How To Write A Process Essay: A Tutorial For Beginners

A process essay (or "pressay", as it should be called) is exactly what it sounds like; a step by step guide which tells its readers how to do something. Thanks to the internet, process essays have become more and more popular and if you're a writer, the chances are you're going to have to write one. Any type of essay can be daunting if you haven't encountered it before, so writing a process essay may be a little tricky the first time round. However, there's no need to worry as we have written this handy process article to explain how to write a process article.

1. Choose something you are good at -
• Everybody is good at something which means everybody has material for a good process essay.
• You can choose anything you want, no matter how crazy it is. A great writer can write a great process essay about even the most bizarre of topics.


2. Explain why it is a good thing to be able to do -
• While many people will search for a process essay about your topic, there are some people who will just stumble upon it.
• These are the people to keep in mind when writing. You need to convince them that their lives will be made better by reading your essay.


3. Break it down -
• If you're good at something, you can usually do it without much thought; but to write your process essay you are going to have to get down to exactly what is involved in doing something right.
• For example, if you're writing about how to take the perfect soccer penalty, don't just say "Kick the ball ." Reader's want to know what part of the foot they should kick with, what part of the net to aim for and other sporty stuff I don't fully understand.


4. Use adjectives -
• When you're writing a process essay, it is helpful to imagine you are writing a recipe.
• A recipe doesn't just tell you to stir, it tells you to stir "briskly." Going back the soccer analogy - Tell your readers to kick "powerfully" or "softly."


5. You are %100 right -
• When you write a process essay, you are telling the reader not how YOU do something, but EVERYONE should do something. They came to your essay to learn from you.

If you disagree with me on any of these points, you're wrong and I'm right.
