Do you want to write better essays?
To write a good essay, you need to plan. Taking some time to work out your argument and what evidence you are going to use to back it up will make the whole writing process easier. Then, flesh out your plan in an essay outline so that you know what you're going to write at every stage.
But how do you know what should be in your outline? Or what makes a strong argument? Or, when you start to write, how do you make sure your writing stands out to your teacher?
