The perfect essay? It sounds promising, but is it really possible? The author of this article will now contradict the title that he came up with himself, but by definition it is impossible to write such an essay. Since the word “essai" itself translates from French as "experience, trial, attempt, essay, sketch”. Thus, the etymology of the word itself denies anything brought to perfection. But it is certainly possible to write a high-quality and interesting work that will be highly appreciated by the teacher. So, let's analyze what kind of work this is and what skills a student should show when writing.
An essay is a student's work, a kind of prose essay that is written in a free form, and, in fact, is the author's statement on a given topic.
In this paper, it is rather not the student's knowledge that is being tested, but his ability to prove his point of view in a reasoned manner, as well as to formulate thoughts and build them consistently and logically. An essay is one of the most creative tasks given at a university.
Despite its apparent simplicity, it gives good results:
1. The student develops creative thinking
2. The skill of expressing one's point of view concisely and argumentatively is also developing
3. Analytical thinking is formed
If we talk about the content side of the essay, it is better to adhere to the following 5 principles when writing:
1. The essay expresses, first of all, the author's point of view, which means that it has a subjective character. Therefore, you should not try to generalize someone else's opinion on this issue, it is better to express your own and compare it with existing hypotheses or axioms.
2. Despite the fact that your opinion is primarily interesting in the essay, however, it should be remembered that you are considering a certain topic, which means that it should be disclosed in the content of the essay. To check whether you are acting in the right direction, it is better to answer the following questions:
- has the topic/question been disclosed?
- how accurately are the thoughts stated?
- how correctly and competently is the essay written?
