task achievement
Ensure a strong introduction by clearly stating your opinion on whether the trend of small shops being replaced by big stores is good or bad. This sets the tone and direction for your essay.
coherence and cohesion
Develop a clearer structure by organizing your essay into distinct paragraphs, each with a single main idea. This can include an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion.
task achievement
Use specific examples to support your points. While you mention brands like Louis Vuitton, elaborating on how exactly small shops can progress to become big stores with specific steps or strategies would strengthen your argument.
coherence and cohesion
Work on the flow of your essay by using linking words and phrases to connect ideas and paragraphs. This makes your writing more cohesive and easier to follow.
task achievement
Consider presenting both sides of the argument, even if you are advocating for one position. This shows a comprehensive understanding of the topic.
coherence and cohesion
Proofread your essay to correct grammatical errors and improve sentence structures for clarity and readability.

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
