13. Essay


       This essay was really different from others. It was, actually, more difficult to write it, but it is a good idea that this essay is the fourth. We have already got necessary practice which helps to follow a proper structure. So, as for my essay, I think that it is well-organized and has a well- developed structure. For instance, it has an interesting statistic as attention getter, an appropriate thesis statement, topic sentences, connected with thesis statement, concluding sentences and a conclusion that summarizes all arguments. So, structure is the best thing about my essay.

       At the same time, in this essay we should have developed our argument in a special way. It was very challenging and  got a lot of time because I wanted to write an interesting essay. That is why, in my view, argumentation is a weakness in my essay. Although I wrote essay about some economic topic, I had to read a lot of new articles and some new chapters in books. I think that my arguments and sources are convincing, up- to- date and coherent. But I am not sure, that I have written them in a proper way. There are so many requirements for sources that I am afraid that I have missed something. To improve this part of my essay I should have a consultation with David or in  the writing center. 

         Moreover, skills in writing argumentative essay are really important,  and they are getting only when you have enough practice. So, it will be useful to write several argumentative essays during semester.
