What to Focus On

  • An essay is a composition on a particular subject.
  • It has more than one paragraph.
  • It should remain focused on one main idea.
  • Brainstorming helps generate ideas quickly.
  • Ideas can be written down in the order in which they occur.
  • Unnecessary points should be removed after brainstorming.
  • Brainstorming helps collect raw ideas.
  • Idea expansion turns points into complete sentences.
  • Logical arrangement is necessary after collection of ideas.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

An essay is just a long paragraph on a topic.

Unity means every paragraph should contain many different ideas so the essay looks rich.

Coherence only means writing neatly and using correct grammar.
