Describing PeopleThe composition should be divided in three parts:Introduction:You briefly set the scene giving general
information
about the person,saying
how,
 
when 
, or
where 
you first saw, met or were introduced to that person.
Eg: Iñaki is my best friend. We were introduced by a mutual friend at “The Donosti” a few years ago as I needed someone to talk in English, and he was a teacher. We got on well immediately and we have been friends ever since.
Main body:You describe physical appearance, character(personal qualities),hobbies/interest. You should write a paragraph for each topic.*To describe physical appearance, you should give details of the person's
age,height/build, facial features, hair, clothing, etc
moving from the most generalaspects to the details.
Eg: Iñaki, who is in his early-forties, is of medium height and average build, with an oval face and receding hair. He's got beautiful almond brown eyes and a charming smile. He wears casual clothes.
*To describe character (personal qualities) you can support them with
examples ormannner and mannerism (the way they speak, the gestures a particularhabit)and/or justifications.
Eg: He is very outspoken, and always says what he feels. He has an extraordinary sense of humour and really cracks me up. But what I really admire about Iñaki, is his integrity and loyalty, as he is always there whenever you need him.
*To describe hobbies/interests, lifestyle and beliefs, you should talk about theperson's habits, interests, daily routines,....
Eg: In his free time he loves reading and watching films, particularly independent ones. Iñaki also enjoys playing boarding games, and he's absolutely fantastic at “trivial”.
Conclusion:You write your
feelings
and/or
comments
.
Eg: My friend is one of the nicest people I've ever met. I really enjoy sharing things with him. It's always fun being with him, and you never feel blue. I know for sure we'll be friends forever.
