It is evident that the writer would usually use a
passionate, personal or emotional tone when addressing
the readers. Take note also that writers usually use two
or more of these techniques when composing a
persuasive text to add impact to their statements, but
they should first know their audience or target readers in
order to identify the best techniques that would work.
For instance, when writing to persuade a group of
professionals, emotive language may not work as
effective as it would to a group of teenagers.

HOW TO PROCESS THE TEXT," OPINED FREDERICK PEREZ, CURRENT
PRESIDENT OF THE READING ASSOCIATION OF THE PHILIPPINES. _____________
• THE DISMAL PERFORMANCE OF THE PHILIPPINES IN THE 2018 PROGRAM FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENT
ASSESSMENT (PISA) SENDS THE MESSAGE THAT THE COUNTRY'S EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM NEEDS TO TAKE
READING INSTRUCTION SERIOUSLY, PARTICULARLY IN UPSKILLING TEACHERS AND DEVELOPING EFFECTIVE
MATERIALS FOR READING INSTRUCTIONS. __________
• THE PISA REPORT ALSO REVEALED THAT EXPENDITURE PER STUDENT IN THE COUNTRY IS 90 PERCENT LOWER
THAN THE GLOBAL AVERAGE, AND THIS LIMITED FUNDING RESULTS IN THE ABSENCE OF VIABLE TEACHING
MATERIALS. THIS HAMPERS THE ABILITY OF EACH STUDENT TO LEARN AND COMPREHEND THE MATERIALS
PRESENTED. ______________
• THE READING PROBLEM IS A NATIONAL ISSUE, SO THERE HAS TO BE AN IMMEDIATE EVALUATION OF THE
CURRICULUM. ALSO, THE GOVERNMENT MUST CONSIDER ALLOCATING MORE FUNDS TO THE EDUCATION
SECTOR TO MAKE POSSIBLE THE TRAINING OF TEACHERS, AS WELL AS THE CREATION AND EVALUATION OF
TEACHING AND LEARNING MATERIALS. ____________
• MOREOVER, THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION SHOULD DEVELOP MATERIALS THAT WOULD INTRODUCE THE
LEARNERS TO EXPOSITORY TEXTS WHICH DEAL WITH INFORMATION. FILIPINO LEARNERS PERFORMED
POORLY IN THE PISA BECAUSE THE TEST IS MOSTLY MADE UP OF EXPOSITORY TEXTS AND CALLS FOR THE
PROCESSING OF INFORMATION, AND THEY ARE NOT PREPARED FOR IT. _________________
