- In this video, I'll go through how to write a prize-winning essay. This guide is also very relevant to writing 1st class essays at university.
This is mainly aimed at sixth form students applying for university, but also applicable to undergrad students (especially those starting out in first year!) The process of writing and research between these is very similar!
Structure of this video:
Part 1: Before you start writing
i) Understanding the question
ii) Note down initial ideas and research needs
iii) Research (why and how)
iv) Making a research document
Part 2: Writing Process
i) Drafts
ii) Research document
Part 3: Structure
i) Significance
ii) Introduction
iii) Main body (overview)
iv) Paragraph structure
v) Conclusion
Part 4: Proof-Reading
i) Significance
ii) Check by yourself and with the help of others
iii) Leave the essay (and come back with fresh eyes)
iv) Cut down to the word count
Part 5: Referencing
i) Significance
ii) Using your research document
iii) Checking you have the right format
Hope you find this video useful and enjoy it!

Do you need to wear glasses 😭? Your huge beautiful blue eyeballs will be destroyed by the homework and exams 😭
Hey! I'll be submitting an essay for an international event. It's my first time so I'm really nervous. May I contact you via email or something to clarify a few things? It's really urgent for me and I'd appreciate it a lot. Thank you!
yep, though I'm quite busy preparing for exams at the moment. Probably easiest if you contact me via instagram (@Maria.izmirlieva)
