What are the common mistakes that you always do in writing? Do you find writing is difficult? What kind of problem do you face when you start writing? What are you suggestions to overcome the problem? Discuss.
In my opinion, the most common mistake that I usually do is my introduction of the story and then continuing it to the next supporting sentence. I often don’t realize that I am adding up sentences that has no relation with the topic sentence.  Despite of this mistake that I always do, writing in English is no big deal for me. Writing in English is one thing, but writing it accordingly to the marking scheme is another. Generating ideas is the biggest problem for me, there are just so many ideas that flow and the thought gets blocked up. In the end, I have nothing to write on my paper. My suggestion for this problem is to concentrate on the major ideas and sticking it to the topic sentence. This way, the writing is done neatly with the contents stacked consistent with the topic.
