view to some extent. I concede that there might be some reasons why some argue that politicians’ private lives should be unveiled by the media and perhaps the most obvious one is

is potentially incredibly vital.
For example
, in the US, the media has the freedom to report anything they would like to, resulting in politicians performing well even in their private time, and

invariably leads to them becoming role models.
However
, I disagree with

suggestion because if politicians’ privacy is infringed by the press, it would affect their mental health or even lead them to depression. When politicians’ private life is reported to the public, they cannot enjoy their free time with their families and friends, in turn leading them to isolation and alienation. What

does is make it extremely detrimental. My uncle Tom,

while
there are a few benefits of reporting politicians’ private information, I do not agree that

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
