Introduction and Conclusion
Ensure that the introduction and conclusion are clearly defined and effectively bookend the essay. The conclusion in your essay could be improved by reiterating your viewpoint and summarizing the main points more distinctively.
Paragraphing and Cohesion
Develop each main point in distinct paragraphs with clear topic sentences, and make sure that each paragraph flows logically to the next. Connect your ideas using a variety of linking words and cohesive devices to enhance readability.
Support and Examples
More attention is needed to fully extend and support your main points with relevant, specific examples. Examples should be developed to sufficiently illustrate your arguments and demonstrate a clear relationship to the main idea of the paragraph.
Task Response
A clear position must be presented and maintained throughout the essay. Support your arguments with specific reasons and examples. Avoid being repetitive, and ensure that each sentence contributes to your overall argument.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
