clear comprehensive ideas
You should aim to make your ideas clearer and more comprehensive. Try to elaborate on each point and add specific examples to strengthen your arguments. For instance, when you mention that reduced workdays help with relaxation, you could explain how this impacts long-term productivity.
relevant specific examples
Provide more specific examples to illustrate your points. For example, when you mention that reduced workdays contribute to worker's health, you could provide specific statistics or case studies that highlight this.
logical structure
Improve coherence by ensuring that your points logically flow and are well-connected. Use appropriate linking words and phrases to make transitions smoother.
introduction conclusion present
Your essay would benefit from a stronger introduction and conclusion. The introduction should clearly outline the main points you will discuss, and the conclusion should succinctly summarize these points.
supported main points
Support your main points with more substantial evidence and examples. This will enhance the credibility and effectiveness of your argument.
complete response
Your essay addresses the task adequately and presents a generally clear position on the topic.

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.
