Language accuracy
Despite minor grammatical and spelling errors, your essay provides a solid argument with supportive details. Consider proofreading to correct these small inaccuracies, as they can slightly distract from your overall message.
Paragraph structure
Your essay would benefit from a clearer structure in paragraphs. Although your main points are evident, using clear topic sentences at the beginning of each paragraph can help improve readability and coherence.
Developing arguments
You've done a good job discussing both views and providing examples. To further enhance your essay, try to integrate more specific examples to support your arguments, especially when discussing the benefits of handwriting.
Conclusion clarity
In your conclusion, try to provide a more definitive stance on your opinion. This will make your argument more persuasive and give the reader a clearer understanding of your perspective.
Balanced discussion
You've effectively discussed both sides of the argument, providing balanced consideration to handwriting and technological writing.
Effective introduction & conclusion
Your introduction and conclusion are present and provide a good framework for your essay. This structure helps to orient the reader and summarise your main points effectively.
Relevant support
You included relevant examples and reasoning to support your points, such as the impact of handwriting on creativity and the environmental benefits of digital writing.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
