The Conclusion
The Conclusion
The conclusion will finish your essay. Your conclusion should:
Summarize the main points of your essay.
Restate your opinion, if needed.
Use varied language, by paraphrasing and synonyms.
Not have new ideas.
Tips
Tips
Never write any new ideas in your conclusion. A conclusion should always simply restate the ideas you have in the rest of the essay.
Make sure you address the main topic in the conclusion. The conclusion should state what you think about the question and make it clear how you feel about the issue.
Vary your language. Show that you have a wide vocabulary by paraphrasing.
Don’t include everything. Don't go into detail. Instead, summarize your main points.
Always write one. It is very difficult to get a good score in this task if haven’t finished your essay with a conclusion. Even if you are running out of time, write one.
The simplest way to write a conclusion is by looking at your introduction and paraphrase it.
Example
Example
Here is the introductory sentence we wrote for the above task:
Introduction:
Some families homeschool their children instead of using the traditional educational system. However, does this do more good or harm to a child? After considering the impact of having a parent as a teacher on a child, their ability to make friends, and the quality of education they receive, it can be said that homeschooling is in fact bad for a child.
Our conclusion is simply going to paraphrase this introduction and restate our key points and opinion:
Conclusion:
In conclusion, we can see that homeschooling creates a number of problems. Having parents as educators, not having classmates to make friends with, and lack of official teaching credentials can all negatively impact a child. It is clear that sending a child to school outside of the home is the best option for them.
Remember that the conclusion has no new information or ideas. It only restates what was already said.
