This document provides guidance on writing persuasive essays, including how to structure an introduction paragraph, body paragraphs, and conclusion. The introduction should begin with a hook to engage the reader, then state the topic and your position on it in a thesis statement. Body paragraphs should each focus on one reason to support the thesis, using the PEE structure of making a Point, providing Evidence to support it, and Explaining how the evidence relates to the point. The conclusion should restate the main points without simply repeating verbatim what was already stated. Transition words are recommended to improve flow between paragraphs. Proper indentation of paragraphs is also advised.
