Sample Word Essay Prompts - Do Not Copy Them
Sample Word Essay Prompts - Do Not Copy ThemSample word essays or sample essay prompts are useful and all around great. If you write a good sample, you will get some decent feedback on how well you did.The writing sample that you give your friends or students is almost useless, unless you show them that you know what you are doing when you use that sample. Even if you do give them a sample essay they have no idea how to use it because most writing samples only teach you how to copy from them, nothing else. My first lesson was, 'Do not copy them; copy your own writing.' If I got a test, I would always choose the test that I liked the most and read about it for several weeks before getting the actual test.New writers do not understand what the sample writer has to say, they read the whole sample. If you tell them that they will be able to give the correct answer, if they copy it, they will copy it wrongly.Sample essay prompts can be very helpful but they must not be used too much. Most writers are very busy and often cannot get enough time to write an essay. People don't have enough time to devote to an essay; if they have to sit for a week, they cannot concentrate and remember everything.It is hard for a person to stick to the writing sample when they read that a sample is done, just as it is hard for a person to continue studying for the test. I just let the test go on and moved on to the next one, each week my timesheet read out which was my personal best.When giving someone a sample essay prompt the rules are very simple. Do not copy the sample word for word, do not put a title in place of your own words, and do not put every question in the essay prompt. Most of the sample ideas are related to words that could be used in the subject or theme of the essay. If the sample idea is about a topic where you cannot include the word, it is better to omit it completely and then look for a theme or topic idea that fits into that topic.Sample essay prompts are great too ls to use and to get better at writing but when it comes to determining if you did a good job, the real answer is by making a good choice. Do not copy a sample; make your own.
