, I was unable to concentrate during my classes as well. I came to a realization when I saw my grades drop drastically. Since

to only spend an hour watching

on weekends. The content of television shows could actually turn

children

into bad people. As

channels cater to different groups of audiences,

children

might be watching movies that include extreme violence or actions that show how to do things illegally. It is very possible that

children

make reference to

such

scenes in the future for their wrongdoings.

For example

, I recently came across a piece of news where the juvenile committed a serious offence at his school. When he gave evidence, he mentioned that he got the idea from a crime television series. All in all, while both how much time spent in front of a

and what is watched matters, watching shows and movies that are not suitable for

children

could influence them more.

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
