3.1. An opinion essay

General points before doing your writing:
  • Divide your essay into short paragraphs. Write an introductory paragraphone or two paragraphs for the body and a concluding one.

  • Write clear sentences. Check punctuation and spelling rules.

  • Avoid translators (sometimes it makes difficult to understand what you mean). 

  • Check your work carefully for mistakes before handing it in.

Use connectors to link your sentences: 

  • Connectors to support an ideaMoreover, Furthermore, In addition (others: and, what’s more, also).

  • Connectors to contrast an ideaHowever, One the one hand, On the other hand, Nevertheless (others: but, although, despite, in spite of).

  • Do not exceed the number of words, please.
