What Is the Best way to Structure an Essay?

For English A-Level you have something called 'AO's (assessment objectives). The best way to guarantee strong essays is to structure your work around the four AO's.AO1= point (what/ why are you writing)AO2= quotation (direct copy of words from the text)AO3= analysis (what does this quote tell us?- LINK to AO1)AO4= context (any RELEVANT context on the writer/ period of text etc).*If each paragraph is structured in this way-you are guaranteed a strong essay!
