When going to write an essay, at least we have to understand the methods of writing. There are several sections in an article. There were three parts of writing, they are the beginning, middle and end. It is the initial the selection of topic or subject, the center is supporting sentences or advocate of the sentence and the third part is the end of a sentence identical to cover such a conclusion. In an essay, these three elements were found. Did you ever learn how to write ? Did you write the correct method?

Your writing is pretty good though. Practice make perfect the proverbs says. Learning can not only acquired from school but also from other people or things.

yes, writing should be practical. It needs to be exercised, otherwise it'll be hard to write if we don't practice in the real world.

I learned how to write when I started working in the BPO industry. Not only that we need to speak in english fluently to do our job but we, sometimes need to use the email to respons to most queries about our service. It is nice to learn how to write when you lear how to speak correct english first. This way, you will be more aware of you grammar lapses.

It is a challenging job then. Grammar is very important and to be able to write you must at least master a little grammar and building sentences as well.

I think it is. Spoken and written both different. Each person is required to write business letter with proper grammar. People who master English language has acquired four basic skills, writing, speaking, listening and reading.

hi jtj, i fee there is difference in spoken language and written. When you are replying the query you can use casual words but writing a reply should be in business English with good grammar.

I´m a writer in my native language and a retired professor of literature at the university, but I still ask myself those questions when I write. There are techniques and there is a rethoric of the speech that can help, but still it is more important to have your own ideas clear in your head. And that is not so easy sometimes. When you know exactly what you want to say, the title (so important) seems to come out from heaven and the rest goes along.

For me no because even if you said the step process then no way to understand my English accent is not good as long as the grammar so that's mine.

When I was schooling, writing composition is a must-have. In fact, we were made to write one every week. I guess this is where the skills were honed. But since leaving school, there isn't much opportunity to practice it. As a result, what I had learned, I have return them to the teachers.

hi, for grammar, write short sentences. I think we learn to be creative in writing and thus give out creative content. There is a site called daily writing tips, browse and learn, it is really helping me to improve my knowledge.

oh my god I always hated all of that so much. especially in college! It felt impossible for me and I hated that style so much. I would never get the hang of it and I would stare at the guidelines and the way to organize the sentences and I would always think finally I understood how to set it up, and then the teacher would mark it wrong and say it was not the correct way to do it. I love to write and all of that ruined writing for me. I think you can write a cohesive and brilliant piece of work in your own way with that sort of forced system.

Yeah, I also didn't like writing class. It does not mean I hate it. We're taught by a smart teacher and taught us quickly in which It was hard to catch up. Luckily, I'm not that too stupid, I can follow. English is foreign language, so to write in English is also hassle.

Hi! Writing a composition is a talent. Not all have this talent but I guess most can write. Just organize your thoughts. Impact must be placed on the first and last part. You must be able to capture the attention of your reader. But if your intention is just to share your feeling or experience then there are no rules to follow.:))

I think that to capture the attention of our reader is the most difficult.

I'm still in the process of learning. I really don't know how to write using the correct method.

It is for the first time, I also did not master the concept of writing. I had been through difficult writing class and taught by a strict lecture. He taught us how important writing was, but to be able to writing was more than just knowing the method.

Except for school I never learned how to write. A writer you are or not. You don't need to learn methods to catch a person with words or your thoughts. Some people just have it in them. Even if they are terrible in reading themselves. To catch someone has nothing to do with those elements but with the words you use, the language you speak to catch someone's attention, heart and mind. To my opinion there is no correct method. What correct is your readers-public will tell you since if you are a boring writer no method will make that better or you more interesting.

So, we didn't have to learn. The reader will tell whether our writing excited them or not? You tried to say that it was not important to learn writing method, but the choosing word that make it appealed to other people, didn't they?
