The Body of the Points in Essays

Video Transcript

"Hello! This is Peggy Charlton from Expert Village on how to write an essay. I'm talking about the body of the essay now. You need at least 3 points. Sometimes you can get by with 2, but it's really better to have 3 elaborated paragraphs. You can use transition words; secondly, thirdly. It's good to have transition between all of those paragraphs to help with the flow. I'm talking about the conclusion of your essay. The conclusion would be how you end you essay of course. It would need to focus on trying some way to restate your 3 points in a different way and have a last statement that's startling or a call to action. It's similar to the introduction, but you're just concluding. You might want to put in something really interesting about the person that you haven't put in if you're writing a biography or a fact paper. Something exciting and you end that whole paper and they're just going wow. That's a good way to end your paper. "
