How to describe a person precisely
Choose two qualities and support each with behaviour.
Original practice material · Draft: editorial review pending
Try it step by step
- Choose two relevant qualities rather than a long list of adjectives.
- Support each quality with something the person actually did.
- Explain how their behaviour affected you.
Example to adapt
- My tutor was patient. She let me finish my explanation before offering a suggestion.
Self-check
- Did I answer the actual question?
- Did I include a reason, detail or example where appropriate?
- What one thing will I try differently next time?
