INTRODUCTION

One of the most difficult aspect of writing an essay is to make up your mind from where to begin; Introduction. You
can use any of the following 6 lines wisely, to begin your essay and fill in the blank with an Overview of your Essay
Topic. Also do remember to give your view point before you finish your Introduction which would clearly state
whether you Completely Agree or Completely Disagree or Partially Agree or Partially Disagree. This provides a Clarity Of
Thought to the Reader and he/she is prepared for what’s coming next. Anyways, you can use any of the following
lines;

1. This truth is universally acknowledged that……

2. There is no doubt about the fact that…..
3. It is rightly said that….
4. This fact cannot be denied that…..
5. There is a lengthy and ongoing debate on whether ……. Or ……. And I believe that …..
6. (Write a short sentence about the topic). It is quite a debatable issue whether………or….would/could/will/should…..and I
believe that...

BODY PARAGRAPH 1

Gathering reasons? What do I Write now? Before you begin your essay, do spend some time to think about the topic
and write down some bullet points on the reasons relevant to your task.

The body paragraph must be Cohesive & Coherent, indicating that it should contain
a logical flow reasons justified with facts or examples (not mandatory). This
paragraph must only contain one side of your view point, i.e, “Why you Agree or
Disagree?” Examples may or may not be included but at least 2-3 relevant reasons
must be written. And remember to carry forward sentences with a proper use of
Connectors. Anyways, you can use any of the following lines to frame a body
paragraph 1 of your essay,

1. To justify my view point, I would like to say that….. besides this…. Apart from this….At the same time…..Above all
2. To strengthen my view point, I would like to cite an example…. (giving example)
3. It is exemplary from the fact that…(giving example)
4. This could be exemplified from the fact that…(giving example)
5. To further strengthen my opinion, I would like to make an impact on the fact that….(giving example)
6. On one hand/ On one side, I would like to infect upon the fact that………

BODY PARAGRAPH 2

This paragraph is similar to the Body Paragraph 1 in terms of Sentence Framing, Cohesiveness & Coherence. The only
difference is that it must contain reasons opposing the paragraph above, i. e, Body Paragraph 1 with examples (not
mandatory). Anyways, you can use any of the following lines to frame a body paragraph 2 of your essay,

1. However, some people think that…

2. Alternatively, others think in variance to this that….
3. On the other hand/on the flip side…

CONCLUSION

The Conclusion of the essay is most important as it is the Final Impression the reader is getting of you before he/she
finishes reading what you have written. To write a perfect conclusion, try finishing it in a Single Sentence( with 1 full
stop) briefing a small reason from both your body paragraphs and if possible, providing a solution/ modification to
the questionable aspect ( not mandatory).

(Explain in short, both the views and give small reasons for/against both aspects in conclusion)

1. Keeping in view the above, I would like to conclude that…

2. Conclusively, I would like to say that…
3. As it is clear from the above discussion that there are no easy answers to this question, so I tend to believe that…
4. Finally, to summarize my views, I would like to conclude by saying that….
5. In crux, as every coin has two sides, so we cannot support one and go against either. Completely in lieu of that, I would like
to say that…( the advantages overlap the disadvantages because)
