That is the best essay I have ever read. It is so important to know how to criticize. Sometimes we want to help someone by telling them they have done something wrong, in order to help them, but we do not know how to do so, and actually make the situation even worse!!!!! I totally agree that when we criticize, we need to do it without letting our ego interfere; it is the best way to help that person. Maybe we can think what we would do, if we were in that person’s shoes!!!!

I am sure that you are an accommodating person, because your essay is very constructive!
