coherence cohesion
Your essay would benefit significantly from a clearer and more logical structure. It is important to use clear topic sentences at the beginning of each paragraph, followed by supporting sentences, and a concluding sentence that links back to the question. This ensures that your argument is easy to follow and coherent to the reader. Additionally, using transitional phrases to connect ideas between sentences and paragraphs can create a better flow.
task achievement
While you addressed the task prompt, the response could be more fully developed. Be sure to directly answer the question posed by clearly stating if there are more advantages or disadvantages to visiting new places, and providing balanced arguments for both sides before reaching a conclusion. This will demonstrate a complete understanding and engagement with the topic.

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
