About this subject
Essay writing asks you to do several hard things at once: understand the question, find something worth saying about it, organise your points into an argument and express it in clear sentences. Students often know more than their essays show, because the structure or the language lets them down. Teachers across subjects, from history to biology, grade essays, so improving your writing tends to lift your results well beyond a single course. Writing well is a craft, and like any craft it improves fastest with honest feedback on your own work.
The books here are short guides to writing clearly: cutting needless words, choosing the active voice, building paragraphs around one idea and revising your own drafts with a critical eye. They are classics because their advice still holds for school essays, reports and emails. A tutor can read your actual drafts, show you what a strong answer to your kind of question looks like and help you plan essays under the time pressure of an exam.
