task achievement
Your task response is generally strong, as you address the question and provide relevant arguments. However, be careful about small grammar errors and the use of articles, like 'a life' should be 'life'. Make sure every point is precisely and fully developed.
coherence cohesion
For coherence and cohesion, your essay is organized logically with an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion. However, to improve further, work on using a wider range of cohesive devices (e.g., 'Moreover', 'Additionally') and make sure every sentence flows smoothly. Reduce the repetition of similar ideas, such as stress reduction both in work and daily life.
task achievement
You have clear main points in each paragraph that are relevant to the topic.

Use cohesive linking words accurately and appropriately

Linking words are very important in your essay.

To score effectively on your IELTS exam, you should make an effort to implement short concise sentences coupled with linking words.

Almost every sentence in your essay should have a linking word of some sort.

In fact, the only sentences that can omit linking words are your background sentence and thesis.

Linking word examples:

  • firstly
  • secondly
  • thirdly
  • in additional
  • moreover
  • also
  • for example
  • for instance
  • therefore
  • however
  • although
  • even though
  • despite
