Lerntipps When writing an essay or preparing a presentation you must plan. First jot down all the relevant information about the topic – at least 10 points (see table on school system and the AS notes). Plan an introduction, a main section and a conclusion Einleitung Hauptteil Schluss
Lerntipps The introduction should give some idea of what you are going to discuss, some background and some personal interest. The main part should give information in a logical order and compare with Britain after each point. The conclusion must gather together all the pieces and you must give your own opinion at the end having weighed up the pros and cons. Note the phrases, vocabulary and structures you wish to include. Write the essay sticking to the plan and if you think of something relevant while writing DO NOT TACK IT ONTO THE END but try to include it in the right place. Check for errors with several readings.
