I want to explain a few things about your essay.
First of all, the deadline. The deadline for this essay is October the 18th. Not the 19th, not the 28th, not two days later because your dog was ill or your computer broke – the 18th. If it's late, I won't mark it. I won't even read it – you'll fail the assignment! So, please hand it in on time. You can even hand it in early, if you like!
You can email me the essays at j.hartshorn@lmu.ac.uk. That's H-A-R-T-S-H-O-R-N. I'll reply to say I've got it. If I don't reply within a day, it might mean I didn't get it, so please email me again to make sure. You can also bring a paper copy of the essay to my office, but let's be kind to the trees, OK? Email is better for the trees and for me.
Don't forget that you must reference every idea or quote you use that isn't your own idea. And the last page of your essay should be a list of all the books you used, in alphabetical order, not in the order you used them!
And lastly, make it easy for me to read! That means use a clear font. Arial is best, but Times New Roman is fine too. Not Comic Sans please! Size 12 font for the essay, and size 14 for the titles and subheadings. And use page numbers. Any questions?
That’s easy
writing essays is hard for me because I often forget to use the proper punctuation and spelling.
Writhing is difficult for me because when I write an essay, I forget abut the rules like punctuation and spelling rules or alphabetical word
I find it difficult to find time to read. I need to read a lot, and sometimes I don't have the time.
The most difficult thing to me is following all of these rule, and sometimes the teachers give us tight deadlines.
I find it difficult to meet tight deadlines and follow strict formatting rules. When the deadline is close, I think font size shouldn’t matter as much.
I love the exercise. it has countine means important
I listened to the audio twice, then I heard it a third time while reading the transcription.
Listening and reading in English are very useful. Try with series or movies. Listen to them in English and with English subtitles, too.
The first, write is difficult for me, and this exercise i have repeat slow
I always do the assignment on the last day of the deadline.
I can't think of anything about the assignment before the deadline.
But I can think and manage to do something for my assignment on the last day of the deadline.
But I know that this habit is not good for a student.
I need to do everything in advance.
