task achievement
Your essay addresses the topic, but it could be more fully developed. Make sure to provide a balanced view on why home ownership might be important, considering not only social status but also other possible reasons such as security, investment, or cultural values. Expand your main points with more detailed explanations and examples.
coherence cohesion
You should work on the structure of your essay. It's important to have a clear introduction stating what you will discuss, followed by body paragraphs that each contain a main idea supported by examples or explanations, and a conclusion that summarizes your points and restates your opinion. Use linking words and phrases to connect ideas within and between sentences more effectively.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
