Task Achievement
Ensure that there is a clear thesis statement at the end of the introduction to guide the reader through the argument. The conclusion should also clearly restate your position and summarize the main points.
Coherence & Cohesion
The logical structure of the essay could be improved by ensuring the topic sentences clearly state the main idea of each paragraph. Transitions between paragraphs should be smooth and logical.
Task Achievement
Ideas should be developed more fully with specific examples. General statements need to be supported by detailed reasons or data to strengthen the argument.
Coherence & Cohesion
Work on the range of cohesion devices used. Try to incorporate a greater variety of linking words and phrases to help sentences and paragraphs flow together more naturally.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
