task achievement
Ensure that you explore both views independently and in equal measure, and sufficiently develop each viewpoint with clear arguments and supporting details. Avoid uneven development of points which may not fully satisfy the requirement of presenting a balanced view of both sides.
coherence cohesion
Your essay needs to have a clear logical progression. Use a range of cohesive devices to structure your response appropriately. Your ideas are somewhat organized, but there are some abrupt jumps and a lack of clear topic sentences that guide the reader through your argument.

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
