Coherence & Cohesion
Ensure smoother transitions between paragraphs and within the body of your essay to enhance the flow of ideas. Consider using more linking phrases and topic sentences that clearly signal the direction of your argument.
Coherence & Cohesion
You've done well to introduce and conclude your essay with clear statements regarding your stance. To improve, work on tying the conclusion back to your introduction more explicitly, reinforcing your argument and making your essay come full circle.
Coherence & Cohesion
To strengthen your main points, consider including more varied and detailed examples. These can help support your arguments more robustly and make your essay more convincing.
Task Achievement
You've addressed the main question but to score higher, ensure that your response covers all aspects of the prompt more fully. This includes examining contrasting viewpoints and explaining why you favour one over the other.
Task Achievement
To achieve a clearer and more comprehensive presentation of ideas, structure your paragraphs more effectively. Each should start with a clear main idea, followed by supporting details or examples, and a concluding sentence that links back to the essay's overall argument.
Task Achievement
Incorporate more precise and varied examples to substantiate your arguments. This enriches your essay, demonstrates a wider knowledge of the topic, and satisfies the requirement for a response that is both relevant and illustrated with specific examples.

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
