Task 2 Some educationalists say a child should be taught to play a musical instrument. To what extend do you agree or disagree?

Nowadays, the ability to play musical instruments is especially important.Some people believe that every child should be able to play any musical instrument. And
this
ability gives children various opportunities in choosing a profession. I do not agree with
this
statement.
Firstly
, not everyone has the opportunity to play certain musical instruments well.
This
can be difficult for children who are interested in other subjects
such
as math and not music. Different people have various abilities, so each person should choose their own right way.
Secondly
, I think that for those who do not have the desire and ability to play any musical instrument, it will be very difficult and there will be no positive results. I think that not all children should play musical instruments. Each child is completely individual and may have other hobbies and interests
besides
music.

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
