Example of An Essay For Toefl Preparation

The following essay is what I've done on my preparation. This has been checked by my Lecture. I hope this example can help you to write an essay for TOEFL preparation :)


Topic:
Some students prefer to study alone, while other students prefer to study with others. Discuss the advantages of each type of studying. Then indicate which you prefer and why.


Introduction Paragraph :

As a university student, studying is a must. There are two types of study; study alone and study with others. Each type of study has its own advantages. Those who study alone feel like they can concentrate more on studying, and those who study with others feel like they can understand the material better. The following reasons indicate the advantages of each type of studying.



Supporting Paragraph 1:
Some students prefer to study alone because they can more concentrate more on studying. They can decide when and where they want to study. Besides this, they can decide the method of study and for how long they will study. Studying in a quiet situation will make them more able to concentrate on studying. This means they can study more efficiently because studying alone saves a lot of time.



Supporting Paragraph 2:
However, there are those who prefer to study with others than to study alone. An interactive learning process here can support those who do not understand something clearly to understand the material better. For some people, this learning method is more effective because the interactive process between one person to the others will give strong memory in their own brain.


Concluding Paragraph:
I am type of person who prefers to study alone than to study with others because I am a moody person. If I study alone, I'm free to decide when, where, and how long I will study. Studying alone can save my time, so I can spend my time doing other useful activities. In conclusion, studying alone brings more advantages for me.
