What is the correct structure of an essay?
The correct structure of an essay should contain three parts: an introduction, the main
body, and the conclusion. In the introduction, you should provide a statement about
the purpose of the essay (i.e. what is this essay about, why is ethics important, what
are you going to say in the main body of the essay). In the main body of the essay, you
are expected to address each of the questions in a separate paragraph. The first
sentence of each paragraph should be the topic sentence which outlines the central
idea to be developed in the paragraph. The remainder of the paragraph should provide
information and evidence that help explain your position set out in your topic
sentence. The last part of the essay is the conclusion. An effective conclusion should
restate the purpose of the essay, remind readers what has been discussed in the main
body of the essay and make your final conclusion.
