Living in a country where you have to speak a foreign language can cause serious social problems as well as practical problems.To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

#country #language
Nowadays, it is often argued that people who live their lives in a foreign country have diverse issues
such
 as in the area of social life and practical matters. From my point of view, the people who think in
this
 way have reasonable points, and locating in a country where you cannot speak your
language
 may disclose problems in various fields of life
such
 as socializing and practical problems. If we consider two sides of possible negative results, on the one hand, the
first
 one would be in the social part. To give an example, living in a distinct nation requires a good level of local
language
 and if it is not acquired there might be some hardships either cultural or to be socialized.
Additionally
, these difficulties may be varied like making friends and communicating with indigenous individuals. Another issue may occur in attending social activities because most courses and activities arranged by universities or governments will be their
language
.
On the other hand
, there is another potential drawback in practical areas. For one thing, if you are new in a different country it will be hard to deal with paperwork.
For instance
, the issues with governments will require indispensable formal
language
 knowledge, and signing in an insurance company to provide health services which are inevitable for everyone could be another trouble. What is more, it
also
 may cause problems among multinational firms which are not good enough at speaking the formal
language
. By and large, being a resident in a nation where you are not able to speak their native
language
 will bring some disadvantages in different areas of life, and potential imperfections will be mostly in socializing and issues that need formal
language
.

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
