In order to fulfill academic purposes, students compose their understandings on particular topics in the form of an essay. There are four types of essay used while writing an essay such as persuasive, analytical, expository, and argumentative.
- Persuasive: A professional writer writes to convince the reader on their area of knowledge or point of view, arguments, and perspective. A definition is a significant role player to persuade the reader to believe in one’s statements. Quality of this essay can be determined by many factors; a point of view definition, evidence, reasoning, and domain research with target audience insight of understanding arguments.
- Analytical: This kind of essay examines a scenario and writes accordingly such as; movie review, book review, marketing campaign post-execution document, an overview of a theater or art exhibition. This analytical essay is more similar to a case study that includes an introduction, analysis, conclusion, and personal response. The personal response may direct the reader toward the positivity or criticize the subject with evidence. Moreover, personal opinion does not mean addressing the subject frequently or using slang or contractions.
- Expository: It describes an idea or issue including thesis definition, data, and conclusion while conciseness should be reflected throughout the essay. The topics of the expository essay may include political situation in a country, the role of women in particular society, the importance of nuclear atomic bomb and many other. Evaluation of available content on following topic or personal opinion is described to fulfill the requirement of this kind of essay.
- Argumentative: This proves the hypothesis true; we may relate it with a persuasive essay that also directs its readers towards the positive aspect. This differs from persuasive type in a way that it argues with the perspective of other authors instead of only providing his side of a story. Qualities of this essay are arguments, clear evidence, logical composition, and sense of sentence research of the topic and audience insights and a strong conclusion.
