Introduction & Conclusion
Ensure you have a clear introduction and conclusion that encompass the main ideas of your essay. Both should be distinct and summarize your stance well.
Logical Structure
Work on creating a logical flow in your essay. Make sure each paragraph clearly relates to the central topic and that ideas within paragraphs are well connected.
Supported Points
Support your main points with clear, specific examples. Examples should directly relate to the points made and be sufficiently developed.
Complete Response
Ensure that your response fully addresses all parts of the task. Your opinion should be clear throughout, and the essay should cover all aspects of the prompt.
Clear Ideas
Strive to express your ideas clearly and comprehensively. Ensure that the essay is easy to follow and that each point is articulated in a way that is straightforward for the reader to understand.
Specific Examples
Use examples that are relevant and specific to the point you are making. Avoid vague statements by providing concrete evidence or illustrations from real-life scenarios, when possible.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
