Introduction
Ensure your introduction sets the context for the prompt and outlines your discussion points clearly. An effective introduction should also have a thesis statement reflecting your opinion.
Paragraph Structure
Your body paragraphs lack clear topic sentences. Each paragraph should introduce its main idea at the beginning to guide the reader through your arguments.
Linking
The use of linking words to connect ideas is crucial. Your essay needs more cohesive devices to make it more readable and logical.
Conclusion
Your conclusion should summarize the key points discussed and restate your opinion more clearly without introducing new information.
Task Response
It is important to fully respond to all parts of the task. Your essay should provide a more balanced discussion of the two viewpoints and offer more development of your personal stance throughout.
Grammar and Coherence
Work on using a wider range of sentence structures to express your ideas more precisely and improve the overall readability.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
