task achievement
Ensure that your introduction sets the context for the maps accurately. Mention directly that you are describing two maps comparing the change in the layout of a health centre, not a student building.
task achievement
Be more precise in your descriptions. Instead of 'the dormitory witnessed radical changes', it would be better to state 'the health centre underwent significant modifications.'. Also, clarify that these changes occurred between 2005 and the present day.
coherence and cohesion
Use transitions and conjunctions to improve the flow of information. For instance, 'Additionally,' or 'Moreover,' can connect sentences that describe further changes.
task achievement
In the summary, mention all main features in both Plan A and Plan B. This includes not only what has been changed or added, but also what has remained the same.
coherence and cohesion
Structure your essay clearly with an introduction, body paragraphs dedicated to Plan A and Plan B, followed by a conclusion that summarises the main changes.
