task achievement
The essay responds well to the task. Both the advantages and disadvantages of online business meetings are discussed. However, your essay could be improved by ensuring that you fully explore each idea you present.
coherence cohesion
The essay is well organized with an effective structure and strong coherence between paragraphs. The introduction and conclusion are clear. However, some main points lack sufficient support or development.
lexical resource
The vocabulary used shows a good range and you have used a mix of both common and less common terms appropriately. In the few instances where you selected less common words, you used them awkwardly. Practising more complex vocabulary can help you become more familiar with their usage and meaning.
grammatical range
The sentence structure is generally error-free and there is some evidence of a variety of complex structures. However, there are several grammatical errors which can impede meaning at times. Practise grammar exercises to improve in this area.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
