In the past two weeks, we have seen a couple of ways of writing advice. You can use those structures regularly if you need to. You need to write advice in a way that readers will appreciate.
If your advice is too simple, it will be of no use. But if it's too complex, your readers will be confused. This week, we will consider how you can include lots of questions into one single piece. Using this method, you will not answer specific questions one by one but write some general advice that provides answers to many of the more common problems.
Homework
Is it useful or is it a curse?
Homework seems to be always with us. It is a constant in an ever-changing world. Homework is a subject that can stir powerful emotions. Some students appreciate the opportunity to expand their knowledge. Others get stressed and lose sleep if they find it too difficult or cannot finish assignments on time.
Of course, many factors are out of your control. It is the teacher who decides the content as well as the amount of homework you receive. You must remember that whatever your opinion, teachers have your best interests at heart. They have an investment in your success.
So the first thing to do is to discuss with your teacher any issues you have. Most teachers will listen. If they can, they will often adapt the work they ask you to do at home to maximise its value to you. Remember that teachers were students themselves when they were younger.
