Comment: Nguyễn Thị Nhật Phương
Your essay quite good! I found some small mistakes, I corrected. Hope that they
make your essay better. In the topic sentence, you should write:” Have you ever
travelled with your friends? My friends and I had a trip to Nha Trang for three days .
It was the first time we have travelled since we were in university. Therefore, it was
memorable memories which I had never more ecstatic in my life.”
You’d better have “memorable” or “unforgettable” in order to give reader’s attention
and make your essay seem more special. In the body, I didn’t realize your topic
sentence. I think you should add a topic sentence.
Version 2

to Nha Trang for three days. I had never more ecstatic before, this is the most
unforgottable memory in my life.

Have you ever had conflict with someone else? When I was a student in
secondary school, my friend and I had a misunderstanding. Although this is a little

misunderstanding, it has kept me in my thought.
This misunderstanding occurred as a result of my lying to my mother. I still
remember that it was a beautiful day. We had an afternoon leave from school, so


we made a plan to go out. Because of my mother’s severity, I dared not ask her
permission and told her that I was in school. This afternoon was a blast time for us.
When I arrived home, my mother was waiting for me. She didn’t look so good.
When she found out that I was lying, she was extremely angry so that she beat me
up. I thought that my friend told to my mother so I was angry with her. I haven’t
talked to her for five days. My friend tried to talk to me, but I ignored her. I even
broke her bicycle, and she had to walk home. A few days later, when my family
had lunch, my mother said that her colleague had seen me in the street and talked
to her. I was remarkably amazed and felt sorry for my friend. I apologized to her
and fortunately she accepted my apology. We were as close as we used to.

Have you ever had conflict with someone else? When I was a student in
secondary school, I had a misunderstanding with my best friend. I felt guilty and
regretful every time I remind it.
This was an unforgettable misunderstanding for me . I still vividly remember that it
happened on a beautiful day and I was gotten off school, so I made a plan to go out
with my friend. Because of my mother’s severity, I did not dare to ask for her
permission and told her that I was at school. That afternoon was majestically a
blast for us. When I came back home, my mother had already waited for me and
her expression had been aggressive. Subsequently, she was extremely angry and
beaten me up due to finding out that I had deceived. I supposed that my friend had
told to my mother so I was extremely angry with her and I had not talked to her for
five days. Although my friend tried to indicate the truth to me, I still ignored her
and even broke her bicycle down. A few days later, when my family had lunch, my
mother told me the truth that her colleague had seen me on the street and talked to
her. I was suddenly amazed and felt guilty. So that, I apologized to her and
fortunately she accepted my apology, we were as close as we used to be.
After that experience, I never lied to my parents again, and I also learned
remaining calm in every situation to have well-behaved. I think I should treasure
this friendship and not allow misunderstandings to compromise it.

Version 1
Nowadays, TV becomes more popular with almost every family. However,
some people think that TV has many negative effects on children. Personally, I
believe that TV brings more benefits than drawbacks.
Watching TV can brings lots of advantages. Firstly, watching TV helps
children enhance their background knowledge about a variety of aspects thanks to
education programs. When children watch TV, they can develop critical thinking
because there are lots of channel raise some questions for audiences and they need


to answer the questions or look at the photos to find down something. TV is also
good for children to entertain with some fun programmes. After learning for a long
time, children can watch TV to reduce stress and relax. Moreover, children can be
more active due to watching TV. Watching sports programs like football, volleyball
or swimming is a great way to get children interested in the outdoor activities. The
TV shows encourage children take part in physical activities so they can promote
good health and improve their emotions. However, children who watch TV a lot
can have trouble with their health and many disadvantages, so they should be able

to watch TV in a suitable time.

Version 2
Nowadays, TV becomes more popular with almost every family. However,
some people think that TV has many negative effects on children. Personally, I
strongly believe that TV brings more benefits than drawbacks.


On the one hand, watching TV can bring lots of advantages. Firstly, watching
education programs helps children enhance their background knowledge about a
variety of aspects. When children watch TV, they can develop critical thinking
because there are lots of channels that raise some questions for audiences and they
need to answer the questions or look at the photos to find down something. TV is
also good for children to entertain with some fun programs. After learning for a

long time, children can watch TV to reduce stress and relax. Moreover, children
can be more active due to watching TV. Watching sports programs like football,
volleyball or swimming is a great way to get children interested in outdoor
activities. The TV shows encourage children to take part in physical activities so
they can promote good health and improve their emotions.
On the other hand, many people think that television may be harmful for
children. However, some researches show that the children’s health are affected
since they spend too much time in watching TV. Furthermore, the cons will be
overcome if parents take care of their children and give them the best way to use
TV effectively.
To sum up, watching TV is very helpful for children, but children should not
watch TV too long. It is extremely important that children need a balance between
watching TV and doing outdoor activities.


Topic 2: Is it a good idea for university students to have a part-time job?
Outline
1. Introduction: Nowadays, university students tend to have a part-time job. Some
parents do not allow their children to take on extra work because they think that
doing part-time job can cause negative effects. Personally, I strongly believe that
having part-time job while studying at university is a good idea.
2. Body:
Many university students choose a job to do outside school hours because they see
the benefits it brings.
- Earn money to pay bill, tuition fee…
- Get work experience.
- Learn useful skills: time management, money management, team work,
organizational skills,…
- Expand networking opportunities
Conversely, some people think that having part-time job may have disadvantages

on students. While doing part-time jobs, students will have a busy schedule and
they will get less time for study and themselves so their health and study will be
affected. However, if students can balance among working, studying and relaxing,
these negative effects can be completely eliminate and students can gain more
experiences that can help them in the future.
3. Conclusion: In conclusion, I definitely believe that doing part-time job bring
many advantages to university students. Students have to manage their time
accordingly and not forget that their primary task is studying.

Many university students choose a job to do outside school hours because
they see the benefits it brings. Firstly, it can help students earn money to pay
tuition fee, buy the required things and reduce the burden of their expenses over
their parents. The second advantage is the part-time job gives the real life work


experience. This work experience will help students in getting a job after
graduation because employers look for employees who understand work
environment and work well as part of a team. Moreover, university students can
learn many useful skills such as time management, money management, team
work, organizational skills, etc. Doing the job with study left students with less
time and a busy schedule, so students have to manage their time in the way that
both their study and work will not get affected. Students can also learn the value of
money. Nobody does budgeting with the pocket money that they got from parents
until they make their own money.When students start earning money, they have to
think about it and plan how and where they will spend their money. During parttime job, students will meet many people, this is an opportunity to grow their
network.
Conversely, some people think that having part-time job may have
disadvantages on students. While doing part-time jobs, students will have a busy

The first and the third reasons

For me, these parts should try

It does have the main idea

The connectors that contained

Version 2
Nowadays, university students tend to have a part-time job. However, some
parents not allow their children to take on extra work because they think that doing
a part-time job can cause several negative effects. Personally, I strongly believe
that having a part-time job while studying at university is a good idea.
Many university students choose a job to do outside school time as they find
the benefits it brings. Firstly, students who have a part-time job, are able to control
their finacial ability. With a certain amount of money is paid for their works,

students could literally pay tuition fee, buy the required things and reduce the
burden of their expenses over their parents. In addition, the part-time job gives the
personal experience. This experience will help students get a job after graduation
as employers require their employees to have actual knowledge about what they
are going to do. Moreover, university students can learn a variety of essential skills
such as time management, financial management, team work, organizational skills,
etc. Doing the job while studying makes students have to manage their time in the
way that both their learning and work are not distracted. Students can also learn the
value of money. Nobody does a budget with the pocket money receiving from


parents until they make their own money.When students start earning money, they
have to carefully plan how and where they will spend their money.
Conversely, some people suppose that students should not have a part-time
job and ought to focus on their learning and have time to relax due to its impacts
on students. While doing part-time jobs, students will have a busy schedule and
they will get less time for study and themselves so their health and study will be
affected. However, if students can balance among working, studying and relaxing,
these negative effects can be completely eliminated and students can gain more
experiences that can help them in the future.
In conclusion, I definitely believe that doing a part-time job bring many
advantages to university students. Students have to manage their time accordingly
and not forget that their primary task is studying.


Topic 3: It is said that school uniforms should be mandatory in high school.
Do you agree or disagree?
Outline
1. Introduction: Nowadays, every school has their own uniforms and students
must wear uniforms to go to school. Some people think that school uniforms

should be compelling while others argue that this requirement is not necessary.
From my perspective, I believe that students should be required to wear uniform at
school.
2. Body: There are many reasons that school uniforms should be compulsory at
school.
- Create equality at school
- Help student focus on their study
- Don’t waste time to choose clothes
Counter-argument: In contrast, many people think that wearing school uniforms is
unnecessary.
- Uniforms are more expensive than other clothes
- Make students uncomfortable.
However, it is clearly to see that school uniforms make students feel equal,
promote school spirit and provide a safe school environment.
3. Conclusion: To sum up, school uniforms help school become more united, safe,
and help students focus on their study, not their clothes. Moreover, through the
uniform policy, parents can save costs without buying too much clothes. Therefore
I favor the idea of wearing uniforms in high school.

while others argue that this requirement is not necessary. From my perspective, I
believe that students should be required to wear uniform at school.
There are many reasons that school uniforms should be compulsory at school.
Firstly, school uniforms create the equality at school. Nowadays, the wealthy
families provide their children the lastest fashion while the disadvantaged families
are only able to give their children simple clothes. This may make students lack of


confidence at school. Therefore, if every students wear uniforms, it would have no

stigma and no discrimination among students. Secondly, wearing uniforms helps
students focus on studying. If students are forced to wear uniforms, they are less
concerned about how they look and how they fit with their peers, and they do not
need to compare themselves with other students as they all wear the same outfit.
Furthermore, wearing school uniforms also helps students save time. When
students wear uniforms, they easily get ready for school in the morning as they do
not need to choose clothes. This also help students get dressed quickly and reduce
stress on thinking about the today’s outfit.
In contrast, many people think that wearing school uniforms is unnecessary. They

Vesion 2
Nowadays, every school has their own uniforms and students must wear uniforms
to go to school. Some people think that school uniforms should be compelling
while others argue that this requirement is not necessary. From my perspective, I
believe that students should be required to wear uniform at school for three main
reasons.
There is no denying that wearing uniforms has lots of positive effects on students.
Firstly, school uniforms create equality at school. Nowadays, wealthy families
provide their children with the lastest fashion while poor families are just able to
give their children simple clothes. Therefore, it can make students peer pressure
and lack of confidence at school. Obviously, if students wore uniforms, it would be
no stigma and no discrimination against them. Secondly, wearing uniforms helps
students focus on studying. If students are forced to wear uniforms, they are less
concerned about how they look and how they fit with their peers, and they do not
need to compare themselves with other students as they all wear the same outfit.
Furthermore, wearing school uniforms also helps students save time. When
students wear uniforms, they easily get ready for school in the morning as they do
not need to choose clothes. This also helps students get dressed quickly and reduce
stress on thinking about today’s outfit.
In contrast, many people think that wearing school uniforms is unnecessary. They
suppose that uniforms are more expensive than other clothes and can make
students uncomfortable, and even causing bullying. However, it is clear to see that
school uniforms promote school community spirit, provide a safe school
environment and improve attendance and discipline.
To sum up, school uniforms help school become more united, safer, and help
students focus on their education, not their clothes. Moreover, through the uniform
policy, parents can save costs without buying too many clothes. Therefore I favor
the idea of wearing uniforms in high school.
Version 3
These days, pupils are compelled to put their uniforms on at school. Some people

suppose that school uniforms should be obligated while others consider that this
requirement is not necessary. From my perspective, I believe that high school
students should be required to wear uniform for three main reasons.


Firstly, school uniforms create a sense of equality at school. Nowadays, wealthy
families provide their children with the latest fashion while poor families are just
able to give their children simple clothes. Therefore, it can make envy and
dissatisfaction among students. However, if uniforms are required, all students are
expected to wear the same so it would be no stigma and no discrimination against
them.
Secondly, wearing uniforms helps students focus on studying rather than
fashion. Teenagers tend to express themselves through appearances so they usually
dress fashionable clothes to draw attention. Obviously, if students are forced to
wear uniforms, they are less concerned about how they look and how they fit, and
they do not need to compare themselves with other students.
Furthermore, wearing school uniforms also helps students save time. When
students put uniforms on, they easily get ready for school in the morning as they do
not need to choose clothes. This also helps students get dressed quickly and reduce
stress on thinking about today’s outfit.
In contrast, many people think that wearing school uniforms is unnecessary. They
suppose that uniforms are more expensive than other clothes and it can be
impractical and uncomfortable. However, it is clear to see that school uniforms
promote school community spirit, provide a safe school environment and improve
attendance and discipline.
To sum up, school uniforms help school become more united, safer, and help
students focus on their education, not their clothes. Moreover, through the uniform
policy, parents can save costs without buying too many clothes. Therefore I favor
the idea of wearing uniforms in high school.
