Introduction & Conclusion
To enhance your essay, try to provide a more detailed introduction and conclusion that encapsulate your view and the essay content more clearly. This will immediately set your stance and summarise your argument more impactfully for the reader.
Coherence & Cohesion
Consider using a wider variety of sentence structures and transition words to improve the flow and readability of your essay. This will help in connecting your ideas more smoothly and enhance the overall coherence.
Examples
Integrating more specific examples from real-life situations or studies could strengthen your argument further. While you mentioned 'fast fashion,' providing detailed instances or data could make your argument more persuasive and relatable.
Precision in Argument
Be wary of generalizations and aim for precision in your language. For example, when discussing the negative aspects of advertising and product life cycles, provide specific evidence or a balanced view to support your claims without oversimplification.
Understanding of Task
Your essay successfully addresses the prompt by discussing the emphasis on 'newness' in advertisements and its implications, showing a clear understanding of the task.
Clear Stance
You articulated a clear stance against the argument, which is consistent throughout the essay, enhancing the coherence of your argument.
Depth of Argument
Your discussion on environmental impact and consumer culture adds depth to your argument, illustrating an ability to connect the topic to broader social issues.

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
