PROBLEM/SOLUTION - Composition

The fact that there are overcrowded classrooms not only affect students who are trying to learn, but also teacher that would like to teach in a comfortable way. Tere is a long list of problmes that this issue developes shus as the noise, reduced seats, less interation with partners and the teacher, etc. But every problem has its solution.

If there is a classroom in which there are a lot of students nothing productive will happen. The problmen that anoy the most is the noise. An overcrowded classroom is far more noisy than one tha its not; it can bring difficulties not only for listenning to the teacher, also for teaching and speaking fluently, without wasting time to call the atention of the students.

In order to solve this problem, there are some ideas that I propose such as: increase the number of teachers, or on the contrary , decrease the number of people in a classroom; for instance, in an interactive class, students could be divided in two parts to make easier the speaking part and to let the teacher answer all the questions.

To conclude, this is an issue that unfortunately everyone has suffered at least once in his or her life but what we have to do is not just detect the problem, we must solve ir with strategies and carefully, trying to do our best.

PROBLEM/SOLUTION PARAGRAPH

Smoking in public areas is a problem that not only affect non-smokers, also the smokers. It is forbbiden to smoke in restaurants and cafes, but what about terraces?  For me it is a problem to meet in a terrace and smoke in front of friends that do not smoke. There are lots of them that do not care about it but there are other that I have to respect to. This issue affects our friendship too much. In order to solve this trouble, smokers, including me, should go away from them and smoke pacefully without annoying anyone. Another solution is to give up smoking but in general it is more difficult than respecting. So, if smoking is an issue that maes trouble in your surrounding, take kare and try to do your best to solve it, because the problem is yours.

CONTRAST/COMPARATIVE PARAGRAPH - Advantages and disadvantages

Having a job while studying at the University has pros and cons. If you are studying and at the same time working, you won´t have too much time to prepare your exams perfectly, but you have to consider the point that you could earn money for travelling or for going out with friends without asking for money to your parents. On the contrary, going out is another disadvantage that jobs have, if you do both things at the same time you have to realise that your free time will be reduced. So, if you are thinking about studying and working simultaneously you should think aboyt this issues very carefully.

COMPARISON / CONTRAST PARAGRAPH - Comparison paragraph



Reading a real book is a bit more different from reading the same book in an IPad. Reading a book with its sheets, its smell, etc is usually more sensitive than reading it in an IPad because it seems less real, colder and without the same feelings that gives you a book. Nowadays is more often to read books in an IPad because of the money you have to spend in the book, or the time you lose when you go to buy them.  From my point of view, we do too much things by the Internet and reading should be something different and special. 

OPINION PARAGRAPH - Something you like the most and people don´t

Dancing is one of the best things I have ever discovered. It is a very well known activity but there aren´t enough people that practice it, sorry, I meant boys. I dance salsa, bachata, cha cha chá, etc, and all the girls I know, they have problems to look for a boy to dance with them. From my point of view, dancing is one of the best activities that you can do If you like people, having fun etc. That is why I don´t really understand why is it so difficult to find people for practicing that activity. 

OPINION PARAGRAPH - Describe something you consider important



A healthy life is, in my opinion, as important as money. Nowadays there are a lot of people that don´t take care of them and it is an issue that affect people all over the world. I agree with the fact that we are very busy because of our jobs, children etc, but  does it really worth? People, including myself, must think about it and change a bit their routines or include some daily exercise not only for being stronger but also for feeling better and hold out each day a bit more.
