clarity
Try to enhance clarity and comprehensiveness in some areas by structuring your sentences more clearly. For example, instead of "...had better concentrate...cause... relied on the foundation," consider, "...should focus on the foundations, as the structural integrity of a building depends on them."
examples
Strengthen your argument by providing more detailed examples or data that support your viewpoints, especially in paragraphs discussing rapid and cheap accommodation needs.
task response
You've presented a balanced discussion of both perspectives, where each view is elaborated with reasons and examples, aligning with the task requirements.
relevant support
Effective use of geographical examples like Indonesia and Japan, which enhances the relevance of the argument to real-world occurrences.
coherence cohesion
Your introduction and conclusion clearly frame the argument, which is crucial for coherence.

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
