Coherence & Cohesion
Ensure that your arguments are logically structured and presented in a coherent manner. The essay lacks a smooth transition between ideas and could benefit from clearer linking expressions to enhance cohesion.
Task Achievement
Stick to the topic throughout your essay and avoid deviating from the main points. While your essay addresses the main question, the development of ideas is somewhat superficial, and examples are not fully fleshed out or particularly relevant.

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...?
