Student should pay the full cost for their own study, because university education benefits individuals rather than society. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

While

students
 since they will eventually benefit society somehow. I agree with the latter argument, and the reason will be elaborated on in

 perspective, it is logical why some think that the cost of study should be fully paid by each student.
However
, I personally argue that people who pursue higher education from academic institutions including universities and colleges should not carry the entire educational costs, seeing that they can utilize their talent and potential to make contributions to society. In my country,

coherence and cohesion
The essay has a clear and logical structure, but ensure that each paragraph is well-connected with the preceding and following ones.

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
