coherence cohesion
To enhance logical structure, the essay should include clear transitions between points and ensure paragraphing logically guides the reader through the argument. This includes crafting topic sentences that clearly indicate the main idea of each paragraph, and ensuring that subsequent sentences build on that idea without deviation or repetition.
coherence cohesion
Introduction and conclusion are present and function adequately, although they could be strengthened. The introduction should explicitly state the essay's position and outline the structure of the discussion. The conclusion ought to succinctly summarize the arguments made, restating the essay's position in a manner that leaves a firm impression on the reader.
coherence cohesion
The essay presents supported main points, but the use of examples is occasionally general rather than specific. Examples cited should be clearly linked to the argument, relevant, and specific, providing concrete evidence for claims made.
task achievement
The essay largely completes the task with a response that is generally aligned with the prompt. To enhance this further, ensure that the essay thoroughly addresses all parts of the task, demonstrating a clear understanding by differentiating between various perspectives where necessary.
task achievement
The ideas presented are clear and comprehensive, affording the reader an adequate understanding of the argument. To improve, ensure clarity by defining key terms where necessary and exploring nuances in the argument. Introducing counterarguments and rebuttals could also provide depth to the analysis.
task achievement
Examples used are relevant to the argument but could provide a deeper level of specificity. Each example should be carefully chosen to illustrate the point being made vividly and memorably. To improve, select examples that have a clear connection to the young people's experience and that demonstrate the real-world impact of athletes as role models.

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
