OK.  Think first.  If you were "teaching" what would tell the student is the answer.  Be clear.  Be simple.  Then that is what you write down.  Remem ber, what you write has to make sense TO THE STUDENT, so what you write now has to be what the teacher wants cuz it makes sense to the teacher.

not sure what u mean...\n\nmy suggestions would be short and concise (no one likes reading a novel to get a general idea)\n\nbe honest \n\nput best qualities first\n\nDONT misspell stuff (that just looks sloppy and shows u arent serious about the job)

My advice for editing: a kindergartener called you a low-life inferior? use a more realistic term there... I don't know what the relevance is of the summer heat... "run" should be "ran". Get rid of the "of courses". First off, it is redundant to start two sentences in the same way back-to-back, and secondly it indicates a tone a little too casual for the essay. fix "going busting", change "can" to "could" (don't change tenses). "remembered" should be "remember", "hide" should be "hiding" .\n\nAside from all proofreading, I hate to tell you that the point of the story is moot. It is a great idea to use a story to illustrate something about yourself for college apps, but make sure that the story is applicable to what you're trying to say about yourself!\nA story about an elementary school fight is hard to relate to an epiphany about trying hard in school. Sure, you were berated, but not in a way that relates to your level of education necessarily. Maybe say something about your mother telling you to always try hard in school so that you can lift yourself to a higher place in society?\nGood luck with northeastern (if you choose it)! both my girlfriend and best friend attend, and they love it!

I feel your pain, dude.\nI have a ten page essay on The Life Of Charles Dickens due in less then 2 weeks & I hardly have anything written! And I am only a freshman in highschool! (that sure gives you something to look foward too, huh?)\n\nBut, there's one thing that I learned from all the papers I had to write in my middle school & high school carreer is that...\n\nYou are the only who can do the paper, and YOU have to RESEARCH..thats why its called a RESEARCH paper..!!\n\nHere are some tips on how to research:\n\n*go to the libary--get some books about friction and research\n\n*you can also go to yahoo.com,google.com, or msn.com and type in "fricion" in the search box, and print out a couple of pages about friction and later highlight what you think you need for the report or take notes on it\n\n&& Voila! Your paper will be done in no time! :D\n\nGood Luck!

Be unique and let your writing speak for itself. Write a paper giving your opinion on a controversial matter or a hot topic in your school or community. Then either hang it up or pass it out at your school - campaigning with something like "Vote for me - School Journalist" or something similar to that.  Good Luck.

Write it yourself. It's easy to get caught. Teachers type a quote in google and it will pop right up.

A)- memorizing stuff and understanding them go hand in hand. i think you should try to undertstand about the things first then write them in your own way.. dont learn by heart, try to use your own words and you would find it easy if you understand the idea of the matter.\n\nB)- in your draft and while studyin', please try to state the things you wanna talk about in your answer. for example, if you are talkin about some character in a novel, you should think like this>>\n\n1- the significance of the character in the novel\n2- his relationship with other charachters.\n3- what he does in the novel. \n\nthe above elements or "titles" (1,2,3) are the things that you should learn by heart. Once you memorize them, you would find your pen writin on its own ;) and it would be so easy for you to write in your own words the whole stuff relating to the character and guess what? you wouldnt even forget any important thing.\n\n hope i was helpful enough..goodluck, dear

SKIM the book (you can get the gist of it)! I did it all throughout high school and managed to keep up with extra-cirricular activities and graduated 3rd in my class! LOL

I taught 5th grade a few yrs ago. I liked using their literature stories and have the students pick a character and write the story from a different perspective. You can also allow them to write about their hobby,how would someone describe you if they came into your room and didn't know you?What will you be involved in in high school? What is your goal for 30 yrs of age? Write about fav sportsman. Who is their hero? What is a hero? Feelings about America? I once did a story on a bag of marshmallows and they wrote from the marshmallows veiw. It was a good topic. You can use everyday objects and lay one on each desk. Recently I had my grandkids write a story about 3 items that I picked for them. The items had nothing in common but they wrote great stories. They also made a story plan by filling out a form with the characters,problem,2 paragraphs about how to solve the problem,how it was solved, and wraping up in the last paragragh. The next time I let them pick the items but it took them forever to get them. I think they were trying to think up a story while looking for the items. I was actually working with one grandson who was behind in reading due to ADHD( Delux!). He learned some from the new ideas I found for him and it was nice that the others of about the same age wrote with him.PBS.com is where I got some of my ideas(games,worksheets,books) to help him this summer so he got caught up. "Mrs.McGowen Lots About Reading" in the PBS site is a great source and has many ideas on all subjects. Best wishes! I miss teaching but have my hands full with grandkids!

ask your instructor to give you some extra homework\n\nare you trying to write like a novel or just for conversation? the 2 styles of writing are differant\n\nreading will improve your writng skills so turn off the tv & pick up some good books\n\nwhat are you trying to improve about your writng skills?\npractice makes perfect so pick up paper & pen & simply start copying your homework over a 2nd time soon you'll have better handwriting

Well one time I got 434 points in one school year. Damn everyone was congratulating me. It's all in the book. My technique is to only read the parts that are interesting. Otherwise I skim. I'm a fast reader.

I'd recommend getting a copy from your local library. That way you can have a book to take to class and you won't have to use all that ink printing the whole novel out!
