introduction
Ensure that your introduction clearly presents the topic and your viewpoint. While you did state an agreement with the idea of imposing higher taxes on fast food, make sure to offer a concise thesis statement that outlines the main points you will discuss.
paragraph structure
Work on organizing your paragraphs in a logical manner. Each paragraph should have a clear topic sentence followed by supporting sentences that expand on that main idea. It will help the reader follow your argument more easily.
supporting examples
Support your main points with clear, specific examples. While you mention the United States and diseases, try to include statistics or real-world examples that directly support the argument that higher taxes on junk food will reduce health issues.
cohesion
For coherence, aim for smoother transitions between ideas and paragraphs. Using phrases such as 'firstly', 'secondly', and 'furthermore' is a start, but also consider connective phrases that show cause-and-effect or contrast.
conclusion
Ensure that the conclusion effectively summarizes your points and restates your argument. It should bring closure to your essay, touching on the key points discussed.
grammar & vocabulary
Carefully check your grammar and vocabulary throughout the essay. Even though you can convey your message, there are several grammatical errors and awkward phrasings that can confuse the reader. Use complex sentence structures appropriately and watch for subject-verb agreement as well as correct use of articles and prepositions.

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
