 |  
							| Hello friends, I hope you are doing well here at ESLprintables. This time I bother you to ask for help. See, I am writing an essay on the following rubric "teaching teenagers is not an easy job" Do you agree?  But I feel like there �s something missing to my introduction to make it more catching... Your suggestions are welcomed... here goes what I have so far.   
During my years as a teacher-to-be, I have been told that adolescence is the most difficult period in the lifetime of a human being, a period of great changes as regards physical and psychological developments. Therefore, though I do not claim to be an expert, it seems to me that there is every reason to believe that teaching teenagers is not an easy job.   Thanks In advance!   |  10 Jun 2009

							| Hi, 
 How formal does the essay need to be?  You may want to begin with a question like the following:
 
 Where else is it possible to observe teenagers be pensive, grumpy, argumentative, repentant, and loving all in ninety minutes? The answer is a classroom. of course.
 
 This just could be your "hook" for your reader. I would also wrte " a period of great change in regard to..."
 
 I hope this helps.
 
 Carla
