To enhance the introduction and conclusion, ensure your essay begins with a clear overview of the topic and ends with a summarised conclusion that reflects on the solutions provided.
complete response
For a complete response, ensure your essay fully addresses the question, covering all aspects of the topic. The conclusion was not present, which leaves your response feeling somewhat incomplete.
clear comprehensive ideas
To provide more comprehensive ideas, aim to develop your solutions further with more detailed examples or evidence. This can enrich your argument and support your main points more convincingly.
relevant specific examples
Incorporating more specific examples to back your points would strengthen your argument and make your analysis more convincing.

Your essay is well-structured, with a logical flow of ideas, making it easy for the reader to follow your argument.
supported main points
You effectively identified key problems and offered relevant solutions, which is a strong aspect of your task achievement.

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
