task response
Your response addresses both problems and solutions, but a few of your ideas could be more clearly developed. Try to elaborate more on specific examples or case studies.
coherence and cohesion
There are occasional grammatical errors and awkward phrases that affect the readability of your essay. For instance, "A growing number of aviability" should be "growing availability," and "considerable amount of treedom" likely meant "amount of freedom." Proofreading your work or using tools like Grammarly can help catch these mistakes.
introduction conclusion
You effectively introduce and conclude your essay, which helps frame your argument clearly.
logical structure
The essay has a logical structure with both problems and solutions well-organized.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
