Writing Feedback / Should children, when they'll grow up, do same kind of jobs like their parents? - I have some doubts [6]

Hello Oathbinder

I rewrote some of the most awkwardly sounding sentences for you so that the text sounds better:

Even though many people do believe that they are in the position to choose what should be their children's professional career, I do not quite agree with this point of view. One of the reasons for this is that there is a rationale to think that children will be so much better off being encouraged to rely on their own judgments, when it comes to deciding on what kind of job they would like to do in the future. If, however, parents exercise too much control over their young ones' decision-making, in this respect, it will have a negative effect on the concerned adolescents' sense of responsibleness. Moreover, since people are different, this undermines the validity of the idea that children will be comfortable allowing their parents to make a career-choice for them. Therefore, the idea that there is nothing wrong about pressuring children to follow the footprints of the parents cannot be considered legitimate.

I hope this came of help. Regards.

Essays / Acceptable length of Introduction and Conclusion in an essay [3]

Hello offshorewriters

The size of Introduction and Conclusion usually depends on the paper's size-wise format. Still, when I write essays, I try to make sure that there are at least 150 words in the Introduction (it usually accounts for 5-6 sentences). In this part of the paper, you need to establish a thesis (main idea) that you will aim to explore. If there are more than 10 pages in the essay (275 words per page), then you may consider having 200-275 in the Introduction. Essentially the same principle applies to Conclusion - while writing it, you're expected to summarize the essay's main argumentative points. I hope this helped. Regards.

Below are some adjustments that I think you should consider applying:
gain understanding about the ways of thinking of the others, - to gain a better understanding of people's ways of life in foreign countries

compelled - mandatory
On the one hand, there are two main justifications for why learning a new language is useful for development of people's knowledge about the world. - There are two main reasons for people to consider learning a new language.

Firstly - First
to gain an insight about inhabitants in that country - when it comes to finding out more about the inhabitants of a particular country.
Secondly - Second
in which your horizons about other countries will be broadened. - something that will help one to broaden his or her intellectual horizons
are not enough necessary conditions both in resources and materials for teaching foreign languages - there is the lack of necessary teaching-resources

I hope this came of help. Regards.

Writing Feedback / TOEFL TASK: children prepare for adult life → do a part-time job [2]

Hello

Below are some stylistic adjustments that I think you should apply to the text:

of people's perception about work . - in people's perception of employment
even parents prefer to cultivate their kids to prepare for their future jobs - parents try to raise their children in the manner that would prepare the latter for a particular professional career in the future.

sparing - spare
So I agree - I do agree
to encourage - by encouraging
First of all, it is believed that doing a part-time job is of great assitance to arrange the schedule, which is helpful to prepare for adult life . - First, it is commonly believed that by having a part-time job, one will be much likely to develop time-managing skills, which in turn will help the concerned individual during the adulthood.

but they are also concerned about their family members . - but also to their family members
studying and working - study and work
awareness of finance - awareness of how finances work
It is a crucial choice - it is crucially important
to make money by themselves - to have their own sources of income

Also, I would recommend that you avoid the repetitive phrases, like 'to prepare for adult life'. You could say 'to prepare to what awaits for them in the future'.

I hope this came of help. Regards.

Book Reports / Interior monolog about a short story "Cat in the rain" [4]

Hello costyk1

I rewrote the monologue so that it sounds little better:

I think, my hair does not look so good at all. I stand in front of the mirror, arranging hair locks, and he is just laying on his bed, consumed with reading the book. Is he trying to tell me that this book is more important to him than his wife? If this is the case, it means that I am married to an ungrateful and selfish man. I thought of starting to get undressed so that he pays attention to me, but I now think that it would probably make more sense pouring some water on his head - maybe this will wake him to the reality of living a married life.

Writing Feedback / Clothes? There are more principal factors that should be considered before assessing people [2]

Hello putri22

I rewrote some of the main sentences so that they sound a bit more refined. You should be able to build more text around them:

The issue whether people should be judged on a basis of what they wear continues to strike much controversy. I personally believe that even though it is indeed important for us to pay attention to what we wear, it is utterly inappropriate to assume that one's worth is reflective of what happened to be his or her clothing. One of the possible reasons as to why the concerned practice (judging people by their looks) is still a commonplace occurrence, is that those who dress poorly are assumed to experience the shortage of money, which in turn is often taken as the indication of their lack of education. However, there can be only a few doubts that making opinions about people, solely with respect to how they look, is morally wrong. Therefore, remain a firm believer that the mentioned practice should be considered disgraceful.

I hope, this helped. Regards.

Writing Feedback / The media should focus on exposing ordinary people since it will bring benefits for humans [2]

Hello putri22

I think, it'll add to the text's quality if you rewrite some of the sentences, as suggested below:

1. Nowadays, Media tend to pay little too much attention to the private lives of celebrities. 2. However, this particular practice cannot be considered thoroughly appropriate, because it helps to divert people's attention from the social issues that do matter. 3. After all, there is a good reason to believe that, as a result of being exposed to the information about the private lives of celebrities, teenagers will have a harder time trying to adopt a socially responsible lifestyle.

As you can see, the reformulated sentences naturally derive out of each other, which in turn ensures the smooth flow of argumentative logic. The rest of the text could be readjusted in a similar manner. I hope, this came of help. Regards.

Writing Feedback / It's evident that electronic devices influence the communication between societies when used wrongly [2]

Hello anita11

I think that the text will sound little better if some of the contained sentences are reformulated in the following manner:

1. The ongoing technological progress influences communication and interaction among people to an ever greater extent. 2. In fact, some individuals argue that... 3. I personally agree with this point of view, because there are indeed a number of indications that one's obsession with hi-tech gadgets is detrimental to the concerned person's ability to lead a socially integrated lifestyle. 4. The reason for this is that people's preoccupation with modern technology often causes them to choose in favor of living in the virtual reality. 5. Consequently, the concerned individuals grow increasingly incapable of taking care of their social responsibilities.

The rest of the text is Ok, but you could you use paying little more attention to the semantic connotations of some of the used words. For example, the phrase 'In addition, using gadget, computer and hand phone' isn't very refined, because computers and hand phones are also 'gadgets'. Other than that, your text does make a good argumentative point. Regards.

Writing Feedback / Starting a business, instead of trying to gain a job in an occupation (IELTS Task 2) [4]

Hello Anita11

I took it upon myself to fix the first paragraph in your text: 1. Unemployment is one of the crucial problems, faced by many countries. 2. This is the reason why it represents a common belief that people should seek to start a business of their own, instead of trying to secure a conventional job. 3. I personally think that there are indeed a number of benefits to such an option, which overweight the affiliated drawbacks. 4. The option's main downside has to do with the fact that becoming an entrepreneur is challenging in many respects - not the least because of the ongoing economic recession.

I did it to show you the strategy for simplifying sentences - this will make the text much more readable. I understand, you want to sound sophisticated, but I think it'll make much more sense if you focus on ensuring the text's clarity for now. In its turn, this can be accomplished if you remain observant of the 'cause-effect' principle while writing. That is, you should make sure that every sub-sequential sentence directly derives out of the previous one and defines the actual rationale for constructing the next one. Hopefully, you'll find this helpful. Regards.

Writing Feedback / A breakdown of the consumption of several fuels during a 200-year period is elicited on the graph [3]

Hello nsb

I think you should consider reformulating some of the sentences, so that sound a bit more stylistically refined. Sentence 1:It appears that, even though wood was the most popular type of fuelsinitially, its popularity declined sharply by the end of the period. Sentence 2: In contrast, there was an enormous rise in the usage of coal - despite the temporal reduction in the number of people using coal throughout the period's mid-part. . Sentence 3: In the year 1800, the number of people relying on wood, as the source of energy, appears to have accounted for 100%. Sentence 4: Throughout the course of the sub-sequential periods, however, the usage of wood has plummeted down to 5% and, as of 2000, it is no longer used as the source of energy on an industrial scale. The rest of sentences are Ok more or less, but you could use shortening/simplifying them. Regards.

Writing Feedback / Creative Writing: Descriptive Analysis of a Forest [2]

Hello RVINES

It is rather well written text. However, you should consider replacing some repeatedly occurring words with synonyms. For example, instead of using the word 'lush' for the second and third times, you could use 'exuberant' or 'luxuriant' - the text will sound much better that way. Also, some sentences sound a bit award, like the following : "These types of plant life prove as evidence that a warm and wet climate most likely exists in this photo's location ". You could reformulate this sentence to sound as follows: "Because of the surrounding scenery, there can be only a few doubts that we talk some warm and wet climate in the photo ". Another thing - many sentences in your text could be simplified, which will make them much more intelligible, like the following: "Calmness and serenity are a couple words that come to mind when I view this photo ". You could just say: "I when I look at the photo, I feel calm and serene". Overall, the text makes much sense - you should just go through it again and apply the suggested corrections. I hope, this came of help. W.

Writing Feedback / Healthcare, lack of money, school for kids - the percentage of problems facing by immigrants; IELTS1 [6]

Hello anita11

I think, the first paragraph will sound much better if rewritten as follows: "The displayed chart reveals the percentile ratio of problems, faced by immigrants, in relation to their age. As this chart reveals, most immigrants experience a number of financial and health-related challenges while trying to adapt to a new country. It is also rather clear that the concerned individuals do not think of the problem of trying to a suitable school for children to be quite as acute, as the rest". I think, you should consider using simpler sentences until you get a better grip on the language. Other than that, the text is easy to understand. Regards.

Writing Feedback / Including hard-working philosophy in a educational curriculum is the best way to get succes -IELTS 2 [2]

Hello Choirulmajdi
I just wanted to highlight a few errors in the text. First, you use the idiom 'a lot' a bit too excessively - it is more of a jargon actually, which means you should try to avoid using it in the written text. The word 'many' is much more appropriate. Second, there are a few words in your text that that appear to have been used in the wrong context. For example, instead of 'prosperity', you should have used 'wealth'. Also, it is stylistically awkward to say 'people get overwhelming prosperity'. You should consider 'people become enormously wealthy/rich' instead. Finally, try not using the same words (like 'people') too often. There are other terms that convey essentially the same meaning, like 'persons', 'individuals', 'citizens', 'folks'... I hope, this came of help. Regards.

Writing Feedback / "Old is gold" - an old friend is definitely more important in life than a new friend [3]

Hello RachelG

I find your essay rather well written. Still, you could apply a few corrections. If you say 'on Earth' you should use a capital letter, because the reference is made to the planet. When you refer to the soil (as substance) than you say 'earth'. Also, you should consider eliminating the phrase 'It has also been scientifically proven' unless you want to substantiate this claim with the reference to some scientific study. If I were you, I would also remove the idiom 'First of all' for stylistic reasons. It would be much better if you say 'First - ' (argument), 'Second - ' (argument).. etc.). Finally, you could mention what is the main advantage of making new friends - it will add objectivity to your text. Regards.

Writing Feedback / Getting new job and having interview are linked as a common way within companies. [2]

Hello indah_hai

I think you can improve your text by reformulating some passive-voice passages in it. I rewrote two initial sentences so that you get a better idea as to what I mean. Sentence 1. It represents a commonplace practice with many companies to interview job-applicants, in order to test whether the latter are professionally adequate or not. Sentence 2. Even though there can be only a few doubts, as to the practice's validity, I believe that it is possible to increase the effectiveness of conventional approaches to hiring people. The point is - you should try making every sub-sequential sentence as concise, as possible. Hope, this came of help. Regards.

Writing Feedback / A separate room for nicotine users may limit the bad effect of the cigarette smoke on non-smokers [3]

Hello Riiskacha03
It appears that your text could have benefited from being stylistically refined a bit more. For example, the introductory sentence can be reformulated to sound as follows: It now became a common practice in many countries to designate special areas in public places, where people are allowed to smoke cigarettes. Moreover, even though your text does mention some issues, associated with the subject matter at stake, it does not make much of an argumentative point. This, in turn, makes the beginning of the concluding sentence ('In conclusion') rather uncalled for - you have not explored the controversial aspects of the discussed issue, in order for your conclusion to be fully substantiated. Again, this is just my opinion. I hope you will find it helpful. Regards.

Writing Feedback / What Motivate People to Stay Longer in Particular Company? [2]

Hello nuni11

There are a few minor stylistic/grammar errors in the text, but they do not affect its readability too much. The argumentative points are well organized. It is much better of a text, as compared to the one submitted by you yesterday. Nevertheless, I think you should consider referring to the so-called Systems Theory, in order to substantiate your claims. The Theory's main provision - 'The whole is greater than the sum of its parts'. This is the reason why it is wrong to assume that employees working in the strong collaborative mode (teamwork) are motivated by the prospect of receiving a monetary reward alone. As an integral part of the team, an employee is often concerned with seeking emotional self-actualization - something that motivates him or her to remain professionally committed more than anything else does. This is why monetary incentives commonly prove ineffective when it comes to motivating employees.
