in your comment above it was my opinion such my experience like what i saw in the real life. So did you mean, i have to write like "in my opinion or in my view" in the first sentence, didn't it ?

What i mean is that you have to make your opinion concise. In your case, you have expressed your opinions obviously lengthy. Actually, introduction just contains thesis and your opinion ( sometimes, it has a HOOK if you want to make your intro appealing to the readers.) In short, just two or three sentences will do for your intro.

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task II The different of Life Culture in the past and in the modern era [8]

In theL ong time ago, people have had a different a life cultures like today.

The different cultures people love to stay in one place in a whole life but in the modern era people often live in several different places in their life.

With these different cultures, people loved to stay in one place in their whole life, but in today's time people often live in several different places permanently.

Actually, it will give the advantages both of such in the past they did not spend much money to move in another house and today, people will meet new people and they will find new experiences. However, the disadvantages in the past was they did not know about the different culture and in this time people live in several different places will give impact to their social relation, they have to follow the new culture. (Give your own point of view CONCISELY. You may just state that both different ideas have advantages and disadvantages. Then, expound them in your body para.)

Having fun sometimes gives us advantage and disadvantages depending on our folk view about it.

There are many people like games.

What do you mean?

Because it gives advantages and disadvantages especially for adults

Undergraduate / MIT essay, Boston; 'I do volunteering job in Boston with Arabs for Altruism' [9]

Since we know that the ability to use algebra specially "using equation" is helpful to set the solution in physics. I was thinking about making special course for Basic Algebra.

Combine these two sentences. You cannot separate them. Otherwise, it will be grammatically incorrect.

We opened two classes and added extra math skills with extra a month and all students who had filed in physics and math, after they attended the course they passed their exams with average "B" and some of them got "A" in physics and math.

This has several grammatical issues. So it should be better fixed this way.

Writing Feedback / Relying more on technology to solve problems let human ability deteriorate. [3]

This technology dependency issue is partly right for some specific people who are practicing their rudimentary academic skills;

This does not support the issue you are supposed to discuss.

As I have discussed earlier, technology, on the whole, does not have negative effect on human thinking ability except when misused during rudimentary academic practicing.

I am too with Priya. This is a good conclusion. However, you have to provide more examples to further discuss the topic. It seems that you have just pointed out the types of humans who will be affected by technology dependency. You better give more emphasis on how too much dependency on technology deteriorates the THINKING ABILITY OF HUMANS.

Good point: Structurally, you write well.

Essays / My process of learning - how to read and write over the years [6]

I am going to tell you about my process of, learning how to read and write over the years.

Avoid writing this way. This is only applicable in speaking, specifically reporting. Think first of a good introduction: 1. it is the first paragraph 2. it should not be lengthy/long 3. it should have thesis statement or main topic. The other one is the body (another paragraph). Here it's time for you to elaborate your topic by presenting general statements with specific details supporting them. It should be longer than your intro, of course. The last paragraph is conclusion( how will you conclude/summarize it?). This is the structure which you don't apply in your posted essay. Follow this first.

At the time it was tough understanding the concept of reading and writing, because it was a language I did not understand.

At that time it was difficult for me to understand the concept of reading and writing, because of the language used as a means of instruction.
