COMMON MISTAKES FROM THE ESSAYS/ARTICLES/REVIEWS:

* they're (they are, zij zijn)/their (hun, bezittelijk)/there (daar)

* your (jouw, bezittelijk)/you're (you are, jij bent/jullie zijn)

* witch (heks)/which (welke)

* "to fit clothes" --> you fit your clothes but in a store you try on clothes

* then (first this happened, then that happened)/than (bigger than)

* dont/cant --> don't / can't (you need an apostrophe!)

* gonna/wanna --> this is something you don't use in formal writing! Use "going to" or "want to"

* too (it is too expensive, we want to do that too)/to (I am going to school)

* pro's --> pros (don't add an apostrophe in plurals)

OPBOUW ESSAY:

You need a THESIS STATEMENT. For example "In my opinion online shopping is better than instore shopping". Then you write 1 paragraph about the PROS of online shopping (you can mention instore shopping but focus on online shopping) and 1 paragraph about the CONS of online shopping (again, you can mention instore shopping but focus on online shopping). 

LAST REMARK: USE COHESIVE MARKERS and MAKE SURE YOU KNOW THE STRUCTURE AND CHARACTERISTICS OF ESSAYS, REVIEWS AND ARTICLES!!!
