Nowadays technology is increasingly being used to monitor what people are saying and doing ( for example, through cellphone tracking and security cameras). In many cases, the people being monitored are unaware that this is happening. Do you think the advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages?

task achievement
Clarify your viewpoint in the introduction. You state that you strongly oppose the notion that monitoring destroys personal barriers, but make sure to clearly outline that your main argument supports the benefits of monitoring.
coherence and cohesion
Ensure subject-verb agreement, e.g., 'everyone has' instead of 'everyone have'. This will enhance the grammatical accuracy of your essay.
coherence and cohesion
Use linking words and phrases more effectively to improve the flow of your ideas. For example, use 'Furthermore' or 'Additionally' when introducing new points instead of 'On the other hand'.
task achievement
You provide relevant reasons for monitoring, such as crime prevention, which is a strong argument.
coherence and cohesion
The conclusion summarizes your viewpoint effectively, reiterating that monitoring can be crucial for safety.

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
