coherence cohesion
To enhance your score, focus on constructing clear and well-organized paragraphs. Each paragraph should contain one main idea and supporting sentences that expand on that idea cohesively.
coherence cohesion
Work on creating a more engaging introduction and a conclusive conclusion that summarizes your points effectively. Ensure your essay has a clear opening, body, and closing section to guide the reader through your argument.
task achievement
Support your main points with more developed examples and explanations. Aim to include at least one specific and detailed example per advantage or disadvantage to strengthen your argument.
task achievement
Ensure you fully address the prompt by discussing both the advantages and disadvantages with equal measure and depth. It seems like the disadvantage was not covered as thoroughly as the advantage.
task achievement
Strive to present clear and comprehensive ideas by avoiding vague statements. Each point you make should be well explained and directly related to the question prompt. Be precise in the way you convey your arguments.

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
