How To Write A Persuasive Essay
Writing essay is one of the things that I used to dislike before. For me, writing an essay was a
difficult and boring thing. However, I change my mind when I was doing the assignment,
"Persuasive Essay". This essay is my first English essay, and it was a quite challenging task for me.
In this assignment , I learned a lot. For example, to use the transition words to connect each
paragraph. Also, to use other writer's words to make my idea be more powerful. Thus, this
assignment improves my writing skills a lot. Before, I didn't know that I have to use the transition
words in an essay. For me, an essay is constituted by many single paragraphs. However, everything
is different when I was doing this assignment, Persuasive Essay. I noticed that every paragraph
should support theme to make an essay stronger. Also, after Ms. Weller marked this assignment, I
learned that using transition words can create a powerful link between my ideas. For example,
using the word, "in addition" , can make two paragraphs connect to each other. It also can make
readers understand the logic of an essay. Therefore, I' ve learned the writing skill which can make
each paragraph be connected from this assignment....show more content...
I really enjoyed it. As I was researching, I also could read other writer's literature. I notice that
using the quote or data can make the theme of an essay be stronger and more persuasive. For
example, I use the quote from Steven Crowder, the author of "TheTop 5 Reasons College May Be
Waste Of Time In 2015", to support my idea, going to college is unnecessary. The quote not only
can make an essay more cogent but also can make readers agree with writer's thinking. Thus, I've
learned to use the quote to make my essay to more

Persuasive Short Stories
As we are nearing our destination our bus driver yells out "I am going to stop at this gas station
and fill up." When our bus driver came back onto the bus he exclaimed "The gas station is out of
gasoline so we will stay here overnight." Then, everyone in the bus started grunting and moaning.
"But guys we can make this fun if we tell stories to pass the time, Here, I will start." I said. And we
began telling each other our stories. "Can we please adopt this one, Mom? Pretty please, he is so
cute! With his bright green eyes and his pink little nose," said Jacob, a thirteen year old boy with
red hair. "After this we will be pretty much bankrupt," said Jacob's mom, with her deep blue eyes
staring into Jacob's "Please just this one thats all," said Jacob "Ok but promise me that you will take
responsibility of him by taking care of him," said Jacob's mom. And they strutted to the individual
behind the counter. When they got back home with their new puppy they decided to name him Spot
due to a cinnamon–colored spot on his back. The next morning, when Jacob woke up he noticed
that Spot's nose is not the same shade of pink. In fact, it is quite pale. "Mom we need to take spot
to the vet now!" screamed Jacob wistfully. "Ok, I will get Spot while you get in the car," replied
Mom. When they got to their destination, Jacob sprinted out of the car and went to the vet's office
and almost immediately the vet said "Spot is going to need surgery, do you have insurance?" "No,

Persuasive Essay On Online Classes
Most people think highly of online classes; get to work from home, get to work on a flexible
schedule, and anyone can do it. Though no one has heard the cons of taking one. I personally took
three semesters of online classes in high school and had a horrible experience. Because of loose
scheduling, poor communication, and the focus needed, online classes are not suitable for
procrastinators. To give a better understanding, I will summarize my experience with the class. Me,
being a procrastinator, thought to myself: I'll just work on the weekends and if I don't finish the
class by the end of the school year, I can finish within the first few weeks of summer. This was a
god awful plan. Unsurprisingly, close to nothing was accomplished on the weekends. Friends would
ask me to hang out every weekend, and I did every time. Why would I want to work on my class on
the weekend when I could be having fun? I would later regret this decision. On the days I stayed
home and could have worked on the class, I completed nothing. On these days, I would tell myself:
I'll just complete what I didn't do this weekend next weekend. This rarely happened. Thus, the cycle
of getting nothing accomplished started. I disregarded my class for most of the first semester of
junior year. With only nine assignments out of eighty finished after the first semester of the school
year, I was immensely behind. I told myself to get my act together during second semester and grind

Persuasive Speech On E-Books Vs Textbooks
Assalamualaikum and very good morning to our beloved madam Nuraizah and friends. I grew up
reading books and nothing can compare to sitting on a sofa, turning the pages of thick book with a
piece of chipsmore biscuit in the hand. Yet recently, I have turned to e–books for much of my
reading. I believe that there is room in my life for both types of book. Today, I would like to give my
persuasive speech on is that we should switch to using e–book rather than textbooks. The reason I
choose this topic is because with the whole class being college students we need to purchase many
textbooks for class. With e–book being available I think this a great alternative to the traditional

Let's move to the advantages of using e–book. According to Khalid, the advantage of using e–book
is that large number of books can fit into a single Portable Electronic Device (PED). E–books are
lightweight and take up practically no storage space. Since the device can hold hundreds of
books, when travel, you can take your entire book library with you and hold it in your palm. Any
book that you purchased online can be easily be downloaded again, so you never have to worry
about losing a book. As a student, you only have to carry the portable electronic device and not the
big and bulky books. Another advantage for lectures is that the e–book can also be shown from the

Persuasive Essay On The Art Of Art
Art declares many things. It's a way for people to articulate their views, express their emotions, and
communicate to the world in a way that gives them creative release. This ability to exhibit one's
views in a imaginative and safe manner is exceptionally important to society's growth, and to border
this freedom to articulate is detrimental. Art should not be hidden and concealed permanently from
the public eye because some see it as vulgar due to the fact that many people have varying
definitions as to what is crossing the line. Only certain, obvious things can be noted as truly indecent.
Censorship is not an easy subject. As an artist, there is often a lot of tolerance for the obscene,
from appreciation to detail on the human figure or the unique renditions of animalistic
interaction. However, the majority of the public might find the same things that the artists see as
a unique interpretation as vulgar. It is easy to see that such a standpoint must be taken into more
consideration, as the point of indecency can differ greatly for a conservative Christian compared
to a liberal atheist. The two images of what each group considers unseemly would most likely
range in their obscenity, and so it would be difficult to put a line where one should be crossed. "If
an image offends very many people, sooner or later someone will invoke the law, and along with
it judges, legislators, policymakers, and the police," quotes Melinda Hinkson in Australia's Bill
Henson scandal: notes on the new cultural attitude to images. Here we have a majority rule, where
an image should only have action dealt upon it if enough people want change. Such censorship is
easy to determine when there are pieces depicting derogatory themes, such as child pornography or
racial notions. But there are multiple cases where there are two sides of the story, and it is not as
simple.
A statue named Truth is Beauty by Marco Cochrane has recently been constructed in the city of San
Leandro, here in the bay area. This statue depicts a nude woman dancing, her body semi–geometric,

Persuasive Essay
"Your assignment is to write a persuasive essay and present it to the class in a week. You will be
graded based on how convincing it is. Today we will be choosing topics," announced Mr.
Bowerbank, my 7th grade English teacher and ruler of classroom 110. My class simultaneously
groaned at the prospect of work. I simply lifted my head with intrigue as it was already May and
about time we had our first essay. He then proceeded to give examples of topics we could choose
and gave us some time to think before we had to tell him our topic. My classmates were already
rushing to tell the teacher their idea lest someone else steal it. That meant the usual abortion, death
penalty, or drug use topics were out. I really couldn't think of anything and the teacher was slowly
making his way through the remaining students like an executioner beheading criminals in a line.
I have always thought that he would make a marvelous supervillain if he had a curly mustache, a
tophat, and a cape. Eventually my name was called. I slowly dragged myself over to his desk.
Even sitting down, he still seemed to tower over me. "What is your topic Cindy?" As usual in such
desperate times, my mind turned to food. "Waffles are better than pancakes." I figured that awaffle
was just a differently shaped pancake with a nicer texture. "Hmm. Excellent topic. I look forward
to your essay!" I survived to live yet another day. As I walked to lunch, I went around and asked

Persuasive Essay About Science
Every kid wants to go to the moon one day, or save children and families from blazing fires They
all have a dream. We were always asked the question, "What do you want to be when you grow
up?" The stereotypical jobs always came to mind. The thought of being an astronaut, floating
through space and discovering the planets. The thought of being a firefighter and saving the town
from disastrous flames. These were normally the first ones. Kids would always argue over who
would be the best police officer. They would run around the playground playing "Cops and
Robbers", testing each other's heroic abilities. Then, there was me. Ever since I was young, I
knew I wanted to study some sort of science. My mom has always worked in the medical field, so
as soon as she got home I would ask what she did that day. It was always different. Some days she
would be working with a patient with cancer and others she would be removing an arm or leg due
to a horrific car accident. It all kept me entertained as a child and has since. Although I knew what
subject of study I wanted to go into, I never knew the specific field. There were so many options.
You could be a physician, surgeon, or a research scientist. The list goes on and will continue to
grow as new fields are developed. There is one deciding factor for everyone, though. There is
always that one moment or event that caused a feeling of awe. A desire to learn more. This feeling

Persuasive Essay Voting
Voting for something or for someone in a big or small range cannot only affect you but, also other
in a huge scale, even the whole country or world. Although people take it for granted, voting is a
system, whose certain leaders and decisions and decided based on the population choice. However
in some cases this doesn't apply such as in the electoral college, and therefore not voting or making
the wrong choice within the imprecise popular votes and electoral vote ratio, it can actually make
a big difference in many aspects. So not a single system is perfect with a voting candidate decision
system, it will sometimes, or even always fail. Therefore voting not only involves the dragging
numbers to a point where a candidate can win even if most population hasn't voted or is against it,
but also the self decision on which how those numbers would drag, towards whom and the aftermath
of your single vote, especially in the USA voting system the electoral college.
The Electoral College is the current voting system of the USA to choose the president and the vice
president. However the winner is not decided by the popular vote, but the electoral vote, which are
the state representatives, 100 senators, two per state and 435 representatives and three electors,
making about 538 of the votes, so therefore, the popular votes then turn into electoral votes.
However with this system, the numbers aren't relay derived in terms of the popular vote, although if

Over the past two years, my persuasive writing skills have remained stagnant and have not grown
much since I graduated from high school. The coursework of my chemical engineering classes has
focused more on technical writing to convey data and facts to evaluate a hypothesis rather than to
persuade a reader to think differently. However, I recognize that persuasivewriting has a place in my
education, and I am eager to grow my abilities over the course of the semester. In this
self–assessment, I will talk about the skills I want to develop and the strategies I will use along the

Taking the self–assessment quiz made me realize how out of practice I have become in writing
non–technical papers. The first and most important thing that I...show more content...
My first drafts are often very cluttered and require a lot of work to shift the pieces around into an
order that makes sense and has a natural flow to it. Additionally, if I do not have any direct quotes
or sources that I really want to use, I will often write around those sections in my paragraphs
requiring me to come back and insert these sources in a later stage of the writing process.
Sometimes I cannot find anything good to fit in so the quote can feel forced at times. Also, this
addition requires a possible rework of the paragraph to make sure that I am not being redundant or
self–contradicting elsewhere in my writing. Identifying these areas of weakness allows for the
development of a more focused and effective strategy to improve them. In order to address my
weakness in writing persuasive appeals is to put the practice and time into crafting them. I am not
going to get better overnight at this skill, so therefore I will need to be meticulous as I hone this
skill. I will not allow myself to settle for good enough with my appeals but will instead keep
writing into I develop something that is actually worthwhile. I plan to use the methods mentioned
on a website I found to improve my persuasive writing and help get my points across. Regarding

Reflection Of A Persuasive Reflection
Reflection of a Persuasive Essay by Vickie Hale In my revision, I decided to incorporate
actionable feedback from the feedback I received. The feedback I received was that my essay
needed more clarification, I choose to use this feedback to help make my argument more developed,
I wanted to create a better thought out essay and I worked on the clarification of my argument as
well as renewed my research. With that, I did some critical thinking to help work through the
weak areas of my essay which was the structure and syntax. Therefore, I incorporated these
suggestions because they helped me to improve my essay and help me to create a more persuasive
essay. Without these changes alongside the small revisions, I made, I do not believe my essay
would have been as well–written so they were much needed. My biggest challenges came from not
being able to pin down my argument, it took me a while to come find a side to an argument that
wasn't vague. Because, I usually write in a creative way, which does not necessarily have to be
persuasive, I usually write fictional stories and people getting the understanding from the
experiences of the characters is the outcome, but with persuasive writing, you are trying to get your
readers to not only agree with your side of the argument but to see what and why you are arguing
your side in the first place. This became difficult for me because I kept feeling like my argument
was not central and a little vague. I worked on trying to help my readers understand what and why
I was arguing my side of the argument. I had to think about who was reading my essay and this
helped. What I could have done differently is choose a more central argument, I believe it would
have reduced my challenges. This question is hard for me to answer because I did not receive but
one peer feedback, the feedback I incorporated concerning my exploration of the issue was more
clarification because that was one of the problems my peer review pointed out. I worked on my
clarification because it is one of the main elements, that is needed when you are writing a
persuasive essay or any essay for that matter. Clarification gives the essay structure so your readers

Persuasive Essay Ethos
This year's U.S. News and World Report's top ranked universities in America: #1 Princeton
University, #2 Harvard University, #3 University of Chicago. For many aspiring high school
students, being admitted into these elite universities has become nothing less than an infatuation.
However, many believe an elite education may actually have negative effects on young adults.
Echoed in, "Don't Send Your Kids To TheIvy League" by William Deresiewicz, he uses elements of
ethos and pathos to effectively argue that students who attend highly competitive universities may
actually be harmed by transforming into people who are "anxious, timid, lost, with little curiosity
and a stunted sense of purpose." Throughout the essay, Deresiewicz presents anecdotes and
explanations to contend his suggestion. In doing so, he is capable of building trust with the readers
and providing authentic reasoning for his claim. Deresiewicz explains, "It was only after
twenty–four years in the Ivy League –– college and a Ph.D. at Columbia, ten years on the faculty at
Yale –– that I started to think about what this system does to kids and how they can escape from it,
what it does to our society and how we can dismantle it" (Deresiewicz 203). By stating this, the
author not only displays his honesty to the readers when he admits the duration of coming to his
realization, but he also establishes his honorable status and credibility by mentioning his experience
at Columbia and Yale, two highly respected Ivy

Writing A Persuasive Essay
It's a simple enough idea, write an essay about a topic for credit. I'll admit I've written good
essays in the past, I just have one issue with this topic; I am not a persuasive person. I don't have a
passion to write about, or an idea in my head. Even if I was passionate about something, I doubt I
have the skill to convince you. My arguments would consist of why I like the topic (or hate it) with
an extreme bias, and I doubt that you would be moved. I couldn't convince you that the long hours of
school take a toll on the students. Even if others agree with me, the way I word things, the lack of
passion and my lack of being able to be assertive is the reason why I can't write this essay. First
things first, the way I word my thoughts. Regardless...show more content...
You'll get this definition: "The writer takes a stand on an issue–either "for" or "against"–and builds
the strongest possible argument to win over the reader. In a persuasive essay, it's the writer's job
to convince the reader to accept a particular point of view or take a specific action." Along with a
bunch of How Tos. I've have taken a stand that is very passive–aggressive, on why I can't write this
essay. I know what you're thinking, this is ridiculous. Just think of it like this, as you sit there
reading me ramble on and give excuses. You're starting to listen. Yes, you have been in my spot
before, lack of passion words don't form right and you're just not clear enough. I see the irony here,
this very essay, it contradicts itself. A persuasive essay on why I can't write a persuasive essay. In
the end it's genius, I'm not faking an opinion or sing someone's thoughts. You might have considered
this option before but it seemed too stupid. You looked up prompt after prompt. Nothing. When you

Persuasive Speech : Effective Communication
In writing it's important to have an understanding of what you're trying to convey for your audience
in addition to how you you will present your ideas. Effective communication extends beyond having
well organized writing expressed in complete and coherent sentences. The style, tone and clarity of
writing must also be considered, as they are constantly changing relative to the audience. Again,
analyzing one's audience and purpose is essential to successful writing. Appropriately, when choosing
the most effective language, it is important to consider the document objective as well as the reader.
In essence, this idea of effective use of language has been the overarching theme of this online
English course. Each writing assignment...show more content...
Thus, the style of language used within the text was often industry specific and possessed a more
academic feeling. For example, in the text I often used abbreviations and slang acceptable within the
discourse such as, SCM Supply chain management, KPI Key performance indicator, and RDT
Resource dependence. The word choice in this assignment is indicative of that fact that language is
chosen in a manner that is appropriate for both the audience and the purpose of the writing.
Furthermore, perhaps the greatest contrast and the most evident of how language works differently
in various types of writing is the discussion blog post. The blog post allowed the class to engage in
different types of formality of language. The formality of the language one uses should match the
formality of the situation and the relationship between the writer and reader. Therefore, as the
public audience was a class of online students taking a required writing course in the summer, the
formality of my writing has often been very informal. For example, in my blog post addressing
my concern over the unworthy power of BeyoncГ© I wrote, "It was the year 2008 when the
world was blessed with the images of BeyoncГ© (unapologetically) dancing around in a leotard.

and giving my reasons on why I feel the way I do about a certain situation. I loved writing persuasive
essays because I love to read them as well. I love how persuasive essays have a call–to–action;
giving the readers a chance to do something about the situation. I am all for protest and rights for
others, if I believe someone is wrong I will stand my ground and prove that it is wrong. I loved to
write persuasive essays because, I am a persuasive person in life. My opinions matter just as much

Persuasive Essay On Save Water
Water is something no one can live without. In fact, human bodies are about sixty–five percent water.
Therefore, water conservation is a project everyone should be willing to participate in. Specifically,
in the Logan, Utah area, water conservation is an important topic, as the citizens use water every
day. "In an interview with The Herald Journal, USU sociology professor Douglas Jackson–Smith
said the city's water concerns have the potential to increase, based on Logan's anticipated
population growth by 2050" (Peikes). There is a growing concern about the amount of water the
city will have or be able to produce for the growing population. Although it is important that each
citizen is staying hydrated and being hygienic, people do not need to use so much water in doing
so. Many people have cut back on watering their lawns, or started to take shorter showers, but there
are more options to choose from and ways to conserve water. This problem is solvable, if only more
people would participate and take steps to conserve water.
First, the citizens of Logan, Utah should act in conserving the water supply in Logan for now and for
the future. The actions they can take are simple, and come down to the basic rule "stop using so
much/ wasting water". Each individual resident can take steps to conserve water within their homes.
That is usually the easy part. The hard part about conserving water is getting businesses and the city
itself to conserve water. Businesses waste a substantial

Persuasive Essay On Suicide
In today's society, suicide can be a multifaceted issue, sometimes an act of heroism, selfishness,
love, or a brave choice. I am arguing against suicide because it is not a solution to a problem, it
should not even be included as an option. Suicide is simply defined as "the deliberate taking of
one's own life, usually the result of a psychiatric disorder, although sometimes deliberated in the face
of life–threatening physical illness, significant interpersonal stress, or when under the influence of
one or more substances of abuse" (Piotrowski). This topic interests me because of the fact that the
rates are increasing year after year and it can happen to someone close to me at any moment. This
topic should interest you too because someone close to you can show warning signs, which can be
subtle or more discernible. Also if you are reading this as a parent, you should know "suicide is the
third leading cause of death for those between the ages of ten and fourteen, and it is the second
leading cause of death for those ages fifteen to thirty–four" (Goff). Yet the factors that play into a
someone's decision is anything but simple. The most obvious and severe effect of suicide is the loss
of a meaningful, valuable human life. "In the United States in 2013, according to the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 41,149 individuals committed suicide and approximately
494,169 received medical treatment for self–inflicted injuries. The World Health Organization
(WHO) reported an estimated 800,000 suicides worldwide in 2016, and suicide is the second
leading cause of death among fifteen– to twenty–nine–year–olds worldwide. Women attempt suicide
more often than men, but men complete suicide more often than women because men tend to use
more lethal means, such as a firearm" (Piotrowski). With suicide rates on a continuous rise in
America, society must ask what can be done to save lives.
The main argument against suicide is that it is selfish, which is true. By you killing yourself, it
causes a lot of pain to those left behind, like your family, loved ones, friends, etc. They tend to
blame themselves for your death. Even if you feel like nobody in the whole world cares about you,
you are wrong. When you think

Persuasive Essay On My Writing Style
Among words on paper, one hardly finds oneself to question their particular style or preferences in
writing. I as a writer can tell you how the basis of my "madness" works, but who are we joking, that
would just be utterly extensive and boring. Within the different types of genres one person can write
about, I find persuasive, argumentative, and research/informational writings to be the most
appealing. I tend to be a very opinionative person, meaning that if I hear any of some sort of injustice
or intriguing thought said, don't think twice of hearing my stance on that topic. Therefore, especially
with persuasive essays, I will always find my pen promptly trying to catch up, while my thoughts
keep rushing in, in order to get on paper. It's a formative writing piece, that I can easily state my
claim and through using accurate information, will no longer be an assignment, more or less it will
turn into a conversation between my writing and my thoughts. Nevertheless, when it comes to...show

I don't know if not being an imaginative individual may be at fault, but ever since I pick up my
first writing utensil I was not a fan of writing on the spot. When I always hear the dreadful words
coming from an English teacher, "Well class, today we will be having a free–write", my heart drops.
Fear, of the possibility of being the last individual writing, encountering multiple issues from
knowing what to write about to what shall be the focus of the story. Perhaps, my inability of writing
any creative piece can be layback to the constant issue of knowing where and how to start and finish.
Nonetheless, moving away from genres, my ultimate weakness would have to be mechanics. I mean,
I understand the basics of noun, verb, punctuation, and so forth, but I regularly find myself

Persuasive Essay On How To Change The World
We all need to start today and change one thing that will make a difference in this world. We all

difference to our kids, our family, our community, and our world. If you think you can change the
world, you might. If you think you can't change the world, you won't.
United States is a country that has developed rather quickly in all areas. Over the years it has
gained power, fought for power, and we are still trying to stay on the cutting edge in all areas. We
are not afraid to make changes, break tradition and reform what doesn't work. It is important that
the United States is willing to make changes for themselves and their descendants. Changing is
never easy, but it is worth it. More and more these day's people become more easily offended
about change and what is happening. Millennials am I right? There is a famous saying that I
learned from my parents. They said, "If you want change in your life start today and make one
change." Change how you get dressed, your route to work, and try out a new gas station. Mix things
up with your morning routine. Get up an hour earlier, and do something productive with your time.
Switch where you park at home or at work. Change your deodorant, and get a new smell going. Ride
a bike somewhere, anywhere and see something different.

Persuasive Essay Writer

  • 1. How To Write A Persuasive Essay Writing essay is one of the things that I used to dislike before. For me, writing an essay was a difficult and boring thing. However, I change my mind when I was doing the assignment, "Persuasive Essay". This essay is my first English essay, and it was a quite challenging task for me. In this assignment , I learned a lot. For example, to use the transition words to connect each paragraph. Also, to use other writer's words to make my idea be more powerful. Thus, this assignment improves my writing skills a lot. Before, I didn't know that I have to use the transition words in an essay. For me, an essay is constituted by many single paragraphs. However, everything is different when I was doing this assignment, Persuasive Essay. I noticed that every paragraph should support theme to make an essay stronger. Also, after Ms. Weller marked this assignment, I learned that using transition words can create a powerful link between my ideas. For example, using the word, "in addition" , can make two paragraphs connect to each other. It also can make readers understand the logic of an essay. Therefore, I' ve learned the writing skill which can make each paragraph be connected from this assignment....show more content... I really enjoyed it. As I was researching, I also could read other writer's literature. I notice that using the quote or data can make the theme of an essay be stronger and more persuasive. For example, I use the quote from Steven Crowder, the author of "TheTop 5 Reasons College May Be Waste Of Time In 2015", to support my idea, going to college is unnecessary. The quote not only can make an essay more cogent but also can make readers agree with writer's thinking. Thus, I've learned to use the quote to make my essay to more Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 2. Persuasive Short Stories As we are nearing our destination our bus driver yells out "I am going to stop at this gas station and fill up." When our bus driver came back onto the bus he exclaimed "The gas station is out of gasoline so we will stay here overnight." Then, everyone in the bus started grunting and moaning. "But guys we can make this fun if we tell stories to pass the time, Here, I will start." I said. And we began telling each other our stories. "Can we please adopt this one, Mom? Pretty please, he is so cute! With his bright green eyes and his pink little nose," said Jacob, a thirteen year old boy with red hair. "After this we will be pretty much bankrupt," said Jacob's mom, with her deep blue eyes staring into Jacob's "Please just this one thats all," said Jacob "Ok but promise me that you will take responsibility of him by taking care of him," said Jacob's mom. And they strutted to the individual behind the counter. When they got back home with their new puppy they decided to name him Spot due to a cinnamon–colored spot on his back. The next morning, when Jacob woke up he noticed that Spot's nose is not the same shade of pink. In fact, it is quite pale. "Mom we need to take spot to the vet now!" screamed Jacob wistfully. "Ok, I will get Spot while you get in the car," replied Mom. When they got to their destination, Jacob sprinted out of the car and went to the vet's office and almost immediately the vet said "Spot is going to need surgery, do you have insurance?" "No, how much Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 3. Persuasive Essay On Online Classes Most people think highly of online classes; get to work from home, get to work on a flexible schedule, and anyone can do it. Though no one has heard the cons of taking one. I personally took three semesters of online classes in high school and had a horrible experience. Because of loose scheduling, poor communication, and the focus needed, online classes are not suitable for procrastinators. To give a better understanding, I will summarize my experience with the class. Me, being a procrastinator, thought to myself: I'll just work on the weekends and if I don't finish the class by the end of the school year, I can finish within the first few weeks of summer. This was a god awful plan. Unsurprisingly, close to nothing was accomplished on the weekends. Friends would ask me to hang out every weekend, and I did every time. Why would I want to work on my class on the weekend when I could be having fun? I would later regret this decision. On the days I stayed home and could have worked on the class, I completed nothing. On these days, I would tell myself: I'll just complete what I didn't do this weekend next weekend. This rarely happened. Thus, the cycle of getting nothing accomplished started. I disregarded my class for most of the first semester of junior year. With only nine assignments out of eighty finished after the first semester of the school year, I was immensely behind. I told myself to get my act together during second semester and grind out these two semesters Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 4. Persuasive Speech On E-Books Vs Textbooks Assalamualaikum and very good morning to our beloved madam Nuraizah and friends. I grew up reading books and nothing can compare to sitting on a sofa, turning the pages of thick book with a piece of chipsmore biscuit in the hand. Yet recently, I have turned to e–books for much of my reading. I believe that there is room in my life for both types of book. Today, I would like to give my persuasive speech on is that we should switch to using e–book rather than textbooks. The reason I choose this topic is because with the whole class being college students we need to purchase many textbooks for class. With e–book being available I think this a great alternative to the traditional textbook. As Tosun quoted the e–book definition by Onder, e–book...show more content... Let's move to the advantages of using e–book. According to Khalid, the advantage of using e–book is that large number of books can fit into a single Portable Electronic Device (PED). E–books are lightweight and take up practically no storage space. Since the device can hold hundreds of books, when travel, you can take your entire book library with you and hold it in your palm. Any book that you purchased online can be easily be downloaded again, so you never have to worry about losing a book. As a student, you only have to carry the portable electronic device and not the big and bulky books. Another advantage for lectures is that the e–book can also be shown from the computer and overhead projector to entire Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 5. Persuasive Essay On The Art Of Art Art declares many things. It's a way for people to articulate their views, express their emotions, and communicate to the world in a way that gives them creative release. This ability to exhibit one's views in a imaginative and safe manner is exceptionally important to society's growth, and to border this freedom to articulate is detrimental. Art should not be hidden and concealed permanently from the public eye because some see it as vulgar due to the fact that many people have varying definitions as to what is crossing the line. Only certain, obvious things can be noted as truly indecent. Censorship is not an easy subject. As an artist, there is often a lot of tolerance for the obscene, from appreciation to detail on the human figure or the unique renditions of animalistic interaction. However, the majority of the public might find the same things that the artists see as a unique interpretation as vulgar. It is easy to see that such a standpoint must be taken into more consideration, as the point of indecency can differ greatly for a conservative Christian compared to a liberal atheist. The two images of what each group considers unseemly would most likely range in their obscenity, and so it would be difficult to put a line where one should be crossed. "If an image offends very many people, sooner or later someone will invoke the law, and along with it judges, legislators, policymakers, and the police," quotes Melinda Hinkson in Australia's Bill Henson scandal: notes on the new cultural attitude to images. Here we have a majority rule, where an image should only have action dealt upon it if enough people want change. Such censorship is easy to determine when there are pieces depicting derogatory themes, such as child pornography or racial notions. But there are multiple cases where there are two sides of the story, and it is not as simple. A statue named Truth is Beauty by Marco Cochrane has recently been constructed in the city of San Leandro, here in the bay area. This statue depicts a nude woman dancing, her body semi–geometric, and although you can not vividly see the all of the womans body parts, it is not difficult to know that she is supposed to be depicted as naked. A completely naked figure, Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 6. Persuasive Essay "Your assignment is to write a persuasive essay and present it to the class in a week. You will be graded based on how convincing it is. Today we will be choosing topics," announced Mr. Bowerbank, my 7th grade English teacher and ruler of classroom 110. My class simultaneously groaned at the prospect of work. I simply lifted my head with intrigue as it was already May and about time we had our first essay. He then proceeded to give examples of topics we could choose and gave us some time to think before we had to tell him our topic. My classmates were already rushing to tell the teacher their idea lest someone else steal it. That meant the usual abortion, death penalty, or drug use topics were out. I really couldn't think of anything and the teacher was slowly making his way through the remaining students like an executioner beheading criminals in a line. I have always thought that he would make a marvelous supervillain if he had a curly mustache, a tophat, and a cape. Eventually my name was called. I slowly dragged myself over to his desk. Even sitting down, he still seemed to tower over me. "What is your topic Cindy?" As usual in such desperate times, my mind turned to food. "Waffles are better than pancakes." I figured that awaffle was just a differently shaped pancake with a nicer texture. "Hmm. Excellent topic. I look forward to your essay!" I survived to live yet another day. As I walked to lunch, I went around and asked everyone the age old question: "Do you like Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 7. Persuasive Essay About Science Every kid wants to go to the moon one day, or save children and families from blazing fires They all have a dream. We were always asked the question, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" The stereotypical jobs always came to mind. The thought of being an astronaut, floating through space and discovering the planets. The thought of being a firefighter and saving the town from disastrous flames. These were normally the first ones. Kids would always argue over who would be the best police officer. They would run around the playground playing "Cops and Robbers", testing each other's heroic abilities. Then, there was me. Ever since I was young, I knew I wanted to study some sort of science. My mom has always worked in the medical field, so as soon as she got home I would ask what she did that day. It was always different. Some days she would be working with a patient with cancer and others she would be removing an arm or leg due to a horrific car accident. It all kept me entertained as a child and has since. Although I knew what subject of study I wanted to go into, I never knew the specific field. There were so many options. You could be a physician, surgeon, or a research scientist. The list goes on and will continue to grow as new fields are developed. There is one deciding factor for everyone, though. There is always that one moment or event that caused a feeling of awe. A desire to learn more. This feeling came to me in my sophomore year of high school. Walking Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 8. Persuasive Essay Voting Voting for something or for someone in a big or small range cannot only affect you but, also other in a huge scale, even the whole country or world. Although people take it for granted, voting is a system, whose certain leaders and decisions and decided based on the population choice. However in some cases this doesn't apply such as in the electoral college, and therefore not voting or making the wrong choice within the imprecise popular votes and electoral vote ratio, it can actually make a big difference in many aspects. So not a single system is perfect with a voting candidate decision system, it will sometimes, or even always fail. Therefore voting not only involves the dragging numbers to a point where a candidate can win even if most population hasn't voted or is against it, but also the self decision on which how those numbers would drag, towards whom and the aftermath of your single vote, especially in the USA voting system the electoral college. The Electoral College is the current voting system of the USA to choose the president and the vice president. However the winner is not decided by the popular vote, but the electoral vote, which are the state representatives, 100 senators, two per state and 435 representatives and three electors, making about 538 of the votes, so therefore, the popular votes then turn into electoral votes. However with this system, the numbers aren't relay derived in terms of the popular vote, although if a state doesn't give to a Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 9. Over the past two years, my persuasive writing skills have remained stagnant and have not grown much since I graduated from high school. The coursework of my chemical engineering classes has focused more on technical writing to convey data and facts to evaluate a hypothesis rather than to persuade a reader to think differently. However, I recognize that persuasivewriting has a place in my education, and I am eager to grow my abilities over the course of the semester. In this self–assessment, I will talk about the skills I want to develop and the strategies I will use along the way. Taking the self–assessment quiz made me realize how out of practice I have become in writing non–technical papers. The first and most important thing that I...show more content... My first drafts are often very cluttered and require a lot of work to shift the pieces around into an order that makes sense and has a natural flow to it. Additionally, if I do not have any direct quotes or sources that I really want to use, I will often write around those sections in my paragraphs requiring me to come back and insert these sources in a later stage of the writing process. Sometimes I cannot find anything good to fit in so the quote can feel forced at times. Also, this addition requires a possible rework of the paragraph to make sure that I am not being redundant or self–contradicting elsewhere in my writing. Identifying these areas of weakness allows for the development of a more focused and effective strategy to improve them. In order to address my weakness in writing persuasive appeals is to put the practice and time into crafting them. I am not going to get better overnight at this skill, so therefore I will need to be meticulous as I hone this skill. I will not allow myself to settle for good enough with my appeals but will instead keep writing into I develop something that is actually worthwhile. I plan to use the methods mentioned on a website I found to improve my persuasive writing and help get my points across. Regarding my body paragraph structure, I plan to make creating an outline a bona fide part of my writing Get more content on HelpWriting.net

  • 11. Reflection Of A Persuasive Reflection Reflection of a Persuasive Essay by Vickie Hale In my revision, I decided to incorporate actionable feedback from the feedback I received. The feedback I received was that my essay needed more clarification, I choose to use this feedback to help make my argument more developed, I wanted to create a better thought out essay and I worked on the clarification of my argument as well as renewed my research. With that, I did some critical thinking to help work through the weak areas of my essay which was the structure and syntax. Therefore, I incorporated these suggestions because they helped me to improve my essay and help me to create a more persuasive essay. Without these changes alongside the small revisions, I made, I do not believe my essay would have been as well–written so they were much needed. My biggest challenges came from not being able to pin down my argument, it took me a while to come find a side to an argument that wasn't vague. Because, I usually write in a creative way, which does not necessarily have to be persuasive, I usually write fictional stories and people getting the understanding from the experiences of the characters is the outcome, but with persuasive writing, you are trying to get your readers to not only agree with your side of the argument but to see what and why you are arguing your side in the first place. This became difficult for me because I kept feeling like my argument was not central and a little vague. I worked on trying to help my readers understand what and why I was arguing my side of the argument. I had to think about who was reading my essay and this helped. What I could have done differently is choose a more central argument, I believe it would have reduced my challenges. This question is hard for me to answer because I did not receive but one peer feedback, the feedback I incorporated concerning my exploration of the issue was more clarification because that was one of the problems my peer review pointed out. I worked on my clarification because it is one of the main elements, that is needed when you are writing a persuasive essay or any essay for that matter. Clarification gives the essay structure so your readers can have a full understanding of your Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 12. Persuasive Essay Ethos This year's U.S. News and World Report's top ranked universities in America: #1 Princeton University, #2 Harvard University, #3 University of Chicago. For many aspiring high school students, being admitted into these elite universities has become nothing less than an infatuation. However, many believe an elite education may actually have negative effects on young adults. Echoed in, "Don't Send Your Kids To TheIvy League" by William Deresiewicz, he uses elements of ethos and pathos to effectively argue that students who attend highly competitive universities may actually be harmed by transforming into people who are "anxious, timid, lost, with little curiosity and a stunted sense of purpose." Throughout the essay, Deresiewicz presents anecdotes and explanations to contend his suggestion. In doing so, he is capable of building trust with the readers and providing authentic reasoning for his claim. Deresiewicz explains, "It was only after twenty–four years in the Ivy League –– college and a Ph.D. at Columbia, ten years on the faculty at Yale –– that I started to think about what this system does to kids and how they can escape from it, what it does to our society and how we can dismantle it" (Deresiewicz 203). By stating this, the author not only displays his honesty to the readers when he admits the duration of coming to his realization, but he also establishes his honorable status and credibility by mentioning his experience at Columbia and Yale, two highly respected Ivy Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 13. Writing A Persuasive Essay It's a simple enough idea, write an essay about a topic for credit. I'll admit I've written good essays in the past, I just have one issue with this topic; I am not a persuasive person. I don't have a passion to write about, or an idea in my head. Even if I was passionate about something, I doubt I have the skill to convince you. My arguments would consist of why I like the topic (or hate it) with an extreme bias, and I doubt that you would be moved. I couldn't convince you that the long hours of school take a toll on the students. Even if others agree with me, the way I word things, the lack of passion and my lack of being able to be assertive is the reason why I can't write this essay. First things first, the way I word my thoughts. Regardless...show more content... You'll get this definition: "The writer takes a stand on an issue–either "for" or "against"–and builds the strongest possible argument to win over the reader. In a persuasive essay, it's the writer's job to convince the reader to accept a particular point of view or take a specific action." Along with a bunch of How Tos. I've have taken a stand that is very passive–aggressive, on why I can't write this essay. I know what you're thinking, this is ridiculous. Just think of it like this, as you sit there reading me ramble on and give excuses. You're starting to listen. Yes, you have been in my spot before, lack of passion words don't form right and you're just not clear enough. I see the irony here, this very essay, it contradicts itself. A persuasive essay on why I can't write a persuasive essay. In the end it's genius, I'm not faking an opinion or sing someone's thoughts. You might have considered this option before but it seemed too stupid. You looked up prompt after prompt. Nothing. When you finally settle you know it's not your best work and the grade shows. Or you did it last minute, reworded someone else's essay. You've even considered turning in nothing, I mean what's the point Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 14. Persuasive Speech : Effective Communication In writing it's important to have an understanding of what you're trying to convey for your audience in addition to how you you will present your ideas. Effective communication extends beyond having well organized writing expressed in complete and coherent sentences. The style, tone and clarity of writing must also be considered, as they are constantly changing relative to the audience. Again, analyzing one's audience and purpose is essential to successful writing. Appropriately, when choosing the most effective language, it is important to consider the document objective as well as the reader. In essence, this idea of effective use of language has been the overarching theme of this online English course. Each writing assignment...show more content... Thus, the style of language used within the text was often industry specific and possessed a more academic feeling. For example, in the text I often used abbreviations and slang acceptable within the discourse such as, SCM Supply chain management, KPI Key performance indicator, and RDT Resource dependence. The word choice in this assignment is indicative of that fact that language is chosen in a manner that is appropriate for both the audience and the purpose of the writing. Furthermore, perhaps the greatest contrast and the most evident of how language works differently in various types of writing is the discussion blog post. The blog post allowed the class to engage in different types of formality of language. The formality of the language one uses should match the formality of the situation and the relationship between the writer and reader. Therefore, as the public audience was a class of online students taking a required writing course in the summer, the formality of my writing has often been very informal. For example, in my blog post addressing my concern over the unworthy power of BeyoncГ© I wrote, "It was the year 2008 when the world was blessed with the images of BeyoncГ© (unapologetically) dancing around in a leotard. Not only is BeyoncГ©'s single lady video one of her most notable hits it begins her what is now a decade long relationship ending spree" (Marquis, 2016 ).

  • 16. Persuasive Essay On Save Water Water is something no one can live without. In fact, human bodies are about sixty–five percent water. Therefore, water conservation is a project everyone should be willing to participate in. Specifically, in the Logan, Utah area, water conservation is an important topic, as the citizens use water every day. "In an interview with The Herald Journal, USU sociology professor Douglas Jackson–Smith said the city's water concerns have the potential to increase, based on Logan's anticipated population growth by 2050" (Peikes). There is a growing concern about the amount of water the city will have or be able to produce for the growing population. Although it is important that each citizen is staying hydrated and being hygienic, people do not need to use so much water in doing so. Many people have cut back on watering their lawns, or started to take shorter showers, but there are more options to choose from and ways to conserve water. This problem is solvable, if only more people would participate and take steps to conserve water. First, the citizens of Logan, Utah should act in conserving the water supply in Logan for now and for the future. The actions they can take are simple, and come down to the basic rule "stop using so much/ wasting water". Each individual resident can take steps to conserve water within their homes. That is usually the easy part. The hard part about conserving water is getting businesses and the city itself to conserve water. Businesses waste a substantial Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 17. Persuasive Essay On Suicide In today's society, suicide can be a multifaceted issue, sometimes an act of heroism, selfishness, love, or a brave choice. I am arguing against suicide because it is not a solution to a problem, it should not even be included as an option. Suicide is simply defined as "the deliberate taking of one's own life, usually the result of a psychiatric disorder, although sometimes deliberated in the face of life–threatening physical illness, significant interpersonal stress, or when under the influence of one or more substances of abuse" (Piotrowski). This topic interests me because of the fact that the rates are increasing year after year and it can happen to someone close to me at any moment. This topic should interest you too because someone close to you can show warning signs, which can be subtle or more discernible. Also if you are reading this as a parent, you should know "suicide is the third leading cause of death for those between the ages of ten and fourteen, and it is the second leading cause of death for those ages fifteen to thirty–four" (Goff). Yet the factors that play into a someone's decision is anything but simple. The most obvious and severe effect of suicide is the loss of a meaningful, valuable human life. "In the United States in 2013, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 41,149 individuals committed suicide and approximately 494,169 received medical treatment for self–inflicted injuries. The World Health Organization (WHO) reported an estimated 800,000 suicides worldwide in 2016, and suicide is the second leading cause of death among fifteen– to twenty–nine–year–olds worldwide. Women attempt suicide more often than men, but men complete suicide more often than women because men tend to use more lethal means, such as a firearm" (Piotrowski). With suicide rates on a continuous rise in America, society must ask what can be done to save lives. The main argument against suicide is that it is selfish, which is true. By you killing yourself, it causes a lot of pain to those left behind, like your family, loved ones, friends, etc. They tend to blame themselves for your death. Even if you feel like nobody in the whole world cares about you, you are wrong. When you think Get more content on HelpWriting.net

  • 19. Persuasive Essay On My Writing Style Among words on paper, one hardly finds oneself to question their particular style or preferences in writing. I as a writer can tell you how the basis of my "madness" works, but who are we joking, that would just be utterly extensive and boring. Within the different types of genres one person can write about, I find persuasive, argumentative, and research/informational writings to be the most appealing. I tend to be a very opinionative person, meaning that if I hear any of some sort of injustice or intriguing thought said, don't think twice of hearing my stance on that topic. Therefore, especially with persuasive essays, I will always find my pen promptly trying to catch up, while my thoughts keep rushing in, in order to get on paper. It's a formative writing piece, that I can easily state my claim and through using accurate information, will no longer be an assignment, more or less it will turn into a conversation between my writing and my thoughts. Nevertheless, when it comes to...show more content... I don't know if not being an imaginative individual may be at fault, but ever since I pick up my first writing utensil I was not a fan of writing on the spot. When I always hear the dreadful words coming from an English teacher, "Well class, today we will be having a free–write", my heart drops. Fear, of the possibility of being the last individual writing, encountering multiple issues from knowing what to write about to what shall be the focus of the story. Perhaps, my inability of writing any creative piece can be layback to the constant issue of knowing where and how to start and finish. Nonetheless, moving away from genres, my ultimate weakness would have to be mechanics. I mean, I understand the basics of noun, verb, punctuation, and so forth, but I regularly find myself re–reading my writing pieces over and over and still finding everlasting Get more content on HelpWriting.net

We all have a burning desire and drive to change the world or at least change ourselves. To make a difference to our kids, our family, our community, and our world. If you think you can change the world, you might. If you think you can't change the world, you won't. United States is a country that has developed rather quickly in all areas. Over the years it has gained power, fought for power, and we are still trying to stay on the cutting edge in all areas. We are not afraid to make changes, break tradition and reform what doesn't work. It is important that the United States is willing to make changes for themselves and their descendants. Changing is never easy, but it is worth it. More and more these day's people become more easily offended about change and what is happening. Millennials am I right? There is a famous saying that I learned from my parents. They said, "If you want change in your life start today and make one change." Change how you get dressed, your route to work, and try out a new gas station. Mix things up with your morning routine. Get up an hour earlier, and do something productive with your time. Switch where you park at home or at work. Change your deodorant, and get a new smell going. Ride a bike somewhere, anywhere and see something different.
