therefore we as teachers must create a basis and some sort of foundation in which
we can get all the students on the same page, it is vital that the students understand
the primary medium in which they will be taught most if not all their schooling life.

an effective and structured way to teach so that every learner benefits and
understands with ease.

informative language form ,since it reflects on writings
Subjective information or writing is based on personal opinions, understandings,
points of view, emotions and reasoning. It is often considered ill-suited for scenarios
like news reporting or decision making in business or politics and is seen to go hand
in hand with an expressive language form.
