introduction
Ensure your introduction clearly states your position on the topic. It's important for your thesis statement to be clear and direct.
grammar
Use a variety of sentence structures to showcase linguistic range and improve readability. Simple and compound sentences should be combined with complex structures.
grammar
Be careful with subject-verb agreement and correct use of tenses throughout your essay.
grammar/spelling
Take care to correct spelling errors (e.g., 'eldery' should be 'elderly', 'through' should be 'throughout') and use articles where necessary.
coherence & cohesion
Enhance the logical flow of your essay by using linking words and phrases to connect ideas within and between paragraphs.
task response
Ensure your examples are clearly linked to your main points and fully developed. Try to provide detailed and relevant examples to support your arguments.
paragraphing
Work on paragraph structure, making sure each paragraph contains a single clear idea, explained well and supported with examples.
conclusion
Your conclusion should restate your position and summarize the main points of the essay. It should reinforce your argument without introducing new information.

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
