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.

Some people believe that free social service should be made compulsory for high school students. Do you agree or disagree?
Many people think that free social services such as transportation and Wi-Fi are necessary. I strongly agree with this, as it is an important issue that can help improve the public's quality of life, especially for high school students. This essay will discuss several reasons that will back up this opinion.

Some people think scientific research should focus on solving world health problems. Others think that there are more important issues. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
There is an ongoing debate on whether scientific research should focus on solving global health problems, or spend the budget on other important issues. As I believe the ultimate goal of scientific research is to provide enhancements to human welfare, I think solving both world health and other issues are equally as important, and neither of which should be prioritized over the other.
