Task 9. A) Study the information on how to write an autobiography.

Employers can ask you to write your autobiography, which is a written account of the series of events that make up your life. A short autobiography gives the basic facts, i.e. date and place of birth, family information, lifetime accomplishments, major events of life. A longer autobiography includes that basic information, of course, with a lot more detail, but it also tells a good story. It this case, consider such questions as:

- Was there anything in your childhood that shaped your personality?

- Was there a personality trait that drove you to succeed or impeded your progress?

- What adjectives would you use to describe yourself?

- What were some turning points in your life? etc.

B) Use the following tips and write your short autobiography.

Ø Include introduction and basic personal information in the first paragraph.

Ø Use 1st person pronouns (I, me, my, myself).

Ø Write in the past tense.

Ø Put paragraphs in chronological order, one subject per paragraph.

Ø Link your paragraphs with temporal connectives, e.g. “next”, “after that”, “later”, etc.

Ø Give a summary in the last paragraph and bring the reader up to date.

Ø Proofread and check for errors.
