Easy English Essay

Of course, the best time is that you are on time or ahead of the schedule for at least a couple of minutes.  That is when it comes to meeting someone else or attending an interview from the job you have applied.  But when it comes to learning, especially on how to write easy English essay, then this “it is better late than never” maxim will always be applicable.

First of all, this is almost the same from those mind games which you need to utilize your coconut shell to churn great ideas to be conveyed in the way you understood them and to be passed on to your readers the same thoughts you’ve comprehended.  And, by this maxim “it is better late than never,” you really need to start form the basic - subject and verb agreement to compound complex sentences.

Learning how to write good essay is almost the same to learning how to speak, speaking in the sense that you really are talking to some about your ideas you want to share.  Writing is speaking too, only the form of other medium which is writing.  Of course, there are big differences between the two, but when you have learned how to write, that is the time you learn how to speak the language too.

As I keep mentioning here, reading is the best prerequisite of writing.  When you read and understand what ideas are presented in the reading material, then you have started to learn how to express it in your owned words too.  You can try.  Read an article, then try to write your reactions on it.

In writing your reactions, do not write long sentences.  Simple sentences with a subject and predicate will do.  This is for to easily compare and trace out where is the subject and the predicate and also the subject and verb agreement.   You will check the thoughts of each sentences in the  reaction later.

I suggest you start writing 5 sentences for your reaction or make it 3 if you find it very hard to make one.

This is just an example Opening Remarks to be delivered for high school students.  This speech was actually delivered in one the Science activities of the high school.

Do you remember this jingle? “Great things start from a small beginning,” do you?

Albert Einstein, Thomas Edison, John Napier are just few scientists to mention who, from their curiosity and unceasing search for the betterment of the human race had formulated logical computations which serves as the basis of inventing sophisticated machines of today.  They all started from the first step.

The flying colors your teachers will give you from these activities are not just a mere stimulant for you to study harder but for you to think dipper and to cultivate your inner talents.  Your talents being accompanied by socialization like this activity will mold you not into a liability of the society but an asset and a better functioning individual of our country and of the world as whole.

“A journey of a thousand miles starts from a single step.”  I would like to congratulate you my dear students.  Your journey to life has begun and you are now in your second step.

Good luck.

The following article is a speech formulated by one of my friends currently pursuing her Nursing course.  She is on her 2nd year college and this speech is only one the requirements needed on her “Public Speaking” subject.

I consider this article as an example of how to formulate easy English essay.

Life’s Journey

By: Juenesse Fetalcorin, BSN - 2B

 Life really / is full of challenges / and not all of us / have the chance / to go through with these challenges.  Though / we are all endowed with talents, / the choice of profession and occupation, / most of the time, / is dictated with environmental forces. /

There are persons / who became successful from their chosen endeavors. / The first person that attracted my attention / is our very own, / the first Asia wide to hold four titles / in four different categories. / From ordinary fish vendor, / he became famous because of his ability / to knock down all his opponents. / Your smile indicates / you know already / this successful person I’m talking about. / You’ve got it right. / Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao / is the first Filipino boxer / to hold four titles / in four different categories / in the boxing arena. /

His dedication to his works / had made him successful. / Though there were instances / that had been aired on T.V., / he did postpone the supposed to be scheduled training, / but when he started the training, / he really is following the training schedule religiously. / His being famous in the country / has opened him more  opportunities / like absorbing him / as a military reserve personnel, / if I’m not mistaken, / he gained a Master Sergeant rank / after his recent fight / with David Diaz of Mexico. / He also got the chance / to develop his singing career…. / Do you know the title of his song?…. /  I doubt it…. / GMA 7 also give him the opportunity / to host a program entitled / “Pinoy Records”, / not to include some of his product endorsement / that adds more to his wealth and prestige. /

Mr. Pacquiao maybe learned / or some of his family or friends / told him to continue his studies / because, / obviously, / he is no longer an ordinary Filipino, / but an icon / that represents the Filipino people. / His choice to continue his studies / will not only open him / another bunch of opportunities, / but also to enhance his knowledge / about his chosen course / and to learn / how to speak the English language. / We could note / that he is learning the language / the way he speaks on his interviews….

The second person that captivates my attention / is not totally a pure Filipino / but a Filipino-American vibrant guy / who is now one / to represent the Philippines / in the Beijing Olympics. / He is actually one / of the endorsers of Milo energy drinks. / You might ask / why I choose this person? Well, / it’s not only that I drink Milo once and a while / but I am really impressed / to individuals who are endowed with patriotism / and could be able to sacrifice a bit / for the sake of his/her mother country. /

I am talking about Miguel Molina. / He lives in Berkley, California, / but went home here in the Philippines /to represent our country / in Beijing Olympics / in the swimming competition. / His being patriotic inspires me / because not all Filipinos / who got the chance to go / and live abroad / return home with the same patriotic value. / In fact, / most often than not, / Filipinos migrating in the United States in particular / forget / if not totally eradicate / the mother tongue / and later the culture they possess. /

On one of Miguel Molina’s online interview, / it appears to me / that he was hailed with Filipino values. / Hopefully, / he is joining the Olympics for pure patriotism / and not for the money / and prestige that lay ahead. /

To end up my journey to life, / I would like to share my views / with regards to proper guidance.  / At our age, / since we are still in the process / of developing and building our own careers, / I believe, / we are still bound to be guided / by our parents or guardians. / Obviously, / there are numerous temptations around us / that if we get hooked up, / for sure, / it will hamper us to pursue our dreams / if not totally stop dreaming for this endeavor. / Proper guidance / really plays a very important role / in achieving a good life.

Living under the roof / and with the close monitoring of a priest, / I think, / is another thing, / but has contributed a lot / in achieving such goal. / The Las Piñas Boys Choir / is an example of produce / and as a result / of proper guidance monitored by a priest. / Of course, / both the Boys, / the conductor /and the Las Piñas parochial church / had played their best role in their lives. /

Base on psychological and physical developments, / this 9-12 age range is the gang age / where young individuals / learn the ways of grouping / in which / a factor that could separate / and divide each boys views. / This would have hampered there success / but because of proper training and guidance, / those obstacles had been overcame. /

As mentioned earlier, / guidance plays a vital role in our journey to life. / Let us listen to our parents / and guardians most of the time, /if not once in a while.

Good luck to all of us / and God bless us all.

Before you answer the questions bellow, you need to know first a brief info about Sentence, Subject and Predicate.

Sentence - is a group of words that explains a complete idea and it composes of a Subject and a Predicate.
