There are

people

who think that other nationalities must adhere to the local

traditions

and customs of other countries they visit. Respecting the ideas and behaviour of a host

country

is a must.

However

, I believe that local

people

should accept cultural differences

instead

and must not expect foreign individuals to comply with local

traditions

. Each

country

has their own beliefs and

traditions

. Some

people

believe that as a sign of respect, tourists must

also

do what the locals do. These tourists come to a different

country

to have a vacation, relax and enjoy the beautiful sights of another nation. Imposing a behaviour to a foreign person can add another source of stress that they are trying to stay away from.

Instead

of expecting something from them, it is much more appropriate to showcase to them the beauty of local tradition and culture.

Thus

, encouraging them to see, feel, and enjoy the things the

country

has to offer.

For instance

, showing hospitality and kindness, introducing them to tasty local cuisines, and educating them about historical and cultural architecture.

In addition

, local

people

might

also

benefit from tourists like learning a new language and

also

about other cultural beliefs and

traditions

Similarly

, accepting other cultures does not only benefit the local

people

but the society as well. It is because of the tendency of foreign nationals to come back and visit again in the future, bringing with them their loved ones and friends. In return, the tourism economy of one's

country

will

also

flourish through boosted economic revenues, possibilities for job creation, and the development of new infrastructures. Overall, accepting differences from foreign citizens is not a negative idea. It benefits both parties in learning various cultural behaviours and

traditions

and

also

has a positive impact on economic growth.

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

To describe a a writter, he is a monk and a leader of 7 million Tibetan’s inside and outside of Tibet. He is non other than His Holliness the Dalai Lama. I am familiar with his writings on Buddhist psychology , where it reminds about the compassion, how it helps one's own mind to keep calam and non reactive towards harmful actions or faulty language spoken to oneself. It was stated in one his writting that the compassionate mind helped him to survive his spirit. The eagerness came from that statement in one of his books that I want to meet him in personel to ask him how does that helped him to stay spirited. It was in his biography that he did have had tough time in late 1950s where he lost his country’s Independence and had to flee his own country.

In this day and age, population is always a hotly debated topic. At this time, many individuals believe that in many countries, amount of young citizens is huge, compared with the amount of old.
