Week 2: Essay writing

I have found this website which includes many resources among them are: writing and teaching writing, style guides, and Grammar and mechanisms. It includes a lot of information about how to avoid plagiarism, the different types of essays and the use of punctuation.

When I am to write an essay, I find many difficulties especially those related to how to organize the information, in which part of the essay I need to provide examples. Besides, I also find some difficulties to distiguish between the different types of essays I have to write.

In order to improve my English, last week I listened to some Eurovision songs, since I am a fan of this type of contest, that are sung in English such as Germany´s song "You let me walk alone", in which the singer talks about his deceased father. Here is part of its lyrics:

I was born from one love of two hearts

We were three kids and a loving mum

You made this place a home

A shelter from the storm

You said I had one life and a true heart

I tried my best and I came so far

But you will never know

'Cause you let me walk this road alone
