Writing an opinion essay
When you write an opinion essay, you must say what you think about a topic and
try to convince the reader of your point of view on that topic. To do that, you
should first introduce the topic and state your opinion. Then, you should give
three reasons that support your view, and finally, you should write a conclusion
where you summarise your arguments and repeat your opinion using different
words.
Plan your ideas
The first thing you need to do is decide whether you agree with the question or
statement and then make a list of two or three reasons that support your opinion,
including some facts and/or examples. Here is an example:
Top sports players are paid too much
Opinion: I disagree.
● Reason 1: Their careers are very short.
○ Fact 1: their careers usually end in their 30’s.
○ Fact 2: sometimes, they are even shorter because of injuries.
● Reason 2: They lose their privacy.
○ Fact 1: Constantly followed by journalists and fans.
○ Fact 2: Now, everyone uses their phones to take photos and publish
them.
Organise your text
An opinion essay has three parts:
● Introduction
● Arguments or reasons that support your view.
● Conclusion
Introduction. Paragraph 1
Introduce the topic and give your opinion. Say whether you agree or disagree
with the statement or question. It can be a good idea to use a question to grab
the reader’s attention. Check the two examples below:
Nowadays, top sportspeople, such as football players or basketball players, have
huge salaries, and this promotes a lot of debate. However, I don’t think they earn
too much. In my opinion, their salaries are fair.
How often have you heard a friend or a colleague complain about the excessive
salaries of professional sports players? But do they really earn too much? I don’t
think they earn too much. I truly believe their salaries are fair.
Arguments. Paragraph 2
Give the first argument to support your opinion. Include at least two facts or
examples to show that your reason makes sense. Check this example:
Firstly, Despite all the money professional sports players earn every year, they
work for only a few years – they usually retire when they are in their thirties. In
addition, many of them have to retire earlier because they get injured and have to
stop playing.
Arguments. Paragraph 3
Give more reasons and again provide examples, facts or supporting ideas. For
example:
Secondly, sports stars are celebrities, and all celebrities lose their privacy.
Journalists, paparazzi and fans follow them everywhere, and they want to get
pictures or talk to them all the time. Moreover, now anyone can take photos with
their mobile phone and publish them at any moment on their social media
accounts.
Conclusion. Paragraph 4
Summarise your ideas and repeat your opinion.
To sum up, I believe top professional sports players have the salaries they
deserve because their careers are short and because during those years, their
personal lives are affected by their popularity.

Writing an essay about a job
Use specific vocabulary
When you write an essay about a topic, such as ‘work’, you should first learn
about different words or expressions that people use to talk about that topic.
Then, you should try to use them in your essay. These are some words that are
often used to talk about someone’s job:
You can make a list of some of these words and then use them in your text:
● work as a
● work in/for
● work part time/ full time
● earn (not much/ quite a lot/ a lot of money)
● salary
● work ___ hours a day
● work from to ___
● be responsible for
Work vs job
Job
A job is a profession or occupation; it’s the activity that a person does to earn
money. Examples of jobs are teacher, nurse, doctor, taxi driver, office clerk,
construction worker, graphic designer, police officer, etc.
You can have a temporary job, a permanent job, a part-time job or a full-time
job. When you don’t have a job, you are unemployed. When you are
unemployed, you may apply for a job. If the job interview goes well, you may
get the job.
A job is also a particular task or something that you have to do:
● I need to do a few jobs at home. I need to cut the grass, paint the fence
and fix a window.
● ‘Why didn’t you make the copies I needed?’ ‘Because that’s not my job.
Making copies is Richard’s job.’
Job is a COUNTABLE noun. This means that we can say ‘jobs’ (in the plural),
and we can say ‘a job‘.
● He’s had many different jobs. (NOT many different works)
● This is a difficult job. (NOT a difficult work)
Work
The word work is often a verb:
● Where do you work?
● She works in a hospital.
Work can also be an UNCOUNTABLE noun. So we cannot say ‘a work‘ or use
the plural form ‘works‘.
We use the noun work to talk about the effort or activities that we do when we
are doing a/our job.
● I have a lot of work to do.
● What time do you start and finish work?
● This is very hard work.
Work may also mean the place where people do their job.
● How do you go to work?
● I have lunch at work.
