Task Achievement
To improve Task Achievement, make sure your essay fully addresses all parts of the task. Include more varied and specific examples to support your opinions and make arguments more compelling. Consider both sides of the argument before clearly stating your own standpoint.
Coherence & Cohesion
To enhance the Coherence and Cohesion of your essay, focus on clearer transitions between paragraphs. Use a wider variety of linking words and phrases to show the relationships between ideas more effectively. Additionally, ensure that each paragraph has a clear main idea supported by concise examples or explanations.

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
