HSC Essay Skills

Any questions that asks you to discuss, compare, give reasons, or examine is asking you to use impersonal or formal language. “I” should be avoided if possible.

Formal Writing

Formal writing is writing that you would use in a formal context e.g. letter writing, business, formal invitations, legal contracts, essay writing, newspaper writing. In essays you should try to use formal language as much as possible and avoid colloquialism and slang e.g. “Babe is an incredibly excellent movie” is better written as “Babe is a fine film, well written and imaginatively directed”.

Brainstorming

  • Write your essay topic on a spare sheet of paper.
  • Write down everything you can think of regarding the topic.
  • You might use circles or diagrams to mind map your ideas.
  • Select relevant points.
  • Identify ideas that you can link together.
  • Work out the order in which you are going to write about your ideas.
  • Link your points together in a coherent argument.

  • Comments are closed.
