It has been 2 months since school started here. And for sure some of you have been busy for your kid’s first examination. We will be having ours next week and yes, it will be going to be a busy week. Aside from that, there are more and more projects coming, I had to assist my first born in doing his. Although they haven’t started studying about essays and composition, I thought of writing about essay guide, just for future preference. To start with, Ia m no good on making an essay, in fact, I dreaded that moment when I was in college. There is something about that word that makes me scared. Yeah, I never enjoyed writing then, that is why, I want my kids to know about it even before it intimidates them.
There are different Essay Types based on form and style. Narrative essay is the most common type. In this essay type, the author or the writer talks about their experience. Although the author write about personal experience, this essay is not an easy task. The author should present a very entertaining and interesting essay. This is done so that the readers will be engrossed and will not get bored reading the essay. It would be better to read first on some tips on how to write narrative type essays. Exploratory Essay is another essay type and this one is a very interesting type of essay. In this type, the author ask some questions in the first part of the essay. And through that essay, the writer gives answers but not the definite one.
Another essay type is Analytical, this is done by writing an essay that deal more on facts. It uses descriptive language. Other than that, the writer also presents cause and effect on the essay body. Argumentative on the other hand is a type of essay that deals with reasons. The author presents an argument and a counter argument and then it counters the counter argument. This type of essay is supported with facts, statistics and testimonies.
I am not sure yet what type of essay my kids will encounter in the future. It may not be as difficult as I perceived it but at least I am ready (in a way) to deal with it and to help them with it. That’s the best thing I can give to them, my support and my preparedness.
