VI. ESSAY (250 words) SAPP Academy Tel: 0166 7703 493
No. 20, 198 alley, Xa Dan street, Ha Noi Sapp.edu.vn
Parents often give children everything they ask for and do what they like. Is it good for
children? What are the consequences when they grow up?
- An essay needs to have a good structure, including Introduction, Discussion (2-3
paragraphs) and Conclusion.
- In the Discussion part, candidates need to provide their ideas and examples/evidences
in each graph. Each idea is corresponding to a paragraph. For example:
 The first reason is that children could depend on their parents instead of being
independent when they grow up. Subsequently, it could affect their moral in
studying and working. In particular, children know their parents could support the
tuition fee so that they would probably not focus on the learning process... (this
example is extremely effortless that equivalent to 6.0 IELTS)
- Additionally, candidates should use academic words and synonyms (consequences =
repercussions)
