Do You Know How to Write The Good Introductory Part in An Essay?

 By: TOEFL consultant

Every essay must cover three points, namely introduction, body, and conclusion parts. Moreover, the introduction itself has to consist of both general statements and thesis statements.


The general statement leads to introduce a topic of the essay and expresses background information which the topic concerns. Here, the point is general ideas.

The thesis statement, on the other hand, states the main topic in the general one. It serves some lists the subtopics taking place. Moreover, topic sentences in the body of the essay must explain all the topics. Remember! The thesis statement has to occupy the last sentence position in the introduction of the essay. Here, the point is the subtopic regarding as subdivisions of the general idea.
