From the above it shows that a clear structure helps understanding the message of an
article. Your summary should therefore be clearly structured as well. Thus pay attention
to the following aspects when writing your summary: Layout: a title and divide your
summary intovarious paragraphs (without a title the reader is lost at the very first
minute!);

Introduction; should indicate the general theme/thesis statement of the
summary;
Include all of the main ideas, state facts in general terms and use different
paragraphs to describe the main ideas separately
Dont include too many details; leave out examples; No need to mention peoples
names;
Use your own words, paraphrase sentences from the original text, however,
maintain the original meaning Use the KISS Strategy!!!! (Keep it short and
simple) Use transition and linking words and phrases
Use the proper personal pronouns to avoid repetition (it, they, he, she)
Use the right tenses:
The school was founded by .. (*has been founded)
In 1951 they started the . (*have started)
