How to Write a Summary 

i dont remember quality being this good in 2012-

This guy taught me summary well in 3 mins than my school professor in 3 hours!

My guy just summarized how to write a summary. Absolute legend

*when you have a summary due in 7 minutes and you haven't started*

This guy is like the PERFECT person to be teaching writing structure to people. You're so calm, clear, and descriptive! It's like any anxiety/stress you could get from writing goes straight out the window. Thank you!

I just wanna know why all the good teachers are just on the RU-vid ! If my language teacher can just a little bit like you, I will be muuuuuuuuch better!

Good luck with the english exam lads 👌

Summarization Tips: Clarity: Ensure your summary is clear and easy to understand. Brevity: Keep it concise, focusing on the most important points. Paragraph Structure: Maintain a well-structured paragraph format. Topic Sentence: Start with a topic sentence that includes the title, author, and speaker (if applicable). Supporting Sentences: Follow the same order as the original text when paraphrasing. Objective: Avoid adding personal opinions; maintain objectivity.

writting summaries you must not include:specific details,dates or figures unless essential a summarie must be concise, not wordy(not descriptive) a summerie should mantain a good paragraph structeure (topic sentence,supporting sentence,cocluding sentences) In a topic sentence you should identify:the author,title,speaker, of the original material in you topic sentences. topic sentences are the main point supporting sentences Always try to follow the order of information is presented in the orginal material always paraphrase no do direct information be objective do not give you opinion
