  8. More Examples • We can use Montel’s advice for problems out of school or in school problems and we can use his writing techniques when we need to right a paper or an essay/report on the computer. We can recognize the way he sees things in his point of view and put then into our own words.

  9. Montel Williams • I think that Montel realizes peoples mistakes and there problems because of the show he had. He would have people come in and work out there problems no matter what they were and knowing how certain people work I think helps him write in a certain way. I think he understands people in a way that no one else can because he has worked with people so long. Now that he had his own show, he has advice for everyone that he can just right down and put in books for anyone and everyone around the world to see.
