Task Achievement
Develop a clearer thesis statement in your introduction to immediately present your opinion and the main points you will discuss. This helps set a clear direction for your essay.
Coherence and Cohesion
Use a wider range of linking words and phrases to improve the flow and cohesion between your ideas. While some effort is made to connect ideas, more sophisticated linking can enhance readability.
Task Achievement
To provide a more complete response to the task, ensure you discuss both views substantively before presenting your own opinion. Also, strive to present this opinion more explicitly in the introduction and conclusion, making your overall position clearer to the reader.
Task Achievement
Include a wider variety of specific examples and detailed explanations to support your main points. While you provide some examples, more detailed and varied illustrations could enhance your argument, helping to achieve a higher score for task achievement.

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
