My name is Emma, and I want to help you with your writing.
2
Today, we are going to learn a way to organize your writing to help you with your essays,
3
with things like TOEFL, IELTS, or even university and high school essays.
4
So, what we're talking about is something called called the PEEL framework.
5
So, the first thing I want you to do is forget using AI to write your essays.
6
You can do this.
7
You can write.
8
So let me teach you about PEEL and how it can help you with your writing.
9
PEEL stands for point, example, explain, and link.
10
We're going to look at each of these parts of PEEL in more detail, and then we're going to look at some example paragraphs.
11
I can't wait.
12
I love using PEEL and I think you will too.
13
So, the P in PEEL stands for point.
14
So, what is the point of what you're writing?
15
So, we often use PEEL when we're writing paragraphs,
16
especially paragraphs where we're trying to make an argument or to give our opinion on something.
17
So, when I'm talking about point, what I'm really saying is the first sentence you state the main idea.
18
So, here's an example of how you might start off an essay.
19
So, imagine somebody asks you to write about exercise and students.
20
Your point might be, exercise is important for students because it improves both their physical and mental health.
21
Okay, so that's an example of a topic sentence, and these are just some words that can be helpful when you write,
22
when you're giving the point.
23
I think that, I think that exercise is very important for students.
24
One important idea is exercise can help students' mental or physical health.
25
In my opinion, exercise is critical for student well -being.
26
Exercise for students is important because it helps them physically and mentally.
27
So there's some different examples of how to use these types of words.
28
They're great words at the start of a paragraph, especially for IELTS, TOEFL, and high school paragraphs.
29
So, now let's look at the E in PEEL.
30
The first E in PEEL stands for example.
31
So you've already given your point, now you need to back it up with an example.
32
So give evidence or an example to prove your point.
33
So here are some great words that you can use to help you do this.
34
You can say, for example, for instance, one example is, this can be seen when,
35
so going back to our exercise point,
36
my point was that exercise is important for students' physical and mental well -being, so that's my point point.
37
For example, regular exercise can reduce stress and increase energy levels.
38
So I'm giving a real example to support my point.
39
So you give the point, then you follow it up with an example.
40
Alright, let's see what the next E in the Peel Method means.
41
The next E in PEEL, so the second E, stands for explain.
42
So the next thing you do when you're writing a paragraph is you explain your example more deeply,
43
so you go into more detail.
44
Here are some words that can be helpful for that.
45
This means that, as a result, because of this, this helps because.
46
So, going back to our example from the beginning where I mentioned exercise is important for students' physical and mental well -being,
47
and then I gave an example about how exercise can help with energy.
48
Now, I'm going to talk about that a little bit more.
49
So, as a result, students often feel more focused and perform better in class, so I'm giving more detail from the previous example.
50
And that's what you want to do.
51
So you give an example, for instance, and then you give.. more detail or more of an explanation.
52
Alright, and we will look at more examples in a moment, but let's now get to the final letter in PEELE, which is the L.
53
What does L stand for?
54
So, the L in PEELE stands for link.
55
You need to link back to the main point.
56
So, you've done your point, you've given an example, you've explained your example,
57
and now it's time to go back and link it back to the initial point.
58
So these are some great words to do that.
59
Therefore, for this reason, overall, this shows that.
60
So let's look at an example of this.
61
Going back to our original point about exercise, the very last thing I can write is,
62
therefore, exercise can help students succeed both academically and personally.
63
So, now let's look at the whole paragraph together
64
so you can see how well it flows when you use the Peel method.
65
All right, so now let's look at the whole paragraph.
66
Exercise is important for students because it improves both physical and mental health.
67
For example, regular exercise can reduce stress and increase energy level.
68
As a result, students often feel more focused and perform better in class.
69
Therefore, exercise can help students succeed both academically and personally.
70
Boom.
71
Great paragraph.
72
All right.
73
Thank you, Peel Method.
74
Way better than AI.
75
All right.
76
So now let's look at another example paragraph we can write together.
77
All right.
78
So let's practice another paragraph together.
79
I have here some sentences for a Peel paragraph, but they are not in the correct order.
80
So, I want you to find where is the P, which stands for point, where is the E,
81
which stands for example, where is the E, which stands for explain, and where is the L, which stands for link.
82
All right, so let's look at what the paragraph says, and then you can organize it in the correct way.
83
As a result, investment in public transport can improve urban life.
84
This decreases the number of private vehicles on the road and shortens travel times.
85
One major benefit of public transportation is reduced traffic congestion.
86
For example, cities such as Tokyo have efficient subway systems used by millions daily.
87
All right, so that paragraph is out of order.
88
Take a moment and try to put it in order using the Peel method.
89
So what's the point, the main idea?
90
What's the example given?
91
Where is the explanation for the example? example, so the more detail of the example.
92
And where's the link, linking it back to the main point?
93
Alright, so now let's look at how this paragraph should be organized.
94
How to make it a PEAL paragraph.
95
So what's the point, or the P?
96
The point is, one major benefit of public transportation is reduced traffic congestion.
97
So that's the main idea.
98
What about E, the example?
99
For example, cities such as Tokyo have efficient subway systems used by millions daily.
100
And that one kind of gave us a hint, the word for example.
101
Okay, what about explain?
102
So where's the analysis of this?
103
This decreases the number of private vehicles on the road and shortens travel times.
104
Okay, and now we need to go for the link.
105
What's the link?
106
The mini -conclusion, we could say.
107
As a result, investment in public transport can improve urban life.
108
So this would have been a great paragraph for things like the IELTS or the TOEFL, or just, you know, there's a lot of different tests
109
or situations where you might need to write a basic essay
110
this is a great example of a paragraph you might have in an essay.
111
All right. So, PEEL.
112
Remember that.
113
What does it stand for?
114
Point, Example, Explain, and Link.
115
Alright, so there you have it.
116
That's the PEEL framework.

Grammatica in deze video
De structuren die de spreker het meest gebruikt, met de exacte woorden uit de video:
| Structuur | In de video |
|---|---|
| Lijdende vorm be + voltooid deelwoord — het gaat om wat er gebeurt, niet om wie het doet | can be seen · is reduced · should be organized |
| Present perfect have/has + voltooid deelwoord — iets uit het verleden dat nu nog telt | you've already given · you've done |

- Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als paragraph, essay, organize.
Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
