While
 there are some benefits associated with the advent of

,I believe the main drawbacks are more substantial. On the one hand, a potential advantage of

 may be bringing the opportunity of driving for specific groups of
people
 who are unable to drive
due to
 their physical status or law.

Furthermore

 or children who are under 18 to enjoy travelling and will bring them a sense of satisfaction.Another perceived benefit is that

coherence cohesion
The essay generally follows a coherent structure, with an introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion. However, the logical flow between ideas can be improved with better transition phrases and clearer progression of thoughts. The introduction could be more effectively articulated to clearly outline the following arguments.
coherence cohesion
Each paragraph contains a central idea which generally supports the main argument, but at times, these main points could be further developed with more specific examples and analysis. This would strengthen the overall argument and provide a more persuasive essay.
task achievement
The essay successfully addresses the task, providing arguments for both advantages and disadvantages of driverless vehicles. The conclusion is present and reflects the content, although it could be stronger in making a definitive stance that directly responds to the question of whether the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. The ideas are clear, but the writer should aim for more comprehensive exploration and include more detailed examples to substantiate the claims.

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
