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

Modern societies need specialists in certain fields, but not others.

In the world of global problems we have a lot of useful and not majors. Therefore, more and more people argued that government must pay the cost of university for the ones who study relevant subjects, while for others, who choose more pointless classes, they should not make scholarships and grants. But this studying system has their own advantages and diasadvantages.

I have a dream to become a professional and lecturer at IPB University with a specialization in climate and earth. Lecturing is one of the jobs that requires a high level of specialization because a doctoral degree is required to become a lecturer at IPB University. The high qualification makes me obliged to continue my higher education to get the degree. Of course, I am very open to various fields of science related to me, especially the field of climate and earth sciences. I am very optimistic about my dream because I also have another big dream, which is to help educate the people of Indonesia so that there is no educational inequality. I have made this big dream since I was in high school and I will pursue these two things as much as I can.
