TABLE (STATISTIC)
Analysis
Introduction + Overview
● Paraphrase the overall essay topic.
● Write a clear overview summarising the differences and the overall trend.

European nations in 2011.
2. Overall, Polish individuals were most likely to emigrate, followed by Italians, Germans, the
English and the Spanish more distantly.
3. The preferred country for most nationalities to reside in was Germany with the exception of the
British and Germans who lived in Spain and Britain respectively.
Body Paragraphs

● Compare between each sentence.
● Use parentheses to mention everything.
1. In terms of the totals, 1,168,000 Polish residents reside abroad, notably higher than the figure
for Italians (863,670), Germans (539,000), British (524,760), and especially Spanish (202,170).
2. Polish immigrants were most likely to live in Great Britain and Germany (near 500,000 in each
nation), a trend mirroring the Spanish (close to 100,000 in the UK and Germany). 3. Notably few
individuals from all nations opted to live in Poland with figures ranging from 170 from Spain up to
4,400 from neighboring Germany.
● Write about the final other parts of the graph – include everything!

Spain (391,000) and Germans opting for the UK at 297,000 and Spain slightly lower at 196,000
living abroad. 2. Lastly, Italians were overwhelmingly more likely to relocate to Germany with the
highest figure for immigration at 556,000 and still significant totals for Spain and the UK (188,000
and 119,000 in turn).
MIXED CHARTS
Analysis
● Paraphrase what the bar chart shows.
● Write a clear overview summarising the differences and the overall trend.
1. The pie chart and bar chart detail information concerning dance classes currently being
attended by young people in an Australian town. 2. Looking from an overall perspective, it is
readily apparent that the vast majority of classes are hosted in private studios, followed by school
halls, community halls, and, most distantly, college studios. 3. For very young children, ballet and
tap dancing are more popular, while the preferred option for older students is modern dance.
● Begin writing about the data for the first categories.
● Compare between each sentence.
1. Regarding the location of dance classes in the town, private studios account for 48% of the
total, precisely double the figure for after-school school halls (24%). 2. Community and other
halls trail this data point slightly at 18% and the least common venue is college-based studios at
just 10%.
● Write about the final other parts of the graph – include everything!
● Include all the data.
● Use parenthesis to mention everything.
1. Concerning the varieties of dance classes popular with different age demographics, ballet is
most notable with over 600 students under age 11, and only 300 students aged 11 to 16. 2. The
age disparity narrows for tap classes with 410 older students and 440 younger ones. 3. Modern
dance displays the opposite trend to ballet with far more older students (520) relative to their
younger counterparts (300).
