Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 2: Country Allocates Budget to Develop Public Facilities [NEW]

Some people think that large, impressive buildings are important for a city. Others believe that the money should be spent on improving schools and hospitals. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

Country allocates budget to develop public facilities of city for their citizen. Some people believe that government has to build spectacular structures, whereas others think that it is more significant to use them on reforming schools and hospitals. For two of views, I believe that the fantastic building can show identity of city and become a business place, then schools and hospitals will also help human beings to access great education and proper health.

People think that state has to invest its money on developing special buildings for several reasons. Firstly, they can show the identity or image of its city. As an example, Petronas Twin Tower in Malaysia has been become an icon of Kuala Lumpur even country of Malaysia. Some tourists travel to Malaysia to visit the building for taking photograph or just adore the view. Not only this, fabulous structures are also built to make a central of business, such as shopping center, entertainment area, and tourism place. They will lead investors and give profit to the country.

However, I believe that the budget will offer more positive impact if the government estimate to improve hospitals, so society can receive health services, like qualified doctors, the best drugs, comfortable patient treatment rooms, sophisticated hospital equipment, and affordable cost. Therefore, people will never feel worry when they have to cure their illnesses. Finally, individuals have a right to obtain education, so country should concern on this issue. Pleasurable school, professional teachers, complete library, advanced laboratory, and good textbooks can support people to achieve great education.

To conclude, although some people argue that spectacular buildings are very prominent as they can become the icon and make profit, I would argue there is sufficient evidence to prefer schools and hospitals. Moreover, government should act based on need and interest of society.

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 2: The Greatest Challenge for Parents Who Had a lot of Children [5]

In many parts of the world, families were larger in the past because people had more children. Do you think there were more advantages or disadvantages to being part of a large family in the past?

In the past, there were several people to live with many members in home, so they had lots of children and big families. They felt comfortable even had to share everything with the members and took more advantages than possessed in a small family.

The greatest challenge for parents who had a lot of children was money. They tried hard to earn big incomes, so they could fulfill daily necessities of all the relatives. After their children in school ages, they had to spend more dollars to send them to qualified schools as education would very important for young generations in the future. Parents also needed money to build their houses larger to accommodate relatives, extended the rooms for them, and bought some stuffs. Moreover, parents had to pay more attention which was shared to their children. They might be difficult to managing their tasks of works and listening stories of their children.

However, I argue having bigger families give more benefits for people. Firstly, Children would learn about responsibilities when there were some activities in home because members could divide it. This character would bring them to be more mature. Owning large families also upgraded intelligence of individuals. For example, when they discussed some issues, they would give knowledge or views one and another. Finally, when children had grown up, parents would not feel lonely because the members would be more and bigger. Furthermore, the children could collaborate to work together.

To sum up, big family would give some problems money and attention in particular. On the other hand, I believe the advantages outweighed the drawback because it created stronger relationship, supported and helped each other when they got the problems.

Letters / I will be a exchange student. This is a letter that I will sent my future host family. [2]

Hi Vy, you are still young but your English is good. I guess English is not your first language too, Congratulation than...

I imagine that If I was a receiver, totally I would be very happy. Your letter is completely clear and understandable. You started with story about your dreams to get the top and willingness to share each other. Your host family must be glad and cannot wait to see you. Even, you do not know each other, you have given your background till your privacy information, it was great.

In my opinion, you should put your subject in your school in particular and what will you know about your host family. I mean, if you have conducted a research about you future family, you will know little information about you future mother, father or other relatives. Just make sure that you want really to know about their house, activities, just you name it. You will be their family to, i think it is great if you mention it.

Writing Feedback / Silkworms experience their life in five stages and spend about 10 weeks from eggs to become moths [3]

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.

First step, the eggs are spawned and adhered by their mother on leaves. After 10 days, the eggs hatch and transform to be silkworm larva. To survive their life, larvas eat mulberry leaf, their favorite diet. During four to six weeks, enough long time, they are going to grow up and produce silk thread. Eventually in that phase, larvas insert its self to coil of silk to make cocoon in three to eight days. While larva is inside, it does not look for and consume food or drink. Afterwards, silkworm comes out from cocoon with new appearance in 16 days. In the end of stages, it becomes a moth with wings and has a skill to fly. The figure of moth is totally different with silkworm, people call it metamorphose.

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 2: The Internet is Probably the Most Significant Invention of the Last 30 Years [3]

The internet is probably the most significant invention of the last 30 years. Without it, our lives would be completely different. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Spread of the internet has substantially altered life of people in the world for the last three decades. It gives people not only many benefits to support their activities on works or studies, but also some harmfulness for humankinds. I would argue that this has both positive and negative impacts.

On the positives side, the internet presents easiness to get information, news, and knowledge because it can collect them from any source in the planet. For example, when students from university have assignments from their lecturers, they can search from the internet beside books, journals, and newspapers. While the internet provides the knowledge which is published from experts in the earth, students can choose based on their subjects quickly and fast. The internet also assists people in work world, such as banks, government institutions, and mass Medias. They need quick online connection to link to their patrons, citizens, and clients, so their relations will be awakened in reality or virtual.

However, negative site for society is about the content of in the internet, there are many websites which contain pornographies and bad provocations. Internet users are come from any different age range from children to adults, while the adult sites do not block their content or easy to reach. They sometimes solely need for agreement on just one click and allow whoever to access the pages. In additions, these days, hackers who can broke link of information become a threat. They can infiltrate, delete, or disturb data or information, so it will be so harmful.

All in all, it is clear to me that although there are great impacts on development of the internet in over 30 years, there are also drawbacks. The societies have to use wisely, then government has a responsibilities to control cyber world when there are negative contents of page webs.

Hi Rose,
I really enjoyed to read your essay. For me who don't use English for my first language, it was easy to understand. Actually, when I read your essay, I did not find strong reasons why do you choose Hosfra? You only told mostly about how beautiful and excellent the University is. In my opinion, you should not cite too much your impression about the campus, but you need to mention whether can develop your future if you join in the campus. Perhaps, you need to mention a major that you really want? Then give your strong reasons that are collaborated with your dreams. It is like to correlate between you and the university. What do you find out about the university that can support you in the future? Such as, the university can support in your leadership skills, critical thinking, dancing skill (you have mentioned it), your research, and more. Just directly tell, to do point.

Perhaps, It will be better if you tell two or three reasons with hardly explanations than you give some compliments.

This is my suggestions, hopefully can help. Thanks. Good luck! :)

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 2: A Number Of Young People Are Unhealthful To Undergo Their Way that They Live [2]

Many children these days have unhealthy lifestyle. Both school and parents are responsible for solving this problem. To what extent do you agree with this statement?

Nowadays, a number of young people are unhealthful to undergo their way that they live. These are maybe as there are lots of innutrition foods like fast food consumed in large number. I argue that the schools have obligations to teach children to do right actions for their health whereas the parents have to prepare and control their meal in home or school.

Children and teenagers need to be led to experience their life included how to become fit persons. When they are in surroundings of schools, teachers must give them information to broaden their horizons and direct them to eat only good foods or do sports, so they are avoided from illnesses. The tutors have to inform enough knowledge such as negative effects when people consume fast foods too much or important benefit when keep body healthily every day.

However, not only the teachers but also the parents have similar responsibility. I believe that parents are the first persons who have the greatest impact for children. There are some ways that can be done by parents with providing freshly and qualify home foods like vegetables as well as fruits. Mothers should prepare children meal for their diets or beverages and ensure the food come or bought from trusted place. In addition, they have to cook in the right way, so the nutrition does not lose. Parents also should always control, suggest, and remind the children to apply healthy lifestyle because children do not have many concerns about these yet.

To sum up, parents and schoolteachers have to collaborate to support their children undergoing happy and healthy lifestyle. The controlling should be in school and home so that young generations realize that this is very essential.

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 2: Famous People Like Celebrities or Athletes Almost Are Reported by The Media [2]

The media pay too much attention to the lives and relationship of celebrities such as actors, singers or footballers. They should spend more time reporting the lives of ordinary people instead. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Nowadays, Famous people like celebrities or athletes almost are reported by the media whereas the reporters also investigate about their lives to be informed. I argue that the media has done the right way while this gives good impacts and great perceptions for the audiences. However, the media also needs to announce common individuals who have extraordinary achievements or powerful influences.

The media provides good and bad information for society. For example, the media reveals several habits of the idols such as dating with someone, buying luxury cars, or beating other celebrities. All these activities are not significant effects and positive perceptions for the fans. On the other hand, the media sometimes exposes the great attractions that perform their skills or abilities in singing, dancing, acting and magic. In addition, some good news about athletes, who win in international competitions and get medals, have to be published to motivate people to do similar achievement.

However, I totally believe that the media needs to expose common people who are awarded because of their ideas, skills or abilities to the audience. For instance, Masril Koto, a person who has no formal education, becomes a hero at small village in Sumatra since he initiates to create a special bank for farmers called 'Bank Tani'. Next, his idea gains the good response from local people even national as he can help the farmers to improve their field by managing debt to buy fertilizers or seeds. Therefore, Koto receives two awards, 'Danamon Award' and 'Indonesia Berprestasi Award'. This good news is worthy to spread spirit and inspiring for other people to do kindness.

To sum up, the media needs to report the life styles or activities of popular people if the information has good values and positive impacts for people. Moreover, the media has to balance with conveying inspiring stories, so people can imitate the ideas or spirits.

Hi there...
As far as I am concerned, you have no grammatical error. I have just read an essay having different style like yours. However, in my opinion you should make such overview or introduction in the first paragraph, such as write the trend that happen in the chart. Then, you no need to explain the detail data while let the readers understand generally. Therefore, the readers will know what will you say, and we can imagine. To be honest, I can't get the imagination because you don't attach the picture. On the other hand, if you just wrote the overview in your beginning of paragraph, I will predict what kind of evidences that you reveal.

Next, you can present the detail data in your bodies of paragraphs. Anyway, you did a good way to explain the flow, with comparison or contrast. You can add the unique data in the bodies whereas it is not only results or reasons. Let us know, the real data in your following paragraph. Finally, no need to summarize in the last paragraph. It is enough when you state in the first paragraph.

Hii there...
I did not find grammatical error in your essay, it is quite good and interesting to read your story. However, you need to change some words of "I" in capital. I counted seven "i" that you used. Also, you have to write "I have" not "I've" , then "I am" not "I'm" for academic and formal writing styles.

I have some tips for writing experience to attract your readers. In my opinion, when we write a story based on experience, it is better if we avoid to put our impression because it is very subjective while the readers may feel different. Therefore, you should explain only the evidence of your acts, results, and situation that happened. You can follow these tips :

1. cite your strong experience you want to tell.
2. explain the Situation /task, then what the Act that you did, and Results.

Goodluck then..

Writing Feedback / The internet cannot replace the position of museum role; IELTS TASK 2 [2]

Sorry, I clicked 'post message' accidentally, so I will continue my comments,

Generally, I did not find grammatical error in your essay. Be aware when you paraphrase the prompt, it can be misleading. You can check in oxford collocation and Thesaurus dictionary to ensure you did the right pattern.

To sum up, the internet cannot replace the position of museum role eventhough the people are capable of seeing the ancient object freely. I tend to argue in case of museum is unused in the future .

You should not put this sentence because you show your inconsistency. You tell about the benefit of museum, but then you argue that museum will be unused. Better, you tell your supporting statement that museum really need to be protected and developed. In conclusion, also you need to emphasize your thesis statement that you arrange in the first paragraph. Then, write summarize from your body paragraphs while it will make your opinion stronger.

Good luck then, I hope this helps.

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 1: A Machine For Generating Electricity From Wind And Where It Can Be Located [2]

The diagrams illustrate a machine for generating electricity from wind and where it can be located. In general, the machine shows one of ways to optimize renewable resource whereas its installation may lead to several problems because of its location and its expense.

The machine consists of turbines made by fiberglass or wood, a wind sensor, a generator, and all of the parts are propped up by a steel tower. On the other side, this is connected to a computer device that can detect and give information about the energy that is produced.

The process starts when the winds blow the blades. As a consequence, the turbine rotates and leads to produce the electricity as much as 1.5 megawatts through the generator. At the same time, the sensor informs the direction and speed of turbine to the computer, and then users are able to see on the screen how much is the energy produced and the speed run.

Alternatively, to maximize the use, the machine can be placed on the peak of hill where the winds are stronger and more electricity will be generated. However, people also can build a domestic turbine and place nearby the house. Therefore, the smaller one can bring the output only 100 kilowatts.

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 2: To Be An Entrepreneur Has More Advantages Than To Be A Worker [3]

Some people decide to start their own business instead of working for a company or organization. Do the advantages for people working for their own business outweigh the disadvantages?

Nowadays, being an employee in a company does not become a choice for several people than having own business. In my opinion, although entrepreneurs need much money and look for an opportunity to build their business, they can manage freely their office hours and are able making money for their income. In addition, I do believe that a business person can help more people than the other.

The most challenge for entrepreneurs is capitals, so they may meet enormous debt from bank. Therefore, they have to effectively estimate the budget to build office, pay the workers, hire notary to legalize their business, and produce what products or services they want to engage. Another reason is to appear strong chance to improve the production that really people expected. They must seriously think about to make unique and qualify creation, promote it to public, ensure consumers, and determine attractive or competitive price of it.

On the other hand, while entrepreneurs have to invest big capitals for their business, they have privileges to manage their works by themselves. For example, restaurant owners can open their business without any enforcement. Then, they can hire someone to improve their company because they have the highest authority. Furthermore, they can make money more than their workers. Because they get a large amount of profit, they can pay the employees regularly, go around the world, and do some charities. Likewise, I do believe business person can help more people to get a job. Moreover, they can motivate others to be rich man and inspire them.

All in all, while to be an entrepreneur has more advantages than to be a worker, the great entrepreneurs will undergo the business and deal with risks and problems. However, people who have no courage to start business, they can look for a company which can safely support their live.

Hi Malik,
Let me give you some comments..

In my opinion your style how you answer the questions is not appropriate, and it has not clearly explained yet. You tell with variety of analogies that can be confused. Why you did not give reasonable statement that relate with your motivations, backgrounds, and dreams? Moreover, you should show your passion. I guess you know much information about Illinois, so let the campus know what your intention which it can help you to improve with its program study/major and facilities. In other words, prove that you really interest in your major based on your background while the university provides the study that you really want.

However, for showing your intention and passion you need to tell your experiences. Then, I have some tips for writing essay based on experiences. I told to many people who joined in this forum. But, maybe it can be useful for you. Use method : STAR , your story should include, Situation/Task (what kind of jobs/responsibilities you tackle/handle or the situation that you experience), Action (what did you do to solve/accomplish/response problems/troubles/tasks/obligations/situation/experience etc.), and Result (what happen when you did your action). This method will help you to make the flow of story attractively.

I hope it can help, good luck then :)

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 2: The state Has An Obligation To Give Free Education And Health Services [2]

All education and healthcare should be funded by the government and free for everyone. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

Some people argue that the state has an obligation to give free education and health services for every single citizen. I totally agree with this argument since law and order regulate that welfare of society is responsibility of the government. However, while poor people receive the assistance, the persons who are wealthy do not need to be fully funded.

As governments, they have authorities to manage State's income through natural resources and taxes, and use it for prosperous purpose by improving services. Therefore, the governments develop state hospitals and schools to help poor people, so that they can access easily because they really need. Likewise, they provide the best infrastructures and qualified human resources to give the greatest services to them. But, the states have to be selective only for the poorer.

However, I think that the government should encourage society to effort, not only waiting the aid from the state, but also achieving the welfare life. For instance, the richer can choose private services and pay by their selves when they need to cure diseases or education. On the other hand, the richer appears inaccurate target for receiving helps from the state. They can use their own money and take a part to support poor people instead.

To sum up, I do believe that the governments need to help poor people to allocate some money for them to get free healthcare and education. Moreover, it will be more suitable than every single one obtains including the wealthy individuals. Furthermore, society's welfare is responsibility of all people in the world, so they should motivate and inspire one and another.

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 2: Schoolchildren Have To Eat A Wholesome Food When They Study [2]

To learn effectively, children need to eat a healthy meal at school. How true is this statement? Whose responsibility is it to provide food for schoolchildren?

Some people argue that schoolchildren have to eat a wholesome food when they study because it can support them to learn effectively. I do agree with this statement since the nutrition of food will help them to focus on subject and avoid getting sleepy. In addition, teachers, parents, and government should take responsible to provide healthy meals.

Children have some activities at school, so they need energy and calories from what they eat. Therefore, they need nutritious meals to obtain their necessity. It usually consists of carbohydrates, proteins, and vitamins that produce energy used to do some activities. However, healthy meals can prevent children suffering illnesses. For examples, vegetables and fruit have a lot of vitamin that can fight virus or germ, so immunity of pupils will be kept. In other words, children can study successfully if they have a fit body condition.

On the other hand, there are some people who arrange children meals as it is impossible if children prepare it by themselves. When they are at home, their parents have an obligation to ensure that they consume the right food. Then, teachers should help parents to control their food when they are at school. For instances, bring a box food or buy a great snack in surrounding of school. Finally, the government needs to legalize a policy that selling bad foods in around of schools are forbidden. Furthermore, it can reduce distribution of poor quality food or beverages.

All in all, wholesome meals can improve study of pupils more effectively. Parents, teachers, and the government should collaborate to make sure their schoolchildren fit, so they can learn well at school. Likewise, they should give an insight to children about advantages of healthful food so that they know the reasons why consume it must to do seriously.

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 2: Which One is More Essential, Appearance or Quality of Work? [5]

Some organizations believe that their employees should dress smartly. Others value quality of work above appearance. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

Some people argue that to be a well-dressed worker in a company is more essential than job performances, but the others assume the reverse. While I agree both views, it primarily relies on the workplace and the profession.

Nowadays, job descriptions and particular professions need special dress code in everyday activities. For instance, as Public Relations who meet several clients have to wear appropriate clothes. While the organizations represented by them, they must represent good images in front of public, so they will seen more attractive. Moreover, they have special budget to buy fascinating formal dress and cosmetics. Likewise, another example is that persons wear uniform if their professions are policemen, civil servants, doctors, and soldiers. I believe these appearances make people aware about what their responsibility.

On the other side, I state that quality of work is more important than what individuals dress. In short, they use their skills and abilities to work. For example, artists who create some creativity products do not need to maximize their looks. Even, sometimes they do not care what clothes are worn, such as painters, fashion designers, photographers, and theater players. They are usually highly appreciated because they are really all out to make perfect performance regardless appearance.

In particular chance, employees are also mandated by their companies to wear smart clothes, sometimes free costumes. Companies should let their workers to express fashion styles with special requirements. In other words, their dress can be applied if only they experience their duty well.

To sum up, appearance and performance are equally essential to involve in our job. People have to adjust quickly in their surroundings, so they can prepare and know what they should dress. I do reckon that between quality and looks have to be balanced to support and to become professional workers.

Undergraduate / My lifetime goal is to go a good school and secure my future so I can help my parents and family [4]

Hi Grabiela,

I am pleased to read your essay, such a great motivation! Sure, you can explain successfully what motivate you to be an architect! I can say that you are brave to take engineering first to get your dreams to be architect whereas both of them are quite different. What a challenge way. So, you can strive and give your best effort. On the other hand, in my opinion, architecture major is more specific than engineering. If you really have a passion to be an architect, why you do not take architecture. In other words, you will not get particular subject or experience in architect if you take engineering.

To make your essay stronger and more attractive, I believe it is important to tell your clearly goals. For example, I wanna be an architect and work in the best construction company in my country. Then, I'll take my specialist in designing office building, so I can provide outstanding building for a lot of workers in several big cities in my country. Afterwards, I can earn money and support my family life.

Finally, I just realize that you should explore and elaborate your current academic and extracurricular activities that can support you to bridge your next studies and your objectives of life.

I hope it can helps. Good luck then :)

Undergraduate / Contributing to the community! I am American-Chinese. I lived experiencing different cultural values [2]

Hi Giovanni,

Let me give you some comments,

I am pleased to read your essay. You have a great experiences because you have a half between Chinese and American culture. Sorry to say, I cannot find your action to face your diversity of culture. in other words, How did you experience your difference of the background? In this situation, your readers want to know what you do to handle or tackle the diversity. For instance, adjust your habit to China culture when you are in Chinese family or the one reverses, or perhaps, you imitate your accent or joke ? or what else? Show to your readers your effort to face the case. Finally, after you tell your actions or efforts, tell also the results of your actions. Is it effective?

On the other hand, you should explain clearly your culture background of your family. What is American-Chinese that you mean, is it your father are native from China and your mother is from America? Or your grandfather and grandmother who have different culture? Or because of your experience to live in the two countries? So, the readers can imagine clearly how you struggle hardly.

Then, Remember the task responses; you need to show your real character and unique ability strongly, so the University can consider you to be accepted. Provide 2 or 3 of you at least for ensuring that you are really worthy to be considered. Another one is to answer your contribution for your community in the future when you are accepted (you forget to explain this view).


Oh yeah, there is little grammatical error,

most of my teachers assigns us projects that...

I think that's all. good luck then :)

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 2: Rising Tax of Junk Food Can Reduce Health Problems [2]

In some countries an increasing number of people are suffering from health problems as a result of eating too much fast food. It is necessary for governments to impose a higher tax on this kind of food? Agree or Disagree?

Some people argue that governments have to legalize higher-rate tax of junk food because it is the best solution for reducing the number of complex problems in health. I believe that this policy is quite good to prevent citizens' consumption of unhealthy food regularly. However, the governments may lose their income from its sector if the regulation is launched.

Nowadays, people can get the amount of fast food easily because it becomes ubiquitous products and has affordable prices. Likewise, the governments are able to decline the distribution with rising taxes for these varieties of meals. In consequent, the price of fast food will be higher, and it may encourage people to think twice for buying and consuming the meal repetitively. For another reason, if the governments mandate this policy, people will search other meals that cheaper but more healthy and save their money for other necessities.

However, the governments may find new problems when the regulation is decided. First consequence is that the restaurants which have the products will be bankrupt since they cannot pay the tax and add their cost to distribute it, so the governments may lose their income from this sector. On the other hand, the governments will be obtained protest and complaint from the owner of restaurants while they consider that the governments have blocked their business. Furthermore, if the restaurants came from abroad, they may give a blacklist to the country for working together eventually.

All in all, rising tax of fast food can be applied to help people controlling their consumption continuously of junk food, so they can avoid the dangerous diseases that may be occurred. Yet, the governments should think seriously the proper rate for tax and cooperative relationship, so the restaurants obtain sustain as well as the governments gain potential profit.
