Task Achievement
Ensure the introduction clearly outlines your stance on the topic, providing a brief overview of the reasons supporting your view to prepare the reader for what follows.
Task Achievement
Enhance task achievement by ensuring each paragraph thoroughly discusses a single main idea, supported by specific, detailed examples. Avoid general statements without concrete examples.
Coherence and Cohesion
For coherence and cohesion, begin paragraphs with clear topic sentences that signal the main idea to the reader, followed by supporting sentences that flesh out this idea with examples or explanations.
Coherence and Cohesion
Use a variety of linking words and phrases to connect ideas within and across paragraphs smoothly, without over-reliance on any single connector, to improve logical flow and coherence.
Coherence and Cohesion
Conclude the essay with a strong, concise summary of your arguments, restating your stance on the issue in light of the points made. This helps reinforce your position and leaves a lasting impression on the reader.

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
