Language accuracy
Ensure consistency in spelling (benefit not 'benifit', established not 'extabilish', weigh not 'overweigh') and grammar for clarity and professionalism.
Sentence variability
Try to diversify your sentence structures to enhance the readability of your essay.
Tone of writing
Use formal language consistently avoiding informal terms or expressions.
Task response
You made a clear argument emphasizing the advantages of taking risks, addressing the essay topic directly.
Essay structure
Your essay was well-structured with a clear introduction, body, and conclusion.
Use of examples
You provided concrete examples (Ma Yun, Steve Jobs) to support your arguments, making your essay more persuasive.

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
