grammar
Pay close attention to spelling and grammar, as errors can significantly impact the clarity of your arguments. For instance, 'enployees' should be 'employees,' 'shelters, foods and unilities' should be 'shelter, food, and utilities,' and 'neccessary' should be 'necessary'. Aim for error-free writing to achieve a higher score.
coherence cohesion
To improve coherence and cohesion, ensure that your essay has a clear and logical structure. Develop your main points with adequate support, and use a range of cohesive devices effectively. Organize your paragraphs clearly with topic sentences that signal the main idea and subsequent sentences that develop this idea with explanations or examples.
task achievement
To fully address the task, make sure to directly and clearly respond to the prompt. Provide specific examples to support your arguments where possible, and ensure that these examples are fully developed and relevant to the topic. You briefly mentioned practical learning in dream jobs, but providing a more relevant, concrete example would strengthen your position.

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.
