Teachers normally give essay writing activity to their students so that they can enhance their writing skills. Generally such activities depict the basic understanding of the students about the course material. It also gives a wider scope to the students to show their potential and knowledge. The content of the essay should persuade the teacher. Even though there’s no one-fixed technique of writing an essay, the general outline for the every essay is more or less the same. The teachers don’t like to see following five things when the students write an essay:

1. Unorganized content The teacher usually likes to read an essay which is organized into effective paragraphs. Unorganized content drifts the interest of the teacher. The content of the essay should be presented in three general paragraphs. First should be the introduction paragraph which is written with eye-catchy phrases and topic statements. It should contain brief overview of the topic and should hold sentences that gain the attention of the teacher. Second should be the body paragraph which has to be informative and persuading for the teacher. The student should try to include all the essential information but at the same time should keep it as simple as possible so that it’s easy to read and understand. The body paragraph should be in a story form and should be in a flow. This means that the information should be written in an organized manner. Three should be the conclusion which is considered as the closing paragraph of an essay. It should be comprehensive and satisfactory. The conclusion should generalize the whole theme of the essay and the students should try to convey some message through it.
