Task Achievement
To improve Task Achievement, focus on providing more specific examples to support your arguments. Rather than speaking generally about students and young people, offer anecdotes, studies, or statistics that demonstrate the trends and solutions you discuss.
Coherence and Cohesion
For Coherence and Cohesion, aim to connect your ideas more seamlessly. Use a wider range of linking words and phrases to show relationships between ideas. Also, consider organizing paragraphs so that each one introduces its main idea in the first sentence, followed by supporting information and examples.
Coherence and Cohesion
Work on varying your sentence structures to add complexity and interest to your writing. Complex sentences can help demonstrate your language proficiency and make your arguments more nuanced.
Coherence and Cohesion
Review and correct grammatical errors and typos throughout the essay. Pay special attention to subject-verb agreement, correct tense usage, and article use. This will enhance the clarity and professionalism of your writing.
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
