A FEW “NEVERS “in Essay Writing
You may not believe it, but writing a concise and interesting essay is
quite easy. This challenging and time-consuming task can be turned into a sheer
pleasure.
The only thing you have to do is to remember a few potential pitfalls
to avoid:
- Never write an essay, in
which the content does not reflect and develop the real topic.
Many students think that if they
write a text that has something to do with the words in the topic, it will be
enough for successful completion of the task. Unfortunately, it is not true.
Before you start writing, read the question carefully, single out the key words
and elaborate the idea of what you should write.
- Never write an essay without
an introduction.
Remember that this part is actually
your presentation of the topic, which provides the background for the rest of
the essay. If you fail to write an interesting introduction, you will also fail
to explain what you are going to write about.
- Never write an essay without
a thesis.
A thesis statement expresses the key
idea of the essay, the writer’s idea of the topic. It must give the reader a
certain hint about the way the topic is going to be developed. However, it is
not simply a declaration of the author’s thoughts, but a statement, which will
invite the reader to think about the topic together with the author. Don’t
forget to further support your thesis with proper evidence.
- Never write a thesis
statement that you will fail to develop due to the lack of ideas.
When planning your essay, think
carefully if you will be able to support your thesis with enough ideas. If you
are not sure, drop it and try to formulate another one, as otherwise, it will
not sound convincing.
- Never use ideas, which you
cannot prove with examples.
Any idea needs its clarification and
proof, which can result from an appropriate example. If you do not give the
examples, your essay will provide an impression of a superficial collection of
niceties without any depth of thought.
- Never write an essay without
a conclusion.
Conclusion is essential, it is both a
summary and a generalization which restates your thesis, and thus, laying
additional emphasis on what has been written.
These points represent the most common mistakes students tend to make in
terms of content while doing academic writing. Certainly, avoiding them
requires certain practice. However, if you bear in mind this list, you will
soon find out that writing an essay has become much easier for you.
