task achievement
The essay addresses the topic, but the response is not fully developed. The introduction should clearly establish your position, and the conclusion should restate it with a sense of closure. Expand on your ideas with more depth and clarity for a complete response.
coherence cohesion
The logical structure needs improvement. Organize your essay with clear paragraphs for the introduction, body, and conclusion. Ensure each paragraph has a clear central idea and avoid repetitive statements.
task achievement
Your main points require further support. Include specific, detailed examples and reasons that persuasively back your view. Avoid vague statements and generalize less.

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
