Hi everyone one more time,
We are from English Club , Foreign Trade University. We would like to join this website and hope that we can share with you some thing about English and the way to learn it.
Thanks a lot!

Nowadays, many students are assigned with writing homework and writing assignment in class for only 25- 30mins. TOEFL or IELTS or SAT contest require the same : good essay but in short time. we would like to share the way how to write a good essay in a short time.

Below are brief summaries of some steps to write an essay:
-Research the topic: Take notes and immerse yourself in the words of great thinkers.

-Analyzing the arguments of the essays you're reading. Clearly define the claims, write out the reasons, the evidence. Look for weaknesses of logic, and also strength.
-Brainstorming: Ask yourself some questions and answer them. Meditate with a pen in your hand. Take walks and think and think until you come up with original insights to write about.
-Outline: Sketch your essay before straightway writing it. Map out the structure of your argument, and make sure each paragraph is unified.
-Use the proper format with 3 clear parts: Introduction, body and conclusion
-Each part includes paragraphs: Begin paragraphs with topic sentences, support assertions with evidence, and expound your ideas in the clearest, most sensible way.

Now it is time to begin writing journey. Come on. It will be fun!
