task achievement
Ensure your essay directly addresses the topic of the prompt. Your essay should focus on the extent to which you agree or disagree with the statement that advertising increases the sales of unnecessary products. Provide a clear thesis statement reflecting your stance.
coherence and cohesion
Organize your essay with a clear introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion. The introduction should introduce the topic and your opinion, the body paragraphs should support your opinion with explanations and examples, and the conclusion should summarize your arguments and restate your opinion.
task achievement
Develop and support your main points with specific examples and explanations that are relevant to the topic of advertising and consumer behavior. Avoid discussing off-topic issues or personal anecdotes that do not directly support your argument about advertising.
coherence and cohesion
Use clear topic sentences at the beginning of each paragraph to guide the reader through your argument. Ensure that each paragraph focuses on a single main point and that all sentences within the paragraph relate to that point.
coherence and cohesion
Transition smoothly between ideas and paragraphs using appropriate linking words and phrases to maintain a cohesive narrative flow. This helps the reader to understand how your arguments are connected and the progression of your thoughts.
coherence and cohesion
Revise the essay to include a clear conclusion that summarizes the key points discussed and reinforces your response to the essay prompt.

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
