coherence cohesion
The essay lacks a clear structure – there are no distinct introduction and conclusion sections. Introduce your topic in the beginning and summarize your findings at the end.
task achievement
Ensure each point is supported with clear evidence or examples. For example, you could provide actual statistics or trends for the mentioned countries to highlight differences.
coherence cohesion
Avoid repetition to make your essay concise and focused. Repeatedly stating the 'average number of students per class' does not add value to the essay.
task achievement
The essay briefly mentions relevant countries to compare average class sizes across different regions, which is a good starting point for analysis.
