How to write a good essay
- First note 5–7 points – opening, body, ending.
- Make the opening interesting – a striking line, a question or a small incident.
- Write one paragraph per point; keep sentences short and clear.
- Use suitable proverbs and phrases (म्हणी, वाक्प्रचार) and your own experiences.
- End with a thought or message.
- Check spelling and punctuation, and keep to the word limit.
