work
 space to reduce the usage of energy
such
 as electricity and gas. In

 from the office has some advantages made by the study of today's situation with the energy consumption by office buildings.
Firstly
, as the results of research say the main advantage is consuming less energy when employees have online days on their
work
.
Secondly
,
this
 idea may help with another problem
such
 as traffic jams on the busiest days like Monday and Friday, because after and before the holidays employees don'
t
 have to go on their own or public transport to their usual
work
 zones.
Moreover
, one more advantage is the mental health of coworkers because they may have some days without overcrowded offices which would help solve some conflicts between them.
On the other hand
, we have some minuses that would impact many people or companies. The main disadvantage of
this
 decision is that many employees don'
t
 have another place of
work
 as a coworking zone and they don'
t
 have an opportunity to do tasks from home be many reasons.
Similarly
 problem is about the environment that workers can'
t
 have at home,
hence
 companies have to pay for the environment and bills of different places
such
 as cafes or coworking zones.
To conclude
, even with the cons in
this
 topic, we have enough strong pluses that show many positive findings of the decision to reduce hours spent in the office.

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
