Coherence and Cohesion
Your overall structure is logical but there could be a better transition between your ideas. Try to link your sentences more smoothly and interconnect your paragraphs to create a harmonized debate.
Task Achievement
You did well in presenting your views clearly and supported them with relevant ideas. However, you could improve by providing more specific examples to strengthen your claims.
Organisation
Good job on presenting the introduction and conclusion. To enhance it further, the introduction could introduce the main points to be discussed in your essay, and the conclusion could summarize your views more powerfully.
Grammatical Range
Be careful with sentence structure and ensure the correct use of punctuation. Sentence complexity is good but clarity should not be compromised.
Lexical Resource
The vocabulary usage is fair, but could be improved. Some phrases are repeated quite frequently. Avoid redundancy and try to employ a more diverse range of vocabularies.

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
