introduction conclusion present
Your essay introduction provides a clear statement of your position, which is excellent. However, it's lacking a broader context. Try to start with a general statement about technology and then lead into your thesis statement.
supported main points
You need to develop your main points fully, providing supporting evidence and specific examples where relevant. This will strengthen your argument.
logical structure
Your essay has a clear position, but ensure that each paragraph is cohesive with clear links between sentences and ideas. This will help enhance the overall logical structure.
complete response
To achieve a higher score, make sure to address all parts of the prompt and fully develop your response. Use specific examples to illustrate your points and elaborate on your arguments.
clear comprehensive ideas
Your ideas are clear, but providing more comprehensive arguments and explanations would enhance your response.
introduction conclusion present
You clearly state your position on the issue, which is important for a well-organized essay.
clear comprehensive ideas
The language used in your essay is clear and comprehensible, making your ideas easy to follow for the reader.

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
