    I'm 49 years old, and I will be attending College for the first time in March. I'm currently taking a Introduction to English 101 class, and this Assignment is one of the many writing assignments she has given, it's actually due next week. Thank you for the Video, I'll have to watch it again so my brain can absorb the information lol

    Very similar to April's comment below, I am 47 years old, and I am taking my first college class, English 101. I am writing my first comparison and contrast essay on two amusements parks, Disney World and Universal Studios, using the block method. Thank you for doing an amazing job explaining the break down of the 4 paragraphs. I am SUPER nervous.

      Glad the video was useful. I have not heard of the "chunking method" for the comparison contrast essay. Usually, when we refer to "chunking" with language, we use that term to explain how we break information down into smaller bits or "chunks" to make understanding faster and easier. Hope this helps!

Once you start thinking about what you do and see around you, I bet you will come up with two great things to compare!

    The second body paragraph about subject 2
    And the third body paragraph is it right if i write the similarities between these two subject??

    • @WorldwideSpeak
      @WorldwideSpeak  Před rokem +1

      When I taught it to my class, their papers only had 4 paragraphs. The introduction, similarities between the 2 subjects, differences between the 2 subjects, the conclusion.
      If you need to write an essay with 5 paragraphs, I would probably suggest that you use the Point-by-Point method.

    • @WorldwideSpeak
      @WorldwideSpeak  Před 3 lety

      Thank you for the kind words!
      As for your paper - I believe what your teacher wants is for you to pick 2 things and show how they are different. For example, let's say I wanted to discuss the differences between Chicago and Houston. I would pick 3 ways in which they differ (geographic location, building structures, city layout) and give specific details about each of those.
      Hope this helps. Let me know if you need further clarification. Best of luck. You can do this!!!

    @ShazWag Před 3 lety

    A nice clear explanation. However, it's incorrect to say that something is "different than" something else; it's different 'to' or 'from' something else. You can use 'than' for comparatives such as bigger, smaller, faster 'than'.... Additionally, the correct sentence is 'show whether there were similarities, differences, or both'; not "was". I'll never understand American English. Just saying.
