Writing Feedback / TOEFL:ELECTRIC BOOK OR PAPER BOOK?(contrast) [8]

In my own opinion, you should look back on the templates of the TOEFL essays of Princeton/Cambridge/Barron's books. Hope it help :)

The way you use adverb at the beginning of each paragraph may be redundant/unnecessary, plus, it is not clearly. Once again, I emphasise on the templates you should follow if you want to win high scores of the toefl ibt writing test.

Cheers,

Writing Feedback / TOEFL:Progress in civilization is always goog [2]

Dear Quin yi,
In my own opinion, your essay is well - done. Maybe you invested a lot in your work ^^
Your ideas are various and they force the readers to be curious to read your essay till the end.
However, as far as I know, TOEFL essays just focus on how well you use structure, grammar (you have done well on this aspect) and if you want to win high scores, you should follow its template although how much you wanna express all your ideas.

For example, the second paragraph is not necessary in this case. In stead, you should invest more in the last para. so that it has the balance between the intro, body, and conclusion.

Those are some of my modest ideas.
Hope it help.
Good luck :)

Writing Feedback / [TOEFL] All students should be required to study art and music in secondary school. [13]

Hi there,
I am going to take TOEFL test and I have some problems with my writing.
I study by myself and I have no companions to help me check out my essays.
I really need your help :)
Here is my essay ... Plz help me ...

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
All students should be required to study art and music in secondary school.
Use reasons and specific examples to support your answer.


Nowadays, students have to study many subjects in secondary school. Of all subjects which include social science, natural science, etc., students also study subjects that require and develop their creativity, such as art and music. Many people look down on these subjects because of many reasons. In contrast, I personally agree with the statement that art and music should be a requirement in secondary school. There are many reasons for my point of view.

First, as I have mentioned, art and music can enhance the development of students' creativity, an important factor that is highly appreciated by many recruiters in this modern world. When a lot of people have become much more stable with their conservative thoughts, those with creative ideas turn out to be a precious gift for life. In the other word, art and music are very important to help people; especially students in secondary schools entirely develop. It seems to be certain that everyone all over the world have heard about Mozart, a genius musician who was born and grown up in the rhythm of music and many scientific documents have proved that what made Mozart become genie is music and art. Therefore, if students in secondary schools are required to study these subjects, their future seem to be brighter because they are potential to be many other Mozart. In addition, the world needs their ability to be better for people to live.

Second, no one can deny that art and music also have the ability to help people relax. Nowadays students are always in stuck with so much homework from their teachers, and with numerous extra classes to keep up with or even outdo their peers at school. They seem to have no free time at all for sport, sleeping, or even relaxation. That is one of the reasons why students should be required to study art and music at secondary schools as a way for them to rest. They need to take a rest to continue climbing so many mountains that this tough life force them to. By taking advantage of time in class with many friends, they can have happy time to balance their study and entertainment. In my opinion, it is very crucial for secondary school students nowadays. Nobody wants our new generation will be bookworms who just know to study, eat, and sleep, without ability of music or art. This is really a tragedy.

In conclusion, so that students can develop all their potential such as creativity, adults, especially educationists should create good conditions for students in secondary school to study art and music. It will be better if they are required to study these subjects. Together we hope that in the future there are more and more genies appearing by this change and helping others so that the world will be a better place for people to live in.
