Coherence and Cohesion
Ensure that your essay has a clear and logical structure. Introduce each paragraph with a topic sentence and follow it up with supporting details. The connection between your ideas can be strengthened by using a wider range of cohesive devices.
Task Achievement
Use a range of sentence structures and vocabulary to articulate ideas more precisely and to add interest to your writing. Avoid overgeneralizations by providing specific examples and explanations for your claims.
Coherence and Cohesion
For a higher score in coherence and cohesion, aim for clear progression of ideas, using paragraphing effectively and incorporating a variety of linking words. Be sure to have a distinct introduction and conclusion that encapsulate your main points.
Task Achievement
To improve task achievement, ensure that your response fully addresses all parts of the prompt. Develop your points fully and provide specific, relevant examples. Balancing the discussion of advantages and disadvantages will result in a more comprehensive essay.

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
