task response
The essay provides a clear stance on the issue but could benefit from a more balanced discussion of both views. Consider dedicating more space to explaining why some believe that media attention is a reasonable price for fame and then provide counterarguments.
coherence cohesion
To strengthen the logical structure, consider making each paragraph's main point clearer and ensure that each idea flows smoothly into the next. Some paragraphs contain multiple points which might confuse the reader. Use clear topic sentences.
task response
Provide more specific examples to support your assertions. General statements without supporting evidence are less persuasive. Integrating more varied examples could strengthen your argument.
coherence cohesion
The essay has a clear conclusion that reiterates the main point, contributing to a sense of completeness.
coherence cohesion
The introduction effectively sets up the issue and states a clear viewpoint, engaging the reader from the beginning.

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
