It is a common knowledge that we like to do the things that we can do. Someone might like sports, since he/she is good at sports. It can be told about everything in our life.

When talking about academic study, about essay types in particular, we can divide all essay types into the students’ favorite ones and the essay types that students hate writing because of their inability to write them.

According to statistical data, students hate writing descriptive essays, classification essays and argumentative essays. It is rather difficult for them to make priorities of what things to include into description and which ones are better to take away while writing descriptive essays; it is no less difficult to classify something according to a single principle while making classification essays; it is also very difficult to search for the most essential arguments for writing argumentative essays.

The students’ favorite essay types are: opinion essay, for and against essay and personal narrative essays.

•    Opinion essays are easy to write, since a writer simply states his/her personal opinion on a certain problem;
•    For and against essays are not challenging since students like arguing. In fact, nearly everyone likes to participate in arguing for having an opportunity to convince someone in accuracy of his/her personal assertions. This opportunity is given to for and against essay writers, that is why students like it;
•    Personal narrative is the simplest paper to write. You do not have to care much about the formal language, since you just tell about your personal experience.

Inspite of having both favorite and odious essay types, students have to accomplish them.

Essay about Our Daily Freedom

admin June 2nd, 2008

During the academic year students accomplish a great variety of different essay types. The most commonly assigned essay types are opinion essay, for and against essay, descriptive essay and some others. The short essay given below may help you with getting any ideas of possible essay topics, no matter what essay type you have to deal with.

Freedom is a very controversial problem. On one hand, all people aim at getting it, on the other hand, they do not know how to use it correctly. The problem is that all people cannot dispose of the freedom they are given. We are all dependent on someone. If a third-class worker is given an opportunity to become a main director of a large company, he/she will not be able for such a freedom. If a slave who got used to dependence on his/her owner is given freedom, he/she will also have no idea what to do and where to go.

The fact is we all got used to dependence on someone. Young children are dependent on their parents, adults are dependent on their parents or bosses at work, even the heads of different countries are dependent on the point of view of their favorites. The reason is that we do not have the inner freedom. It is our nature and we cannot do a thing with it.

The question remains open: whether it is necessary to let your soul and mind be free or it is better to serve for somebody and remain dependent?
