task achievement
Your essay tends to address the task only partially. You did attempt to discuss both viewpoints, which is a good start, but you fell short of developing your arguments thoroughly. Your conclusion summarises your opinion, however, it is not entirely clear how you compare the significance of each viewpoint. A higher score demands a balanced discussion of both views and a reasoned conclusion derived from the body paragraphs.
coherence cohesion
The logical structure of your essay is somewhat apparent, as there is an attempt to organize ideas using paragraphs. However, transitions between ideas are abrupt, and the overall flow can be improved by using a range of linking words and cohesive devices. Paragraphs should have clear topic sentences, and ideas should be developed in a logical sequence.
coherence cohesion
Main points are present but need better support. Supporting statements should include specific examples and explanations to illustrate your points clearly. Facts, statistics, or real-life examples can enhance the quality and persuasiveness of your argument.
Use cohesive linking words accurately and appropriately
Linking words are very important in your essay.
To score effectively on your IELTS exam, you should make an effort to implement short concise sentences coupled with linking words.
Almost every sentence in your essay should have a linking word of some sort.
In fact, the only sentences that can omit linking words are your background sentence and thesis.
Linking word examples:
- firstly
- secondly
- thirdly
- in additional
- moreover
- also
- for example
- for instance
- therefore
- however
- although
- even though
- despite
