Identifying the Main Idea!

Identifying the main idea can be a little difficult for many people, especially if the person dont like to read books, novels, magazines or any time of reading, it is very hard and eventually you will struggle looking for the main idea, I remember when I use to have homework, to read a Chapter and find the main idea, it was difficult for me, well the truth is that reading is no my strenght. But we need to understand that the main idea is not simply what the text is about, is more than that, is what the author wants readers to understand and know what is important in the text. Always remember identify the important information, group the important information and combine the groups to get the main idea.
