coherence cohesion
Work on your logical structures to link ideas more coherently. Consider using transition words like 'however,' 'in addition,' and 'as a result' more frequently.
task achievement
Use more relevant and specific examples to support your points. For example, instead of saying 'many people want to purchase increasingly new cars,' you could mention actual statistics or studies that show the increase in car ownership in urban areas.
general
There are several grammatical and spelling errors that need to be addressed. For instance, 'inreasingly' should be 'increasingly', 'unusing from own cars' should be 'not using personal cars,' and 'emerging issues are different shuch as' should be 'emerging issues such as.'
task achievement
You’ve clearly identified the issues related to overpopulation in urban areas, such as traffic congestion and air pollution.
coherence cohesion
You have provided a structured introduction and conclusion, which helps to frame your discussion effectively.
task achievement
You suggest practical solutions, like promoting public transport and online shopping, which are relevant to the problems identified.

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
