structure
Ensure there's a clear introduction, body, and conclusion. Your essay should have a thesis statement or a clear argument in the introduction, which is referenced in the conclusion.
task response
The ideas presented need to be explored in more depth, considering both sides of the argument to provide a balanced view. Consider the negative implications as well as the positive to give a more comprehensive response to the prompt.
coherence
Use a wider range of cohesive devices and paragraphing to make the progression of ideas clearer. Aim to have a topic sentence for each body paragraph and develop that idea fully with explanations or examples before starting a new paragraph.
examples
Incorporate more relevant examples to support your points. These should be specific and ideally real-world examples to demonstrate a clear understanding of the topic.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
