How To Write An Essay Note
Pick a topic
After getting an overview of the essay, you will be in a better position to choose a more relevant topic. Begin by
brainstorming, sit down, be calm and start a free flow of thoughts and jot down ideas. Narrow your focus and choose
an interesting topic depending on the type of essay and purpose so you can create a top notch essay. If you find it
hard to come up with an essay topic, ask your teacher for assistance and you will get a topic which you will be
required to defend with relevant sources.
Create an outline
Before you begin your writing, create your essay outline. Jot your topic in the middle of your page, draw lines
branching from the topic and write main ideas at the end of each line. From the main ideas at the end of the lines
draw more lines and include your thoughts.
Another option is to use a simple outline. Write your topic at the top of your page, separate your essay into
introduction, body, and conclusion. For a five paragraph essay, have an introduction, at least three main ideas, and a
conclusion. Leave spaces under each idea to enable you to list smaller ideas supporting the main idea. The ‘skeleton’
will enable you to write a more organized essay.
Sample outline:
Introduction paragraph
First sentence
Thesis statement
Body paragraph
Give statistics
Information on the subject
Research on the topic
Relevant data if any
Conclusion paragraph
Restate your thesis statement
Support arguments
write a call to action
