Writing Feedback / IELTS: The tax reduction of state school for parents who have children studying in private system [2]

First of all, I want to express my appreciation for all feedbacks of members of forum give to my prior essays. I hope you guys will continue to give me a favor with this essay

Topic: Families who send their children to private schools should not be required to pay taxes that support the state education system.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

Some people who send their children to private schools contend that the amount of taxes they pay for the state education is unreasonable. However, I am utterly convinced that these taxes are absolutely essential.

Firstly, by paying taxes for public school, affluent people effectively contribute to narrowing down the gap between rich and poor. It is true that many poor families are not able to afford tuition fees for their kids to attend a course. With the the tax amount for which they pay, the rich may help a vast number of students from families with poverty background to continue their studies, and earn a better quality of life.

Secondly, the tax reduction for parents of children studying in private schools would lead to a waste of public capital. Obviously, this reduction would cause a difficulty to the tax calculation; therefore, the government would have to recruit a greater workforce in order to handle this sophisticated issue. In addition, the government would also pay the salary for the excessive officials, and this would result in insufficient investments in other crucial public sectors such as education or health care.

Many parents supporting for the idea of tax discounts claim that such tax payments are unfair for them. They point out that it is irrational to require them to pay for the taxes they do not use. Nevertheless, we also pay for the public services that we even do not experience a chance to employ like police or fire brigade. We certainly do not hope for a reduction for these sorts of taxes.

On the whole, I do believe that taxes paying for state schools are necessary to be compulsory for all members of society no matter where their children enroll in.

Writing Feedback / Celebrities are more famous for the look and wealth than for talents and contribution to their field [2]

founder of Microsoft Corporation , is known as the richest man in the world than as the founder of Microsoft.

I think the crossed phrase is redundant. In addition, I suppose you need to develop or explain more clearty about the adverse side of the example of Bill Gate. I do not notice any negative in this instance.

For example, Amitabh Bachchan, a popular Indian movie star, is a fashion icon and his fans, most as youngsters, hardly miss to have his collections. However, these youngsters do not remember him for the number of national awards he has won for his acting skills. Thus, they do not realize the hard work behind their celebrity's fame.

I believe you should employ a totally bad example of celebrities in order to make your argument more effective and persuasive

Writing Feedback / IELTS: CELEBRITY'S ROLE - influence of celebrities to the youth is as well positive as negative [7]

Other people

In the context, I mentioned about celebrities, some of them have negative style of living, and other people = other celebrities

"Spread message of a convenient life" => what do you mean?

I mean this Paris makes this message be known by a wide range of people. I look up for 'spread' in dictionary and it says spread: to affect or make sth affect, be known by, etc

"effort" => "efforts"

Effort (uncountable noun), in this case, means endeavor not attempts (countable)

"Individuals" => "individual"

'individuals' replace the phrase ' a group of people'

"Who achieving" => "who achieve" or "achieving"

I forget eliminating the word 'who' :D
Regarding the introduction, I want to express a balance opinion that celebrities are good in some ways, and are bad in other ways. I think I disclose my opinion: 'I believe' to make clear my idea.

They are all of my opinion. By the way, I am very grateful for your feedback, ningo

Writing Feedback / To me studying alone is more useful - students choice [2]

ButHowever, when he studies with a group he has to continue step by step with his groupies.

AndTherefore, by this maybe he has to put more time for parts he completely know, or even worse he can't eliminate his difficulties during a group study because of not putting enough time for that part

As I know that, we do not use 'but', 'and' at the begining of a sentence.

scientific level

how about the replacement by intellectual capacity

studying will change toturn into tutoring

For student with higher scientific level of course, studying in a group is nothing but waste of time.

These are all my comments about your essay. By the way, you develop and express your ideas in an excellent way, so that everyone can fully understand your meaning.

Writing Feedback / Ielts: why and how parents teach their kids the importance of money? [10]

where their dailyeveryday expenses from

daily sounds so informal.

Take me as an example, my parents always give me one piggy bank as same as theirs to ask me put one or two cents from my daily pocket into this small bank. When this piggy bank is full, the money can help me to cover some of my needs.

Some teachers told me that we did not ought to employ personal experience as an example in IELTS essay.
In terms of synonyms of 'children', I think we can use infants. kids or toddlers interchangably.

Writing Feedback / Advertising has too much influence on what people buy? [4]

Thetoday's world is the competition era.

->The modern world is an era of competition: it sounds more familiar to me

many businesses and companies are investing on the advertising and focusing on customer's absorbing .

Firstly, I replace on by in because according to the Oxford dictionary, 'invest on sth' means you want to make sth better than their present state. In this case, I think you mean that companies take advantage of advertising to earn profit, thus 'in' is more suitable. Secondly, we usually use the phrase customer aweraness instead.

the mind of the customer.

advertising provides an ambiance in which people can be able to get familiar with a new product.

I'm sorry butI have no idea of the function of 'in' in this sentence.

It is obvious that nobody buys the thing whichthathe or she does not know.

You lack a subject here. In addition. 'that' is used in a dependant clause instead of which.

observing there is no name of it on advertisement;

I am so disconcerted to understand this clause.

that how to influence such amazingso amazingly.

because of paying attention to advertisement; people select their goods.

I think a common should be at the position of the semi colon.
These are all of my opinions of your essay. I hope we will have further discussions about these points.

Writing Feedback / IELTS: CELEBRITY'S ROLE - influence of celebrities to the youth is as well positive as negative [7]

Please elegant guys in the forum give me a hand with my essay. You are welcome to leave any of your feedback or even rate my if you do not mind. All of your comments are highly appreciated. Thank you everybody in advance

Topic: Nowadays celebrities are more famous for their glamour and wealth than for achievements, and this sets a bad example to young people. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is true that many celebrities nowadays are famous for their glamour and affluence, but not their hard work, and some people think that they would set a bad example for young generations. However, I believe that other people deserve to be an example of inspiration on account of their achievements.

On the one hand, a number of famous people do achieve fame without putting much effort into their life of work. These people might be known for their glamorous lifestyle and their means. In addition, some of them also derive the fame from the exploitation of mass media in order to attract the attention of audiences. A good example would be Paris Hilton, an heiress, who is famous for nothing but extravagant and dissolute style of living. Therefore, she might spread the message of a convenient life without much endeavor.

On the other hand, there is still a cluster of famous idols whose accomplishments are the adequate inspiration for young people. Actor, musicians and sports stars are conventional models of such celebrities. They always contribute their best talent, determination and ambition to the success of their job. Take Eminem, a white rapper, as an example, with his great perseverance, he has earned the name of the greatest alive performer of the black-dominant genre of music. Consequently, he is obviously an universal symbol of famous individuals who achieving the success by their adroitness and application

On the whole, it appears to me that the influence of celebrities to the youth are positive as well as negative.

Writing Feedback / IELTS: THE ADVERSE OPINION OF SCHOOL LEAVERS [3]

Please give me a favor of checking my essay and giving your opinions of improving it. All comments are highly appreciated. Thank you in advance

Topic: Many young people who leave school hold a negative attitude towards learning. Why does this happen? What are the solutions?

It is undeniable that there is an increasing number of school leavers who censure the academic systems for their school curriculum. There are several causes for this adverse belief, but a range of measures available can be taken to alleviate the problem.

There are several potential factors can be named as the causes of this situation. Firstly, a majority of graduate students suppose that they have a deficiency of virtual practical knowledge in order to become valuable employees. For example, in Vietnam, many universities provide students with primarily theoretical courses, but not support sufficient vocational units or personal skills classes, they, as a consequence, may feel baffled as they enter the over-crowded job market. Secondly, a plenty of dropouts who are lured by the deep - rooted desire of earning a life at a very young age consider schooling as a waste of time. They hold an uphold that workplace is such an optimal environment for aspiring employees that they can acquire relevant competences matching with employers' needs.

However, the negative attitudes can be handled by adopting several solutions. One measure would be for universities to modify their learning curriculums by inserting up-to-date subjects and eliminating obsolete materials. As a result, students would be increasingly interested in their studies. Another remedy is that there should undoubtedly be student counseling departments, of which the functions are producing adequate pieces of advice and orientation for students' future career path. This will help students to fully perceive their prospect jobs.

In conclusion, various options can be taken into account that tackle the problem rising among young people leaving school.

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task 1: Channel one news viewing figures [4]

Dear tiaDS
In my opinion, you generally had a well-organized essay. However, I have another idea of your summary paragraph: one sentence for the overall downward trend of the graph over the period, and another one for the highest drop of 6 p.m News. These are only my subjective opinions.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The first bar graph shows changes in the percentage of residents owning computers over an 8-year period. The second chart compares the proportions of computer ownership by education level in 2002 and 2010.
