Hello!
This is not really written as an essay - just a list of points. Also, it is MUCH too short!
All the best,
David

Re: Nowadays schoolchildren and students are taught to be competitive towards their classmates and aren’t encouraged to
Hello! As soon as I see the word 'undeniable', I know an essay is going to be fun! Are children taught to be competitive with other children? Which country are you talking about? And if it's such a drawback, why is it considered to be a "great asset"? What is a "practical oriented era...

Second main paragraph - longing to expend his plethora amount of time??? implementing his obligations??? Conclusion -...

Re: IELTS Task 2 - Unhealthy eating
Hello! The basic arguments are valid, though you do make the classic error or confusing pre-prepared food with unhealthy food, which is not always true. Grammar and vocabulary are generally good. The only other issue is that the main paragraphs are quite short and lack development. All the best, David

Re: Please asses my task 2 essay
Hello! I'm always skeptical of the 'more awareness' argument. I mean, is there any adult in the developed world who has not heard of global warming? No? Then that kinda destroys your first main paragraph. Cleaning up plastic will do nothing - nothing! - to combat global warming. Hence, both main par...

Re: Please asses my Task 2 discussion essay :)

The second main paragraph doesn't really answer the question. The ranges of grammar and vocabulary are the main problems. Ideas are expressed very simply, wit...

Hello! Overall, a reasonable essay. The points are clear, though you tend to the extreme. Perhaps the purpose of the entry fee is PARTIALLY to cover costs. Vocabulary is good with some topic-specific items. Points have some development and good examples. Grammatical range is limited, though accuracy...

Re: Discuss both views essay
Hello!
The conclusion is not personal ... and is actually not very clear, particularly since it completely dismisses the points made in the first main paragraph.
Grammar tends to be simple and use of conditionals, modals and adverbs is limited.
All the best,
David

Hello! revere? outraced? You do not mention enough of the data, so there is a lack of detail. However, you have got the main trends. The range of grammar is limited (although you have correctly used the past tense!). Overall, reasonable, but more detail and a wider range of grammar would make this a...

Hello!
Drugs and medicines ARE tested on people.
Overall, not bad, but some sentences are very long and would be clearer if divided into shorter ones. some vocabulary is used incorrectly, but generally meaning is clear.

Re: Please evaluate my essay (task 2)
Hello! The introduction is only a little shorter than the main paragraphs. This indicates that the main paragraphs are not well-developed. The argument about crime may be valid, but it doesn't really explain why people would still expose themselves to it by working in cities. It also doesn't relate ...

Re: Repost Task 2- Without the success of career, life becomes meaningless
Hello! I think the key thing to note is that you have not referred in detail to any other forms of success apart from at work. In the first paragraph, you seem to be focusing on a very select group of people. Do you mean that everyone who doesn't achieve fame is a failure? I don't think that vocabul...

Hello! Not a bad essay, but there are some problems that need to be dealt with. First, your arguments are often assertions with little or no evidence. Car use DID drop slightly during the oil crisis of the 70s, but that was mainly due to fuel shortages. Car ownership did NOT drop. In Europe, petrol ...

Hello! This is a good essay. I like the second point, though I'm not sure how true it is! (Perhaps a university could do a study!?)

Hello! The first main paragraph is good, but the second contains a few key problems. The point about contributing to the system is unclear.

Re: Repost - Pls give me your comments
Hello! The range and accuracy of grammar is reasonable to some extent. However, a greater variety, particularly conditionals, would make your arguments clearer (more later). The range of vocabulary appears reasonable, but I don't think that you have really used it to create a convincing argument. Qu...

Hello! Basically, quite a good essay. Your point about jobs is often cited with regard to this topic, but it actually doesn't stand up in reality.
