Comparison Of Nick Tingle And Paulo Freile

Sometimes keeping it simple is the best way. Both Nick Tingle and Paulo Freire expressed their opinions why education has vexed them in different ways and both use a significant amount of Pathos to drive their arguments. Freire and Tingle use very different angles to their argument; however, they are similar in the way they both appeal to logos,ethos and pathos to convince a similar argument. Paulo Freire’s foundation of his article is based on his past and the stories he portrays through writing using pathos. Freire constantly intertwines reading and his own life, “ I see myself then in the average Recife house where I was born, encircled by trees.”, by showing examples of his life being relived through reading, it provides insight to the

Freire, consistently uses elegant choice of words to catch the reader 's attention, “The song of the birds - tanger, flycatcher, thrush; in the dance of boughs blown by the strong winds”, the use of language is vivid and well placed. Furthermore, Tingle often times uses words and phrases he could have made simpler, “ I labored to assert the truth of my relation to the new language”, Tingle constantly uses strange adjectives that make the reading so much more difficult than it should, without adding any real value. Making strange diction preferences in Tingle’s article making the reading more confusing and overall lowers the effectiveness. Freire enjoys repeating his arguments, in an attempt to make the reader fully understand his points, “Reading the world always precedes reading the word, and reading the word implies continually reading the world.”, Freire constantly relates the world with reading, and uses a unique sentence style to regularly repeat this point. However, just like Tingle’s choice of diction, it can be confusing and irritating to constantly reread that point throughout Freire’s article. Freire has a different approach to diction with having smoother adjectives and sentences, rather than Tingle’s jargon. Both Freire and Tingle have pros and cons to their diction choices; although, Freire asserts his point superior

Logos is apparent in Tingle’s argument when he cites the sources from Newkirk and Welch along with Bernstein and others, “Bernstein 's description of middle-class speech patterns, parallels the qualities that Bartholomae”, Tingle’s backbone of his article is by citing other sources that agree with his own point to add credibility to his own. Freire does not cite any sources; however, instead he appeals to logos by using metaphors and other figurative language, “There was no better environment for ghostly pranks than that one”, using ghostly pranks as one of the many metaphors in his argument. Freire, also contributes to some form of ethos due to his personal branding on the amount of personal stories in his argument. Most of freire’s argument can not be recreated due to the personal connection that is written within his article. Between logos and ethos, Freire and Tingle have a much different style and writing preference that defines these
