Introduction
The introduction is not entirely clear and lacks a proper thesis statement. It should provide a brief overview of the topic and your stance on the issue.
Structure
The logical structure of the essay is weak. Ideas should be more thoroughly developed and paragraphs should be clearly separated with one central idea per paragraph.
Cohesion
The essay lacks adequate cohesion. Use a range of cohesive devices to link ideas within and across paragraphs.
Supporting Arguments
The main points should be supported by clear, specific examples. Currently, the arguments are vague and lack depth.
Task Response
The essay does not fully address the task, as it only superficially explores the topic. You need to explore the advantages and disadvantages more deeply to provide a balanced view and a conclusive stance.
Grammar
There are several grammatical errors throughout the essay. Proofread your work to correct these and ensure that sentence structures are varied and correctly formed.
Conclusion
The conclusion provides a closure to the essay, but it should also summarise the key points discussed and restate your opinion. It must be clear and impactful.

Fully explain your ideas
