Try to include more specific details in your examples to strengthen your arguments. For instance, providing statistical data or studies related to healthcare improvements in megacities can give your essay more weight.

Ensure the balance of contrasting points is maintained. While you provided points on both sides of the argument, some sections could benefit from further development to make your stance clearer.
coherence and cohesion
Refrain from using repetitive phrases such as "Hanoi Medical University Hospital, or Bach Mai Hospitals...". Instead, use different ways to express similar points, which will enhance the readability of your essay.

The essay is generally well-organized with appropriate paragraphing, making it easy to follow the writer's points.
task achievement
Each main idea is supported with relevant examples, which contributes to a clear and comprehensible argument.

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
