Some people say social media do more harm to the youth. Other people say they do the great to the youth. Discuss both views and give your opinion. Give reasons for your answers and include examples from your knowledge and experience.

Nowadays, it is incredibly prevalent for a teenager to have lots of social media accounts. The antagonists view
this
as inevitable and necessary,
while
the protagonists oppose
this
view and disagree that they impact the youngsters negatively. Personally, I think
this
issue brings more setbacks than advantages. First of all, with the advanced internet, tweens can catch up with the fast-moving world. From useful knowledge to news
that is
shared globally, one can research and be educated on topics that are sensitive and even banned legally.
For instance
, the BBC website which is not accessible to Vietnamese readers is available on Facebook.
Besides
that, social media allow people to contact their friends and relatives more comfortably and conveniently.
For example
, the Messenger app allows users to call face-to-face and chat with their family members.

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
