I. General structure
The constituent elements of an Essay include the introduction, the body and the conclusion, and the paragraphs need to be logically related. The introduction usually consists of two parts: an intriguing paragraph starter, or hook, and a background description of the topic. The main body consists of supporting paragraphs, each of which first establishes a topic sentence, then introduces and applies valid evidence to support it, and should add logical links between the arguments and the topic when appropriate. The conclusion should briefly review and summarise the previous issues.
