Why is it that i lose focus when i write an essay or anything?

We Answered:

it helps if you write an outline. so you can clearly refer back to the point you are making only in that paragraph.

it helps for you to be back and check if you are only talking about what you need to be talking about in that one paragraph.

Intro
your theory/thesis and three points that support it

Body 1 - the first point that supports your thesis
a. the reason of the first point
b. the second reason of the first point.
c. the third reason of the second point.

Body 2 - the second point that supports your thesis
a. the reason for the second point.
.............and so forth.......................

What is the proper way to write a conclusion for an essay?

We Answered:

Your conclusion is very similar to your introduction. You summarize your main points, and give your final thoughts, then re-state your thesis.

Imagine your introduction is a pyramid. It starts off narrow, and gets wider, the narrower part being the thesis, the bigger parts being the main points. Your conclusion is the exact opposite - starts of wide, and gets narrow.

Can anyone help me with an idea on how i should write an essay with romeo and juliet?

We Answered:

you could say how they play more of a part in Romeo and Juliet's lives, as they like know more about them than there own parents do. You can say how they both know about the marriage and such.

In Juliet's case, she doesn't want to speak with her mother, she would rather speak to the nurse as she is the one who brought her up, i.e breast fed her, and knows basically everything about her, which is more than the mother can say, because when Lady Capulet wishes to speak with Juliet, she refuses.

On Romeo's side, he opens up to Friar Laurence, rather than his true parents. He lets him know how he is feeling and how he wants his approval on their marriage, and for him to perform the ceremony. He is not just speaking with him just because he wishes for him to marry the two of them, but its also because he sees him more as a father rigure than Montague himself.

answer my question on romeo and juliet please

How to write an analytical essay with six questions that must be answered?

We Answered:

That's an awful lot to do in one paper - you're sure you have to write on all six, not just choose one or two (I generally try to give my students a choice of questions)? This seems likely to me as the six questions don't seem to gel particularly well together for an analysis of a single text (I haven't read too many poems that contain arguments, for instance).

However, if you are sure you must answer all six, I would break my essay into 6 sections and tackle each of the questions individually. Your other option, which is a bit more sophisticated, I think, is to develop a thesis for your paper that might be analyzed in each of the six ways; each analysis supporting the thesis of the paper. However, this is more difficult to accomplish.

What level of class is this for? High School? College? A professor's expectations of an analysis are certainly different from a 10th grade English teacher's.
