Hello everyone,😊 Here’s an essay a wrote for the writing task attached to this post. Thank you very much in advance for your corrections and feedback đŸ™đŸ™‡đŸ»â€â™€ïž đŸ”¶Factors which lead to success đŸ”¶ Nowadays we live in a society where everyone wants to be successful, but what does it take for us to reach our full potential ? First of all, having a winning attitude is fundamental to achieving success. Therefore it’s a high necessity to cultivate self-confidence, as well as a deep trust in ourselves. Indeed this is what will allow us to push our boundaries, and go beyond them. In general, it’s also crucial to set the bar high, because even if we don’t reach it, in the end we will have achieved more than if we had set it lower. Furthermore, if you trust in your capabilities, it’s more likely that other people will do as well. For instance, this can be really useful for a job interview. Although not only ambition is part of a good attitude, but also truthfulness and generosity. Secondly, grades are also important for achieving a successful career, because it shows employers that you are capable of learning, have perseverance and the knowledge required for the job. And in most jobs, it is certainly required to have a diploma, and arguably good qualifications are proof that you have a bright mind. However it’s mostly important to have practical and soft skills, such as working well in teams and collaborating. To sum up, I would outline that the most important factor for success is having a good attitude. Clearly because a person can have excellent grades, but also be very shy and lack confidence, and therefore not apply for the job of their dreams.

Epa Sachie. You write really well. You could say, "It's of high necessity," or "there is (hay) a high necessity", but it sounds more natural "really necessary". "will do SO," so - así, pero es como decir "will do" - harån... harån ¿qué? "Will do so" - harån lo mismo. In general we try not to start a sentence with "And" - it's a connector. "I would outline" is basically a repetition of "To sum up". Apart from that, I like your structure, which is super important in written exams at this level. You kept you word count perfectly within the limit. I liked your examples for soft skills - examples are good for explaining your argument and it avoids vague comments. Muy bien hecho. Saludos, Simón.

Wow this is a brilliant piece of writing! You did a superb job ! Note the minor tweaks here and there as well as the use of “of” when we say “high necessity.” Other than that you’re Golden :) If you found my tips helpful then feel free to message me so we can chat about how we can improve our English together ! Looking forward to hearing from you and keep practicing :)
