Task Achievement
To improve your task response, ensure that your essay fully addresses the prompt by discussing both sides of the argument, if applicable, and providing a more nuanced opinion. Try to offer deeper insights and a broader range of examples to demonstrate a sophisticated understanding of the topic.
Coherence and Cohesion
Enhance the logical structure of your essay by organizing your ideas more clearly. Consider using a wider range of linking phrases to improve the flow between sentences and paragraphs, and ensure that each paragraph has a clear main idea supported by specific examples or explanations.
Task Achievement
While your essay touches on several relevant examples, you could improve your score by incorporating more detailed and specific examples to support your arguments. This could involve mentioning specific studies, statistics, or theoretical grounds to add depth to your argument.

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
