coherence cohesion
Your essay provides a basic structure with an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion, which is good. However, the logical flow between ideas could be clearer. In some instances, it seems like thoughts are disconnected, and transitions between points could be smoother. It would benefit from more varied conjunctions and better topic sentence construction to guide the reader through your argument more coherently.
task achievement
You addressed the task by discussing both the advantages and disadvantages as required. However, the depth of your ideas is somewhat limited, and your examples are not fully developed. In a higher band response, you would need to elaborate on your points more thoroughly and provide more detailed examples to illustrate your argument effectively. Make sure each paragraph has one clear main idea and that all parts of the task are addressed equally.

Your opinion

Don’t put your opinion unless you are asked to give it.

If the question asks what you think, you MUST give your opinion to get a good score.

Don’t leave your opinion until the conclusion.

Here are examples of instructions that require you to give your opinion:

...do you agree or disagree?...do you think...?...your opinion...?
