Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 1: The Arresting Percentage of Societies in Five Years Ending 1994 [3]

such as drink driving, public drinking, breach of order, assault, and theft.

Fast forward to your preceding IELTS report, I' ve told you that such phrases can be categorized as "shopping list", putting the information one fact after another. When it comes to the real exam, I am sure that you'll have points deducted being with this list. Listen, in IELTS you are tested in how good you deal with contrast and comparison patterns and the key-trend selection.

A closer look at my intro;
A breakdown of the proportion of males and females who who had just placed under arrested from 1989 to 1994 is presented in the pie chart, while the bar chart shows motivation behind the cases. As it can be seen, the total figures for males sent to jail were higher than those of females. In any case, there did seem to be common reason that people all got arrested with regard to public drinking.

The outward appearance of the the library and IT center lying in the northwest of the map has been further expanded to the shuttle bus terminal.

Follow the footpath, they built Science Laboratories and Lecture Theater on the north east.

A footpath connecting the Science Laboratories and Lecture Theater leads to the north east of the map

In contrast, on the 1985's map

Well, if I were you, then I'd merely focus on the changes. This means that today's development has more chances to be discussed.

Writing Feedback / Role of popular events in calming tensions between countries? IELTS Task 2 [2]

Million of people allover the world wait ... .

I think this is good writing. Yet, you failed to present your claim, as this is the most important way in introduction. If you lacks this, then readers do not know what you are trying to argue. Here is my sample;

Nationalism involves strong emotions, feeling and actions. As such, it is agreed that the World Cup football match and the Olympics can be necessary to bind people for international relations. While this notion is utterly acceptable, I would argue that these worldwide events may be a trigger for further tensions amongst countries

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 2 Reading for developing imaginations and languages skills than TV. [3]

Your starting sentence needs polishing . Listen, when you are asked to write an essay that works, you have to grab readers' attention and make them want to read your essay. I am sure every essayist will agree with the fact. A hook, a catchy phrase, can be one of strategies you can use to do so. You do not have to work too hard on it ,but start with something simple. If you have a difficulty with a hook, then start straight away with the background by restating the prompt with your own words. Eventually, you need to create an outline to help readers categorize your main points. Listen, you have to write at least three sentences in one paragraph so as that you have more rooms for discussion. As an EF contributor and English teacher in English Studio Pare, I suggest students for this. If you write less than the required ones, then there will be no coherence among paragraphs. Let me give a try;

Building creativity with imaginations and ability in skills will be valuable in reading section than on television. I agree with this statement that I consider about how the way of brain creates something new on new reading activity.

Developing language skills and imagination is hard to master. As such, it is agreed that reading brings immense benefits, since such an activity provides an active learning for learners. However, some others argue that TV offers pictorial record to help people learn faster. In my view, I believe that reading nourishes people brain so as that they could expand their knowledge and awareness.

hope this helps :D

First and foremost,earlier developmentthe influx of technology has become the most influenced sector in society'severyday life. Almost every aspect of what people need is using technology (This idea sounds repetitive and brings no value, so I omit it) . Furthermore, technology ..., which technology? are you talking about the past or recent ones? has developed rapidly due to competitive issues in global, (STOP HERE) thus, it has given tremendous benefits ??? what are they? Listen, body paragraph needs in-depth discussion. What you present here is too vague for changes of ordinary society. However, it would become harmful if the technological development will increase continuously in the future. There are several negative impacts to deal with.( One paragraph consist of one main idea. As I see here, you are trying to hit and run this ideas with the preceding one. I strongly suggest breaking this into the new one._For instance... (when you raise an example, it is always good to ask journalistic questions to make an detailed example ).

I did not check the flow of the sentence, since there do seem to be common grammatical problems that must be solved. I suggest checking your basic grammar prior to submitting here. If you don't what to do with this, then ask your personal tutors to guide you, both grammar and flow of the sentences.

2. Overview (briefly talk about the most obvious trends)

Welcome to EF, I am eddy ,one of EF contributors, will show you how write a very powerful introduction in IELTS task 2.
In this era, technology becomes hot issues in worldwide. Some ...
This opening paragraph is good. Yet, there do seem to be a common flaw for the paragraph constructed. When it comes to the introductory paragraph, students are more likely to leave such a paragraph running without outline. By doing so, the intro brings no value. Let me give a try:

(1) An invention makes life more pleasant. (2) As such, it is agreed that early technologies offered significant advantages. The converse would appear to be true for ones claiming cutting-edge technologies have taken over the world. (3) Therefore, I would argue that recent devices are bound to alter human identity

Well, for me, I have place lots of confidence in the structure I suggest for IELTS students on this forum. In fact it is not something I invented or created, but a structure that I found doing some research on books

1. HOOK- a catchy phrase. It is not necessary to include this,but nevertheless such a way makes your intro more appealing.
2. Background information- simply reword the prompt given.
3. Thesis + Outline- write your claim here.

Hope this helps, - eddy suaib.

In this essay, I will look at some of the arguments for and against living in block of flats.

This is good. However, you need to show that you have very strong argument(s). To do so, presenting an outline prior to ending the intro is a worthwhile idea. But nevertheless, some students failed to present such a way. Let me give a try for the intro ;

Living in residential tower is arguable. Despite of some opinions ...
People have different preferences where to live. It is believed that living in a tall apartment block offers lonesome experience. This seems to be true but nevertheless, others argue that people living such a place are more likely to build close-knit community compared to ones who are in residential houses. Therefore, I would argue that apartment blocks offers more comfortable ambiance

I suggest constructing your introductory paragraph with a formal tone. To tackle this issue, you need a passive form. by doing so, the intro looks more appealing. I am completely confidence to tell you such a way.

A breakdown of the proportion of revenue sources and amount of money spent in a charity event in the USA over 12-month period is presented in the two pie charts. As seen, there is a slight gap between the amount of revenue and expenditures in total charity. In any case, the proportion of donated food breaks a record as the majority of the income, while the conserve would be noted in program services.

However Community Schools became interesting one to discuss because the trend witnessed slightly increase since 2000.did seem to be remarkable range of record attendance in different schools. As seen, the proportion of the students enrolling Voluntary-Controlled Schools showed by far the most impressive start, but then decreased dramatically.This was in stark contrast to the figure for Community Schools over the period in question.

Noted, introduction plays an important role in IELTS writings. For this reason, I suggest learning more how to write an appropriate one. This can be done by reading sample answer as many as you can.

Life cycle of the silkworm is illustrated by the diagram and picture. At first glance, it is evident that, silkworms experience their life in five stages and spend approximately 10 weeks from eggs to become moths.

This is good. Yet, it seems that you are trying to use BIG words, which interrupt the flaws.
Human beings' reliance too much on others is natural behaviour. This idea is true when it comes to the bygone era. Past life led people to be more dependent, since they lived in strong close-knit community, while I believed that the converse would be appear to be true for today's life due to the frantic pace.

Writing Feedback / Televised Talent Shows Have Become Popular In Many Societies. [3]

The greatest path to [...]
... satisfaction like moral support.

As I read, this is very good attempt. Yet, the paragraphs contains lots of BIG words and uncommon English expression. And as a result, some sentences interrupt the flow. I suggest rewriting this with a simple way. A closer look at my sample;

Today's TV programs focus too much on talent shows. As such, the proliferation of people watching the shows has grown in widespread popularity. It is believed that the best way to make people famous is to conduct such shows, while others argue that it is no more than just an entertainment program. Therefore, I would agree that the main objective of the shows is to entertain the viewers.

All in all, I think program [...]
... audience to be more active.

Since I have some changes in the opening paragraph, it is necessary to show you how to keep your conclusion succinctly and to the point. Here is my sample:

In conclusion, although the benefit of TV programs, particularly talent shows, helps people become famous, some still feel that such shows merely offer popular entertainment programs. However, as long as people keep in mind the main purpose of such shows, there do seem to be that we all are not being addicted.

Writing Feedback / Companies should allocate a certain percentage of job positions to women. Do you agree? [4]

Hi..., this essay is good. Yet, the introduction stated is too long. Your task is only simply restate the prompt given. Then, you need to present your claim, which should be debatable. By doing so, I believe that your opening paragraph looks more appealing.

As many students do, when it comes to the body paragraphs, the task is to introduce your claim by stating a good sentence for the topic. Here, you merely need to express your topic with the simple sentence structure. Then this is followed by an example. I did not see you write any detailed example in these bodies. This is the biggest mistake that could deduct your score. You can start asking journalistic questions: 5W + 1H. This formula leads you to have better example.

Last but not least, prior to closing your essay, you have to write a very powerful concluding paragraph. A concluding paragraph consists of a signal paragraph, like 'to sum up', all in all', 'in conclusion', etc. Afterwards, restating your point of view taken from the thesis statement is a must. Which means that you try to recall the information to the readers. Finally, it is always good to leave your personal thought in the end of the sentences. There are many ways to do that. One of them is your render suggestion. By doing so, your conclusion shuns being repetitive.

Good luck, mate.

Hence, it is argued that students with online-learning activities tend to gain more insights rather than those who prefer taking traditional classroom. However, the latter study method bring more benefits, such as better human interaction and immediate support.

In conclusion, it seems to me that technology needs the intervention of human skills. By doing so, it is more likely to gain a more efficiency way to accomplish job. Where possible, serious consequence on technology reliance should be taken into consideration.

Writing Feedback / 【TOEFL】Do students learn more effectively in team work? [5]

This paragraph is good. You need a slight improvement on the way you arrange the sentence. Here is my try;
When it comes to working in a team, students are more likely to have more opportunities to learn a school subject in details. This chance leads them to have better understanding of the subject. According to psychology research, the scientists discovered that the students who worked in a group had better learning effect due to the collaboration and the discussion between team members. If a student is too shy to ask questions during the class, then she can discuss the subject with their team members of what she is confused, and this has meant that she with her peers has conducted effective learning. As a result, the opportunities to gain comprehension of the size of the subject are fully open rather than those who study alone.

Writing Feedback / 【TOEFL】Do students learn more effectively in team work? [5]

I will be giving three reasons in the following paragraph.

It is always good to mention what the outlines are. This helps readers follow the logical order from the intro to the body paragraphs. Let me give a try for your intro;

Working in a team broadly educates people. As such, some people argue that students are better to work together so as that they could lean with peers. While some say that this tends to lead drawbacks to students, it is argued that team work helps students gain more valuable insights, such as communication skill improvement, sharing information and work responsibility.

- The body paragraph 2 is too weak. I did not see any overall progression, since you use too many "somethings" which are a vague phrase. Try to define clearly what you want to argue there. by doing so, your paragraph looks more appealing :D

Good luck for the exam

Such entertainment introduces people insights about today's world from their own home without having to venture out at all.

Some people argue that tourism could effect the traveler destinations negatively. The effects are primarily related to issues of global warming and man-made climate change

Tourism brings adverse effects. It is believed that human-induced-global warming and climate change, since negative behaviors in tourisms appear around the attractions. Not only this, I would argue that mass tourism is also negatively associated with long-term socio-economic tourist areas .

As see, I break my opening paragraph into three sentences. The first one is called a hook. Some students shun writing a hook in IELTS, since it is unnecessary. However, your intro looks more appealing with a hook. Following this, I simply paraphrase the prompt as the background information. Then it is a thesis statement raised prior to ending this paragraph.
