Ensure that you clearly restate the task requirements in the introduction and summarize them in the conclusion. In this essay, the introduction and conclusion were not clearly identifiable and did not encapsulate the main points effectively.

Work on creating a more logical flow within the essay. Use transitional phrases to smoothly connect ideas between sentences and paragraphs. Consider organizing each paragraph around a single main idea and using supporting sentences to develop that idea.

Support your main ideas with clear, relevant examples. Avoid general statements that do not provide concrete evidence to back up your points. Provide specific examples or statistics where possible to strengthen your argument.
complete response
Address the task directly and make sure your response is complete. Each part of the prompt should be answered clearly, and ideas should be expanded on to show a full understanding of the topic. Ensure there is a balanced discussion of both causes and solutions regarding illiteracy rates.
clear comprehensive ideas
Develop ideas comprehensively. Avoid superficial treatment of the subject. Take time to elaborate on points made, ensuring they are well-explained and that the reader is not left with unanswered questions.
relevant specific examples
Use relevant and specific examples to back up your points. These can come from personal experience, observations, or external sources. Make sure they are directly related to the point being made and contribute to the overall argument.
