Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

for example
for instance
to illustrate this
to give a clear example
such as
namely
to illustrate
take, for example

some people say that all boys and girls should learn to cook as a compulsory part of their education from primary schools.
It has been suggested that cooking should be included in the curriculum of all students as early as they are in elementary school; however, I disagree with this suggestion and believe this skill should be taught later in life, not as a mandatory subject.

Research indicates that the characteristics we are born with have much more influence on our personality and development than any experiences we may have in our life. Which do you consider to be the major influence? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
Studies have concluded that our personality and development rely more on the characteristics we are born with than any events that may occur and affect our lives. Even though our genetic background plays a significant role in our later development, it disagrees that they may be a greater influence than exposure to incidents or circumstances in life, and this essay will prove it.

Scientists predict that all people will choose to speak the same global language in the future. Do you think this is a positive or negative development?
Different languages have been created worldwide in order to establish one principal way of communication. Nowadays, many researchers argue that eventually everybody will communicate their ideas with a unique prose, and then dialect variations currently known will disappear. I believe that it will lead to positive and negative aspects, hence in this essay, I detail both sides.

Most of the workplaces have put restrictions on smoking within the work area.Also,official authorities have prohibited vaping in public areas.Although some people think that it is a great idea,others think that somehow it removes freedom.I also believe in the former notion.
