task achievement
Your essay generally provides an answer to the question, but it needs more structure and clear division between different points. Try to make your points more distinct, and ensure each paragraph has a clear purpose.
coherence cohesion
Use transitional phrases to guide the reader through your argument. Phrases such as "However,", "On the other hand,", "In addition," can enhance the coherence and flow of your ideas.
coherence cohesion
Ensure each paragraph has a topic sentence that introduces the main idea you are addressing. Follow this with supporting details and examples.
task achievement
It’s clear that you have a viewpoint on this topic and are able to identify both positive and negative aspects of children's smartphone use.
coherence cohesion
The introduction and conclusion are present, establishing a framework for your response.

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
