coherence cohesion
Ensure that your essay has clear and logically sequenced paragraphs. Some of your ideas can be more tightly structured for a smoother flow.
task achievement
Try to avoid minor spelling and grammatical errors (e.g., 'enciironment' should be 'environment', 'reaearch' should be 'research'). These small mistakes can distract the reader.

Support your points with more specific examples or statistical data when possible, to make your arguments stronger.
coherence cohesion
Consider using synonyms and varying sentence structures to avoid repetition and enhance readability.
task achievement
You have covered both aspects of the question (what individuals and the government can do) comprehensively.
coherence cohesion
Your introduction and conclusion are well-framed and clearly address the essay prompt.
task achievement
The main points in your essay are mostly well-supported and relevant to the topic.

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
