Rewriting the question in your own words
How to reword an essay prompt so the examiner sees your language, not the question's.
Whether children benefit more from classroom teaching or from learning online has become a matter of real debate.
Examiners read your first sentence to see whether you can rework the prompt, and copied wording earns nothing - in IELTS and Cambridge marking, lifted phrases are ignored when your language is assessed. Rewrite the prompt in three ways at once: swap key words for synonyms, change word forms so a verb becomes a noun or an adjective becomes an adverb, and reorder the sentence structure so it no longer mirrors the original. The meaning must stay identical; only the wording changes.
The danger is over-paraphrasing: reaching for a rare synonym that shifts the meaning or does not fit the context, which costs more marks than the copying you were trying to avoid. Two or three well-chosen substitutions plus a new sentence shape are enough - and technical or topic words with no natural synonym should stay exactly as they are.
