The essay is the most simplest amongt h e s l e w o f a c a d e m i c w r i t i n gassignments. An essay is essentially apiece of writing intended to convey apos i t ion or an a rgument about aparticular topic while expounding suchth rough a se r i es o f d i s cuss i on s .

In terms of structure, a typical essay iscomposed of three main partstheintroduction, body, and conclusion.

The introduction is the part that presents the topic and the thesis statement or your main argument.On the other hand, the main body part constitutes three paragraphs, each presenting unique discussionrelated to the topic and thesis statement. Each paragraph intends to prove the validity of the thesisstatement. Meanwhile, the conclusion restates the thesis and synthesizes all the discussions in the mainbody.

The most common structure of an essay is the so-called five-paragraph essay. The introduction partconstitutes the first paragraph, the body includes the three discussion paragraphs, while the conclusionpart makes up the last paragraph.

There are different types of essay that may or may not follow the usual five-paragraph structuredepending on the required length or scope of the topic and discussion.

An essay for literature class for example may follow a five-paragraph structure but it remains differentbecause it involves thorough analysis of a literary work or reading material. Typically, this essay may be aresponse to a material, a reflection, or an answer to a specific question related to the reading.

Meanwhile, an expository essay is another type of a specialized essay. Depending on length, this papercan follow the same five-paragraph structure but it can also be lengthier depending on the requirements.Remember that an expository essay requires a writer to investigate an idea, provide and evaluateevidence, expound on the idea, and create an argument concerning an idea. Within this type of writing,there are also sub-types to include comparison and contrast, example, analysis, and cause and effect

essay among others.

Another specialized essay is the persuasiveor argumentative and position papers.Accordingly, this essay centers on the needfor a writer to prove a point with a goal toinfluence the opinion of the reader andclarify an issue. This type of academic paperdemonstrates logic and reason. Rememberthat the format of a position paper may varyaccording to requirements.

A rhetorical analysis may be regarded as an essay although most of the time, it does not follow theusual rigid five-paragraph structure. Instead, a rhetorical analysis reviews a variety of communicationmaterials to include news reports, editorials and opinions, research papers and journals, television shows,films, documentaries, and print and television commercials. This review involves exploring, discussing,and evaluating the way the material has employed the so-called three rhetorical approaches known aslogos, pathos, and ethos. Remember that the logos approach pertains to the use of logic in order toappeal to the audience. On the other hand, pathos is involved with the use of an affective or emotionalappeal. Ethos meanwhile is an approach that scrutinizes the authority and credibility of the author orproducer of the material.
