IGCSE students writing English Language Paper 2 (0500) are required to make a choice between a piece
of narrative or descriptive writing. Even if a student has decided to attempt a narrative, he needs to
work on descriptive writing because he has to use descriptions in a narrative. However, it is important
to note that narratives are very different from descriptives in form, feature and tone.
Students should describe people, places, and objects in such a way that the reader or examiner is able
to visualize them and a clear image is created in his mind.
