coherence cohesion
Ensure each paragraph begins with a clear topic sentence to establish the main point, with subsequent sentences providing evidence or examples that directly support the point. Maintain focus by linking ideas logically.
coherence cohesion
Proofread your essay to correct grammatical errors and improve sentence structure. Varied and complex sentence forms can enhance clarity and display a higher proficiency in English.
task achievement
Develop your main points more fully. Each advantage or disadvantage should be explored in more depth with clear examples. Make sure these examples are directly relevant to the point you're trying to make.
task achievement
Your response to the task prompt should be complete, addressing all aspects of the question. Aim for balance in discussing both advantages and disadvantages, providing clear commentary on each point raised.

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
