Coherence & Cohesion
Use a variety of cohesive devices effectively, such as linking words and referent pronouns, to connect sentences and paragraphs.

Task Achievement

Language
Avoid grammatical and spelling errors as they can hinder the clarity and impact of your arguments.
Lexical Resource
Work on a more natural and varied use of English vocabulary to more accurately express complex ideas.

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
