I'm trying to see how much I can learn about summary as I am new to doing English

Women are being disadvantage in the labour market due to limited access of well paid jobs, and are considered suitable for, and are placed into more feminine works.females are less than half the total enrollment in technical and educational institutions while girls are hindering their future of employment by taking on less technical and are sticking to more feminine courses.In least developed countries education for disadvantage girls are limited due to requirements and the cost of courses.However programs are put into place by none-governmental organizations but monitoring of the impact of training on trainees are unmanageable

Hi ellandi,

This is a good summary. Congratulaions on a first effort! Your summary is well within the word limit so you are fine. You were allowed 120 words and your summary took up 96 words. That is very, very good.

There is something I would encourage you to keep an eye on in your writing. It is the tense of your verbs. For example, if I had to change the first sentence of your summary, instead of,
__________________________________

Women are being disadvantage in the labour market due to limited access of well paid jobs, and are considered suitable for, and are placed into more feminine works.

I would write,
_______________________________________________

Women are being disadvantaged in the labour market due to limited access of to well paid paying jobs, and they are considered suitable for, and are placed into more feminine works jobs.

________________________________________________

Apart from this, you absolutely got the message of the passage and you translated it into your own words very well.

I would give this summary a grade 1.
