Well done! You did great anyway, @SaadiaRamzanRamzan
-
Good! @SaadiaRamzanRamzan What about the thesis statement?
-
Thank you. Paragraph leaders should not start with the question. Instead, you can mention one of the reasons people move there. For example, you mentioned job opportunities. You can state this reason in the paragraph leader. Then, you will elaborate on this idea by providing supporting sentences. @SaadiaRamzanRamzan

Ainur Bulasheva replied to Martha Salamanca
Thank you. Do you live outside of this city?
-
It is great to see you understand the aim of the paragraph leader. Your first sentence is clear and provides the main statement of the paragraph. Then, in your paragraph, you elaborate on your idea and provide examples. Well done! @MarthaSalamanca

Hi, @FarihaOmarzad, Welcome to this course and good luck with your studies.
-
Thank you for your comment, @AprilShweWin. We can deliver our thoughts in writing using simple words. Our proficiency in writing will be developed later, so do not worry about fancy academic words for now.
-
It is fine, @HadeerHefni. You do not need to write articles. You can catch up on this content without any writing experience.

Ainur Bulasheva replied to Daniella Silva
You are right! @DaniellaSilva, working on mistakes is essential to learning, and we learn from our mistakes.

You have a great understanding of academic writing features @DaniellaSilva. Thanks for sharing

I suppose there are facts from Brazilian history? Good job!

Hi @DaniellaSilva, Do not apologise. You have a good background to start learning with us. Thank you for introducing yourself. Welcome to this course xx
-
That is a great and relevant topic to discuss @SayakoTachibana. Thank you. I want to make some minor corrections to put more clarity to your title. 1. "reason" should be plural, as you will discuss more than one reason, right? 2. "recent young Japanese" can be rephrased for clarity: "young Japanese individuals in recent years."
Discuss the reasons why young...

Good job @SayakoTachibana. You can check your answers in the next step.
-
Thank you, @SaadiaRamzanRamzan. It seems you put some new ideas that are not mentioned in the text. That is good as well. If you look at the text above, what main ideas can you highlight?
-
Do you mean the title of the essay? Sometimes, during university studies, we need to write on topics we are not familiar with. In this case, students do research and pick up the main ideas they want to discuss. The process here is the same. Once you have ideas, you need to structure your writing clearly. Further, in this course, you will know how to do it step...

-
You are welcome! @DorothyTomkins

Great topic, @ClaudiaCarolinaRoldán. You need to be clearer about who shouldn't spend money. Is it scientists, the government, or Elon Musk?

Thanks for your feedback @ClaudiaCarolinaRoldán

You are welcome! @AfrahOraha

That is great anyway! @ClaudiaCarolinaRoldán
-
Well done! @AfrahOraha

Correct! @AfrahOraha Thanks for your answer
-
Thank you, @SayakoTachibana! Your paragraph has a clear reason at the beginning. Then, you can try to develop it further, but remember, you can be even more specific. For example, you can focus on museums or theatres only and write about performances or events taking place.

Thank you @AfrahOraha

Sounds like a good strategy. @keumsookHahm

Looking forward to your examples, guys. Try to focus on positive reasons. I am sure there are. I will start first.
During my studies, I live in Reading, UK. I arrived from a big city, so the phase of life in Reading seemed slow for me. Later, I found benefits from this:
1. Life-work balance
2. Many green parks for leisure and activities
3....

Thank you, @SayakoTachibana, for providing a paragraph. You tried to introduce Tokyo as a lively city with many things to do and reasons to live there. It explains why people choose Tokyo by providing ideas such as mentioning work, social life, education, and leisure. Also, every idea starts with the leader sentence. You did great!
-
These are great examples! @SayakoTachibana Thank you

Ainur Bulasheva replied to Saransh Sharma
Yes, learning new languages combines four different skills: reading, listening, writing and speaking. That is why some skills can be developed better than others. This course could be a great start for improving your writing skills.
