Depending on your topic, you probably want to do some research. Finding out as much as you can about your topic not only allows you to better support your argument, it also allows you to write in a voice of authority. Whoever reads your essays will pick up on your sense of self-confidence while writing them, and your essays will become more convincing as a result.
The first step when working out how to write essays is to decide what your subject or theme will be. Knowing the subject of your essay enables you to focus your efforts. You can immerse yourself in finding out all there is to know about a particular topic without any chance of getting distracted. If possible, pick a subject you are interested in, because this will make writing the essay much easier. Even if you have been given a topic, try and find an angle to it that has some interest to you. Good resources for essay material are the internet, written or e-books, journals or even interviews of people versed in your chosen subject.
The biggest mistake you can make when writing an essay is not having a clear thesis statement. An essay is essentially an argument; being wishy-washy defeats the purpose. If you do not know where you stand, how can you persuade anyone else over to your side? Coming up with a thesis statement can be tough, but it helps if you choose a topic you feel strongly about. Make sure you outline exactly what it is you think, and then try and find supporting reasons of why you think that way.
