Nothing to esSAY?

I was able to finish my first essay of the semester, as our subject requires us to write an essay, with at least 500 words, every meeting. Well, I’m not really surprised about the given task, because the course requires us to, and our degree, expects us not just be familiarize, but be experts in writing essays. I have a lot of idea in my mind, but the weird thing here is that I’m still having difficulties in writing my piece, because I couldn’t control the other things that are running in my head at the moment, but I’m still positive that I can go on with this one.

Speaking of difficulties, the topic here is the difficulties that students like me, are facing, in writing essays, and I knew some very well, since I am experiencing one. First, the choice of words and the grammar, my consistency in speaking and writing the English language is not that high, I consider myself in the average level, and I believe that it’s very important to be consistent in the language, since the readers must understand every word that they read in an essay. That is the main problem that some Filipinos are encountering, they find it difficult to write an essay in English language, that’s why there are a lot who doesn’t have any interest in writing. Secondly, I agree to the article about essay writing, in what I have understood, the article said that the “students lacks in clear guidance in the rules of the games in academic writing”, meaning that students are having a hard time in composing essays because some of them are not really taught of the proper forms and even styles in writing a presentable and meaningful essay.
Another difficulties is the lack in concentration, in reality, I think it’s impossible for a certain person to have a clear and peace in his mind, because there are distractions that are hard to avoid, like problems, and every single person in this earth do have one, and the more you think of solutions, the more you become distracted, especially on students, there are a lot of things are running thru them, and mostly are connected with their studies, but don’t get me wrong, I believe that that are some who can stay on their focus. It’s important in a writer to have focus, because having a clear mind helps in having many different thoughts and ideas about a certain topic.

Indeed, most students do have many reasons why they are having hard time in composing a piece, some of them are just forced to write an essay because it’s part of their requirement in schools, and there are a little number of students (I presume), who are writing because it is a part of their system, their hobbies. As a student, I’m looking for other ways to helped me out from these difficulties.
