structure
Ensure that your essay has a clear introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion. The introductory paragraph should set the topic and outline the advantages and disadvantages that will be discussed.
content development
Your main points should be clearly presented with separate paragraphs for each advantage or disadvantage. Develop each of these with supporting sentences that expand on the point.
examples
Include specific, relevant examples that demonstrate the advantages and disadvantages mentioned. Abstract statements lack the convincing element that examples provide.
cohesion
Use a variety of linking words and phrases to connect your ideas and paragraphs. Review use of cohesive devices to ensure they are enhancing the flow of the essay, not causing confusion.
balance of argument
Your essay appears to lean more towards supporting teenagers working part-time without thoroughly examining the disadvantages, affecting the balance of your argument. Be sure to address the prompt evenly.
sentence structure
Watch out for sentences that are too long or complex, as they can become unclear or even have grammatical errors. Use a mix of simple and complex sentences to maintain clarity.

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
