On the 1st paragraph, change your 1st sentence to;

On a lighter note, I commend you for standing by you mother in times like this and in all the times she will be needing you, be there for her and your family will survive the odds of life.

I read through you essay and from what the prompt asked you to do, I believe you started quiet good but you somehow went to a different direction,

it almost sounded like a different prompt altogether.You have to maintain the direction of the essay, regardless of the part of focus, such as the body or the end of the essay, you have to make sure that it all corresponds to the prompt and answer it accordingly.

I would also like you to focus on the details that you elaborated on the essay, some of the information such as how you spend your summer, is not quiet necessary for the overall purpose of the essay.

This normally happen when you write and you lost track of what you are writing about but don't fret this is normal and you will improve in time.

Scholarship / I believe obtaining Masters in UK / Physiotherapist Chevening alumni - Study UK Question [3]

Usman, I'd like to let you know that the screening for the Chevening Scholarship is due any moment and you might want to check if your application can still go through.

Now, proof reading through your essay, you did write it very well, however not for the purpose of what the prompt asked you about, I believe what you wrote is a different response for a different prompt that is part of the Chevening scholarship too, so you have to be very careful.

What I suggest that you do is go back to the prompt, read and understand it carefully and write a fresh essay.
The prompt basically ask you of three university courses of your choice that you might want to pursue if granted with the scholarship.
You are looking at medicine inclined courses so try to come up with three courses that you would rank 1,2,3 and accordingly, write your purpose or

the reason behind each of the courses,this should be easy since you have made you decision already, you just have to incorporate this courses with

your goals and how does the scholarship help you.

Book Reports / Practicing Moral Courage - A Different Kind of Strength (To Kill A Mockingbird essay) [6]

Alex, I may not be an expert on book reports, I only did it like 10 times in my academic days , however, reading through your report is like reading the book myself and this means your essay is written very well.

I like the fact that you incorporated motivation from powerful people and draw inspiration from there.

What separates your book report from what I already read and from the one's I made myself is that, you made sure to inject parts of the book into the essay while creating that very smooth flow of transition of the sentences. Speaking of sentences, you were also able to construct well written sentences that made the report more interesting and detailed to the T.

Well, that's about it for me, I hope my insights helped.

Research Papers / Does private school or public school matter to you? Private vs. Public School - Need a peer-review [3]

Regine, first of all, this is a research paper and some of the must haves of a research paper is not in it such as citation and the proper presentation of the essay when it comes to paragraphing and sentence conjunctions.

Anyhow, it is well written but not for it's purpose.

The research paper you have started is strong enough to open greater heights of the study and it has a personal insight in the beginning already so the readers are already engaged and you have to keep this connections all through out the essay.

The information gathered may be from a credible source but as I mentioned, if there is no citation input either in- text or in the end of the paper, well you basically have to do both to prove your source for the research.

Moving towards the end of the essay, it's very good that you injected a personal touch to it in order to have that consistency of the research.

Overall, just a few additional, credible citations will be best for your research paper.

Undergraduate / "We all have great inner power" - Lifetime Goals Essay; Apply Texas Topic C [5]

Mary, it's good to incorporate a saying or a source of motivation at the beginning of your essay and draw the rest of the essay base on this, the only thing that you have to remember is that you have to make sure that this corresponds with the prompt.

The beginning as well as the body of the essay is very good, it'e written well and I believe there's a little bit of enhancement on the final paragraph of the essay. Here are my thoughts;

Final paragraph
- I've workedstrive hard in all my classes
- so that I can help those struggling in the classes, to pass.
- When IH elping someone,
- not only does it help the person, but itdoes not only help the person, rather also tests
- Helping people to me, is the most
- rewarding thing you can do in life. because it not only helps the person, but it helps your inner self.
- This is why my goal in life,is to help as many people as I can, in anyway that I can.

There you have it, I hope it did enhance the final paragraph of the essay and made it stronger.

Letters / Write a card to send to Jo - you need to delay visit. [6]

Cao, here are my suggestions on your letter;

- first of all, write from the heart and this goes with all your future writing material
- mind the prompt and think about the idea you want to write, make sure that it corresponds what the prompt is asking you
-it's good to be straight forward or direct to the point, however, it's two things when the letter doesn't feel any soul to it at all

and a letter with conviction and feelings
- a letter should have an introduction, say hi, hello perhaps
- the body of the letter is where you explain or write the purpose of the letter in detail
- and of course, your final message
- lastly, salutation and all that is necessary to be added in the end such as date if you want to

All this guidelines above should help you come up with a stronger revised essay.

Last and final paragraph
- That wW hat I dreamt of
- different types of emotions of whichthat I had been
- But mM ost importantly
- myself back in my freshmen year on that white dry erase board.

There you have it Ibrahim, I made the necessary modifications, you tend o construct sentences with direst translation of your native language which is fine as English is not our other tongue, however, you have to practice writing more and read a lot in order to enhance your vocabulary and writing style, I also cut the sentences into 3 paragraphs and I believe it's far better than a completely one paragraph essay.

Regino, I run through your research paper and I feel very intrigued with your approach, video games on a normal day can be so much fun, both for the young ones and more this days to the adult players.

Indeed, the views and insights on video games differ greatly upon who is using it, can be for leisure, for professional use or entirely for anonymous purposes.

Overall, your research paper, citation plays a very big role, I'm not very keen on video games and anything that relates to it, however, in every aspect of a research paper, gathering a credible and solid information that will back up your research is very crucial, having said that, you have to strengthen your source of information.

In line of this details, kindly refer to Louisa's remarks too, she did go through your sentences fairly and spotted a few points worth considering, this are valuable addition or enhancement to your research paper.

More so, majority of research paper don't carry a personal insight, just because of the fact that most authors think that it's a research paper base mostly on the facts they gathered, however, it is still a piece of writing that you rolled and made a point to, it would be best if you can add a couple of sentences, your personal insight of the subject at hand, this are my suggestions.

Graduate / Debts and Loans - 'money has a great role in each section of human life' - IELTS2 [6]

Mary, knowledge in vocabulary is not gained over time, it's like a profession or your goals, you need to put a little effort here and there.

I don't have any doubt at all that you will keep writing and you will become better with it as you go along.

Remember, the suggestion that we make here on EF is plain suggestion, yes they do help a lot and it really gives the essay that amp that it needs, however this does not mean that we don't find your essay a piece of good writing, we just want to modify it and enhance it to make it stronger.

I started out with very little vocabulary too, what I did that helped a lot?, I read, any paper or reading material I can get my hands with, even when walking, on a train, the bus or anywhere I find something to read, I read. Now, with the help of technology, do yourself a favor, look up a few words in the dictionary up, a few words each day will help you build your vocabulary and inevitably help you in your writing and communication skills.

So, keep writing and read a lot.

Book Reports / 1984 Essay, The private and personnel life of Winston [6]

Gurjot, I'm not sure as well why your teacher gave you 62, is this 62 / 100? If so, this means he / she didn't really review or pay attention on your book review.

Believe it or not, I did some book reviews and they're not as good as the one you have, I mean my book reviews are good but not as good.

If there's anything that is lacking in your essay, it's the use of the verb tenses and verb forms, you tend to write everything in it's past form.

Good to note, when an action is done in a continuous manner, you should carry out the present form of the verb and this is also true with words that has taken place today or in the present time.

Well, I don't know how your teacher got into scoring your work like he/she did, however, look at the brighter side of things all the time and keep this in your experience treasure chest, it will serve you better in the future.

Keep writing.

Graduate / "Your story is awful. It does not make sense at all." - SOP for Animation graduate school [2]

Kyu, that's exactly what I mean by writing a paragraph about your academic background.
Remember, as much as the purpose of this essay is to learn more about you, your dreams, aspirations and professional goals,
it is also very critical that you add some information about your academic achievements, this will boost your credentials and
gives the admission panel the confirmation that you are not into animation because you like it or because it's your outlet to unleash
frustration but because animation is where your dedication lies and where you see yourself succeeding as a professional.

Kyu, a paragraph dedicated to this information will definitely help your SOP.
Animation is not an easy field to discover and this SOP is the start of your journey so give it a bang and make your art known to this industry.

I hope you find my insights helpful and let us know when you do the revision so we
can assist you further.

Research Papers / What Can Psychopaths Teach us about Success? [3]

Stephanie, first stop, your essay is written in a manner that the reading panel will understand what psychopathy is and this is very good, this means you totally re - worked how a normal writer would write about this subject and you reached to the mass readers in helping people understand the complexity of the subject.

Going through your essay, I'd like to make a very minor modification if you don't mind, I can assure you that this modification will help a lot in your paper.

What I'm talking about is to interchange your second paragraph and make it your first, reason being, it will boost the understanding of the overall study and the purpose of letting your readers understand your paper better.

More so, this is the only paper I read that is not negatively criticizing this mental disorder rather, seeing the good side and the positive aspect that it brings to an individual.

I hope this paper makes it to larger scope of information drive, I mean as soon as I stumble on facts you wrote on the research, I took the liberty of verifying them and you did a great job in information gathering.

Well, I hope my insights help.

Graduate / 'disaster preparedness and infectious diseases' - Environmental health at U of M personal statement [6]

Chika, it's good to hear from you. It's another student that EF is able to help and that gives us the jest to move forward and do what we do best.

Now, I mentioned negative verbs or words in general, what I mean is using the words but, cannot or something like preventing you to complete the sentence with no opposing ideas or message.

Instead of using such negative words, you can replace it with, however, in spite or phrases like, on a lighter note, looking at the bright side or leaning towards, etc.,

this word and phrases will definitely help you in expressing the same message with the same level of impact that you want your readers to note.

I hope I was able to help and if you need further assistance do let us know here on EF and we'll be very glad to help.
