  1. Hi thanks for your comments. Will you point out to me my grammar mistakes? Thanks will greatly appreciate your effort.
  2. I think health conscious would be appropriate, instead of invention of fridge. It is just my opinion.
  3. The thought you have in your sentences are incomplete. In my opinion reading novels gives ____(me?)more enjoyment than any other_______(what?) .I used to read novels because it (does?) not only gives (me?) enjoyment and excitement , but also enhances our (my?) reading skill. Some times (sometimes) novels show a great change in our (What do you mean novel does?) life.After novels I would prefer to read magazines and news papers.Because those are helpful to stay our contact with the outside world.I can conceive that magazines would be of any use regarding to knowledge. (You need to follow a pattern on writing your essay!) Hope my comments help. Break a leg!!!!!
  4. Hi I am not so sure about the invention of refrigerator could be right, because health is the issue. In my opinion refrigerator will relate to preserving food. Just want to let you know and see what you think. Break a leg!!!!!
  5. not all serious movies are true stories, so maybe you could say serious movies are interesting because some of the stories are based on real happenings.
  6. Hi there is a pattern for essays. I think you better check on it. Hope my comment helps.
  7. Hi you have good ideas, but my comments are: 1. You don't start a paragraph with although. 2. The reasons for your thesis should be organize, like you mentioned true stories, moral lessons and think sensibly. I think they should be on one sentence. 3. In the conclusion you had like ; I am not for sure why you included it, because i think they should be connected and the conjunction "and" is there so I don't think the colon should be there. They are all just my opinion, with my own understanding. Hope my comment helps.
  8. It is indisputable that teachers play an (a) pivotal role in teaching and guidancing(guiding) students in classes. They provide students +with a lot of precious knowledge which is(are) very necessary for them in the future.However, should teacher(s) show their social or political viewpoints to students? Each person has their own opinion toward this question. Some people approve it but others hace(?) the opposite one. In my opinion, i(I) strongy agree with the latter that teachers shoud not make their social or political point of views in classes because it can reduce studying efficacy and influence viewpoints of students
  9. I don't know the question, but I am just giving my honest opinion. Its quite hard to follow too.
  10. Hi you have a good essay, grammar is good. It seems like you don't have a thesis statement.

  12. 1. What are the characteristics of a good parent? (Word Count 351) Parents play a major role in the life of a child. Although, the invention of so many toys and the influence of peers have greatly affected children’s behavior of modern time, parents with good traits can use these influences to mold the personality and behavior of a child for the good. I believe that ideal parents should be of good moral character, good listener and patience. Parents should have good moral character, because they are the role models of children. It has been known that children are the reflection of their parent’s trait. For instance, my parents do not smoke, gamble or drink. They express virtue in all their actions. They taught us how to respect to elders, and be sensitive to other people’s feelings all the time. They have been my idol all my life, because they were able to raised six children so well and none of us went astray. Furthermore, being a good listener is very important. When parents have time to listen to their children, the communication is open between parties. To illustrate, my brother failed his science subject in school. My parents did not judge or scold him, instead they talked to him and listened to his concerns. They found out that he did not understand his lesson well because of his assigned seat. He was sitting next to an air conditioner, and it bothered him. Having patience has a lot to do with parenting. Although children behavior gets out of hand sometimes due to certain issues like mood, parents exert extra mile of patience to comfort them with love and care. For example, my sister when she was in her elementary years, she refused to attend school. My mother was always late for work, because of my sister’s action. She would always try to bribe her with something so she would go into class. Parenting is a tough job comes with big responsibility. Therefore it is crucial that parents should have outstanding character, a good listener and patience, so that they would have wonderful children.

  15. You have good fillings for your essay, but it is not organize. You need to organize you essay using a pattern. To be honest I am totally lost with what you are saying in your essay. Comments: Organize them using a pattern with an introduction paragraph talking about your main topic. Next paragraph talk about your subtopic then elaborate. Maybe another 3 to 4 paragraphs. Then conclusion, summarize overall. And you need to space out each paragraph, so it will not confuse the reader. I hope my honest comments will help.
  16. A person you know is planning to move to your town or city. What do you think this person would like and dislike about living in your town or city? Why? Use specific reasons and details to develop your essay. (367) I live in Prestonsburg Kentucky in the Eastern United States. The place has been known for its magnificent lakes and mountain views and also the Home of Country Music Stars. On the other hand, the city has its disadvantages, the healthcare, job opportunities and education in the area are limited. Prestonsburg is a countryside with a small population. The city is adorn with wonderful lakes that have abundant sport fishes, which is very ideal for fishing. Also, the view of the mountains with beautiful snowcap on its crown during the winter season resembles the famous Mountain Alps in Alaska. Moreover, the serene surrounding of the environment in the country provides a luxurious living for a person who enjoys nature. The area is perfect for organic vegetable gardening, since everything is natural in the countryside. For example, most of the people in my area uses household organic garbage for fertilizer in their tomato plants. As a result the tomatoes gives a bountiful harvest and safe to consume every year. In addition, the chirping of the birds bouncing from tree to tree make every morning in the countryside a magical world to reside. The Country Music Highway runs through Prestonsburg to hail the legacy of popular country singers born in the area. In fact Loretta Lynn, Wynonna Judd, Naomi Judd, Billy Ray Cyrus, Tom T. Hall, Ricky Skaggs, Keith Whitley, Dwight Yoakam, and Patty Loveless are among the few stars that come back to entertain the locals in their hometown every year and hold a concert at the popular Mountain Arts Center. Although the city is an ideal place to settle, it does have a negative side. During springtime, when trees are in full bloom, the air to inhale in the area is abundant with pollens which can trigger allergies to a sensitive person. Furthermore the healthcare department of Prestonsburg is not well-equipped to handle high-risk patients. Since the area has few populations, the job opportunities are low. Same goes with the education that the city can offer is less advanced when being compared with the education a city can offer because of the lack of school materials and teachers with expertise. In summary, I think it really depends on the kind of person that would like to move into my city. Although, the city of Prestonsburg has its drawback still it offers a variety of reasons to consider a person to settle in its area.
  17. Thanks for your help. In writing this is the format that I use. If you can come up with three different reasons, here's how your rough essay plan might look: A. Introduction - Introduce the broad topic of English language learning in your country - State that there are a variety of reasons for this ( 1,2 &3) - Briefly summarize the three main reasons you've come up with (each of which will be explored in the body paragraphs that follow) B1. Body Paragraph 1 - State the first reason in general terms, as your topic sentence for this paragraph - Give some detailed explanation - Provide some sort of example that demonstrates the reason in action B2. Body Paragraph 2 - State the second reason in general terms, as your topic sentence for this paragraph - Give some detailed explanation - Provide some sort of example that demonstrates the reason in action B3. Body Paragraph 3 - State the third/final reason in general terms, as your topic sentence for this paragraph - Give some detailed explanation - Provide some sort of example that demonstrates the reason in action C. Conclusion - Sum up the three reasons you have explored - Relate back to the general topic again - Provide a finishing thought or prediction Be careful! ~ The essay topic is not really asking you to state whether you approve of English education in your country, or even if you approve of the most prominent reasons. Your opinion is limited to outlining, in an impartial way, what you believe are the most important reasons for learning English based on what you see or know is happening in your country. As an example, I might say that one reason is to advance in one's career, even though personally maybe I don't approve of that reason. Your task is not to judge the reasons, but to report and demonstrate them as the trends you see happening.
  18. I took the test 12th times and have been getting a consistent score of 24 in speaking. I requested for a rescore, but the score does not change at all. I don't know what to do anymore, except to cry myself to sleep. I can communicate well with the Natives around me, I wonder if there is someone out there who can guide or tell me on what to do. An angel perhaps, I will really appreciate your help.
