Travelling by sea is going to be a new adventure and this

Dublin attractions. It will be really nice. He is celebrating
St. Patrick's Day on Thursday. When his English gets a bit
better, he will read James Joyce in English.

Write a factual essay
A factual essay is actually one of the most simple and uncomplicated tasks
you will ever encounter. Its purpose is simply to describe or explain a
specific topic using factual information
You do not have to develop an argument; you only have to understand your
topic and present it in a logical, rational and coherent manner.
Usually, a factual essay is structured in three or four paragraphs.
♦ The first is the introduction, which introduces the topic.
♦ The second paragraph develops different points to support the thesis
and provides factual examples and information.
♦ The third and final paragraph is the conclusion, which ties the body
paragraphs together and sums up the essay. Since the content is factual, you
will need to write in the third person only. This means no "I" or "you" in the
essay
