Description
Many students find essay writing challenging. They perhaps feel that they do not have sufficient content, or they lack the appropriate vocabulary to convey their thoughts, or they do not know how to structure their ideas in a coherent manner. They may even think that they have no natural talent for writing. Therefore, essay writing becomes an uphill chore which few students want to tackle.
However, very few people are naturally gifted writers. Most people particularly professional writers - work on their writing the same way a musician works on practicing their scales and an athlete works on refining their techniques. Dedicated, focused and purposeful practice will help, and that is what this book aims to provide for students.
The first part of the book will focus on developing essay writing skills. These include notes on essay writing as well as different short exercises to develop skills such as question analysing, brainstorming, structuring, and amplifying.
The second part of the book will provide 20 sample responses to essay questions. Each response is a step-by-step demonstration of how to analyse, plan, and write an essay without a time limit
