📝 How to Write a Paragraph — The PEEL Method
Every essay, every formal email, every job application I’ve written follows one structure. PEEL. Let me show you.
📖 PEEL — The Paragraph Formula
P — Point: Your main idea, one clear sentence.
Learning a second language as an adult is challenging but rewarding.
E — Evidence: A fact, example, or data to support it.
Research suggests adult learners can reach B2 level in under two years with consistent practice.
E — Explain: How does the evidence support your point?
This shows that age alone does not prevent language acquisition.
L — Link: Connect to the next paragraph or reinforce the main idea.
Therefore, it is never too late to begin learning a new language.
📄 My Example Paragraph
Working in hospitality develops crucial communication skills. [P] During my time at Merivale in Sydney, I managed teams of up to fifteen people across three languages simultaneously. [E] This forced rapid development of professional communication in high-pressure contexts. [E] As a result, hospitality experience offers English learners an unmatched real-world laboratory. [L]

What does the second E (Explain) do?
Where should the main point of a paragraph appear?
