know best, the subject on which you have most information then

on the topics can be gathered from books by observation and
listening and talking to men who knows.
 Reading
In order to write an essay the student must have something to
write about so he must store his mind with ideas by reading. As
well-known essayist Bacon has said “Reading market a full
man, conference a ready man and writing an exact man.”
 Observation
But reading is not everything .As the student reads, he must
also observe .As mostly descriptive writing is one of the most
difficult forms of composition and a student cannot gain
mastery in this art if he doesn’t learn to observe what goes on
around him or to look with pleasure on Nature beauty.
 Thinking
The best method of making a student think is to arouse his
interest. He should learn to ask questions about what he has
read; disagree with the author if his views are not convincing.
He should not accept every foolish thing he sees in the print.
However he needs to be able to evaluate the thing in the light of
truth and reasoning.

It is said mostly practice makes the man perfect. Therefore,


students should write as frequently as possible for no one can
write well who does not write often. One must think before he
writes. Students must be careful in his thought and make it
point to avoid the same mistakes again and again.

STRACTURE OF AN ESSAY

 The essay is divided into paragraphs in the same manner as the
paragraph is divided into sentences. There should be unity of
design in the essay considered as a whole in its parts. The unity
only possible by limiting the easy to one subject only. The
irrelevant matter should be taken out from the main theme. If
the title is ‘the Educational Value of the Cinema’ then should
focused on it rather wondering on the Growth of Cinema.
 Coherence
The ideas expressed in the essay should be joined together
logically. In other words one should pay great attention to the
arrangement of his thoughts otherwise essay will be incoherent.
The paragraphs and thoughts both should be connected to each
other in a logical order. An essay is like a chain in which the
various paragraphs are joined together. It must not give the
impression that consists of disconnected and incoherent
paragraphs.

various parts. Good attention should be given to avoid wandering from the topic

subject of your choice. If you are given the topic, you should think about the type
of paper that you want to produce. Should it be a general overview of the subject
or a specific analysis? Once you have determined the purpose, you will need to do
some research on topics that you find. Think about your life. What is it that
interests you? Jot these subjects down.

you are passionate about. Whatever the mission of the essay, make sure that
you are interested in your topic.
