coherence cohesion
The essay provides a clear introduction and conclusion, but could benefit from stronger, more varied connectives between ideas. Try to use a broader range of linking words and phrases to improve the flow of the essay.
coherence cohesion
Supporting main points with specific examples is crucial. Consider including real-world statistics, studies, or anecdotal evidence to better illustrate your points and strengthen your argument.
task achievement
The task has been addressed and there's an attempt to develop a response that covers the main points. However, for a higher score, expand on the ideas with more depth, complexity, and by considering different perspectives.

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
