How should I structure an essay?

1.Introduction- set out 'big ideas' and your argument which then should be evident as the essay progresses. Shouldn't be too wordy, short concise and clear. 2.Paragraph One e.g.- themes within play/novel/piece3.Paragraph Two e.g.- inner turmoil of characters 4.Paragraph Three e.g.- how women are presented within the play/novel/piece5.Conclusion- Go back to initial thoughts set out in the conclusion and evaluate argument without introducing any new or 'random' points. Stick to the content already within your essay
