Introduction
Develop a clear introduction that explicitly states the essay topic and your standpoint. Starting with 'Some people say' immediately introduces others' viewpoints but doesn't establish your thesis clearly.
Paragraphing and Structure
Work on paragraph structure. While you've attempted to discuss both views and your opinion, blending them together rather than separating them into clear, distinct paragraphs makes your essay lack coherence. One idea per paragraph is a good rule.
Supporting Examples
Incorporate specific examples to support your points. Your arguments about the importance of rest and real-life working experience would be strengthened by real-life scenarios or statistics.
Conclusion
Concluding, make it a point to summarize your discussion succinctly, reiterating your viewpoint clearly rather than introducing new ideas.
Task Response
Ensure your standpoint throughout the essay is consistent. While discussing various perspectives, it's crucial that your own viewpoint remains clear and unambiguous to the reader.

Fully explain your ideas
