task response
The essay addresses the prompt but lacks strong and clear arguments. The examples provided are not fully relevant to the topic and do not support the main points effectively. More specific and pertinent examples should be included to improve task achievement.
coherence cohesion
The logical structure of the essay is somewhat clear, but the ideas are not well-developed and lack coherence. There is a need for better organization of the ideas for a more coherent and cohesive essay.
lexical resource
The essay demonstrates a limited range of vocabulary and lacks precision. More varied and appropriate vocabulary should be used to convey the ideas effectively and to enhance the lexical resource.
grammatical range
There are several grammatical errors throughout the essay, including tense inconsistency, word choice, and sentence structure. A more careful proofreading and attention to grammar and sentence structure is necessary to improve the grammatical range.

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
