Band 4.5

In many cities, there are areas of land that are used as parks. With increasing population levels, these areas would be better used to provide more housing. Do you agree or disagree?

task achievement
While the essay addresses the main task and offers a clear stance, it is critical to ensure ideas are fully developed and supported with relevant examples. For instance, when mentioning the benefits of parks, concrete examples or studies showing their importance could strengthen the argument.
coherence cohesion
Ensure each paragraph focuses on a single main idea and that there is a logical flow from one point to the next. Some sentences are slightly disjointed, and transitions between ideas can be smoother. Also, expand on the conclusion to reinforce your stance and summarize key points.
language use
Review and edit the essay for minor grammatical errors and awkward phrasings, like "even though parks are important, but housing...". A clearer structure and more polished language will enhance readability.
task achievement
The essay presents a clear position on the topic, agreeing with the statement, and attempts to offer a balanced view by suggesting a compromise solution.
coherence cohesion
The introduction effectively sets up the main argument, and the conclusion, although brief, proposes a creative solution that tries to address both sides of the issue.

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
