How do I structure an essay?

All essays should have the same structure- introduction, pro and con paragraphs (weigh the paragraphs by the conclusion you plan to draw on) then a short conclusion. Theme each paragraph with a theory (eg. Marxism) and include at least three theorists work to back up your point. The paragraph should start with theory with their perspective on the point (pro or con) expand slightly on the point, use a theorist and explain why it backs up the point (the same for the other theorists) then analyse, expand and explain on your point. Ensure to refer to the question regularly throughout the essay, especially beginning and end of essay!
