Introduction
Ensure that your introduction clearly presents the topic and outlines the points of discussion. While your introduction is present, it could be more effectively structured by immediately establishing a clear overview of the perspectives you will discuss, followed by your thesis statement.
Main points
Your main body paragraphs should start with a clear topic sentence that states the main point. Follow this with supporting details and examples. Your current paragraphs lack clearly defined topic sentences and the supporting evidence is not fully developed, affecting task achievement. Work to expand and detail your supporting examples for stronger task response.
Coherence and cohesion
Make use of a range of conjunctions and cohesive devices to better link ideas between and within paragraphs. This essay exhibits a basic application of coherence but can greatly benefit from more complex structures that would improve the flow and readability.
Task response
Achieving a higher score requires fully responding to all parts of the prompt. This includes discussing both views and giving your own opinion. In your essay, clearly state your personal stance and ensure it's consistently referenced throughout the essay. Your conclusion should also clearly reflect this.
