One TOEFL® essay per week!

[Gray]

Hello friends,

I would like to urge all of you to write one essay per week on any topic of your choice, or preferably from the TOEFL sample essay collection we have on the forum.

When it comes to writing, rectifying the essays could be a tedious task and students seem to learn a little by that method. With my own experience and that of my student friends', who are preparing for exams like TOEFL, I could see that an effective way to improve on writing skills is to read and learn from those who could write very well.

Your opinion could be different and I welcome any comments. But your 'essay of this week' is more than welcome :)

Be the wind beneath someone's wings!

Hi Gray

I agree with you completely. We should try one or two essays a week. I have a list of good topics and I'll try to do it gradually.

But in my opinion, I like topics that give readers as much information as possible. Example: problems that city causes for people and environment or explain the causes for the popularity of fast food...

So I hope all of you that interest in iproving skill of writting and reading will support.

Have a nice day!

Hi Gray

Excellent idea, I think it will be a good beginning for those who struggle with writing an essay; which means that we must make an effort and writ at last one essay per week, so as far as I concerned writing essay, it will be very important to be in touche with those who are adept in the English language.

Good morning Aryam.

Apart from improving, it is an opportunity to explore or express ourselves and to learn from the experiences of others.

Should I say, Aryam is going to write this week? :)

What a great idea Gray. It will give all students an opportunity to attempt something completely different, yet with a regularity. It will get them thinking about things, and thinking in English a lot more.

I'd suggest that they use their own ideas, as some preconceived themes may not always appeal to them,

Come on folks. Open your minds and tell us a little story of your own choosing. You are ALWAYS better than you think you are.

Kitosdad.
