task response
The essay does not fully address the prompt and lacks clarity in presenting comprehensive ideas. More specific examples and elaboration are needed to support the main points.
coherence and cohesion
The logical structure of the essay is somewhat unclear, and the introduction and conclusion need improvement. The essay would benefit from a clearer and more organized presentation of ideas.
lexical resource
The range of vocabulary and use of appropriate academic terminology are sufficient, but there is room for improvement in the precision and accuracy of word choice and phrasing.
grammatical range
While the essay demonstrates a generally accurate use of grammar, there are a few instances of awkward phrasing and errors in sentence structure. Greater variety in sentence structure and more complex grammatical constructions would enhance the essay.

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
