How to Write an Essay: Formulas for 5-Paragraph Essay 

I found this video after 12 years, and your explanation is still the best. Thank you so much, Dr. David

That was the best explanation I ever heard even the teachers cannot explain like this man. Well explanation thanks, I learned more from you and I also improved in writing essay

It only took 11 minutes for me to finally understand this and while in school, it took me 11 years. Thank you

OMG, you just explained what I've been struggling with this past year. I should see my GPA improve drastically. I wish all instructors taught as you do. Thank you so much. I'm subscribing!

this is one of the GREATEST explanations!

You are most welcome, Tricia. Best of luck with your writing. The more you do it, the better you will get. Always read your writing out loud and have someone else read it over before turning in for a grade.

This video gave me so many better grades than i ever would have gotten

I can't thank you enough, Dr. David, You are the best.

Can you be my english teacher

This video course of 11 min helped me more than a full semester in the university.

Mr. Taylor, I have to say... I've been busting my balls here trying to find an intelligent approach to this relatively simple insanity! With the concepts that you presented, I feel confident enough to take on the challenge of a scholarship essay for NORTH CENTRAL UNIVERSITY. Thanks sir!

Thanks a lot Sir... actually.. this brilliant man is helping me to graduate from high school with his helpful videos.

We are non-native speakers and we really struggle with that as we haven't learned how to write. in 10 minutes video you explained to us things that we struggled to know for years! Thanks so much sir for all the time and effort you put into making that amazing content. Greetings from Egypt, and please let me know if you ever made it here!

Laura--thanks for the kind words. Yes, have been a teacher all my adult life. You may also be interested in this video on using sources in a basic research paper: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kzcBiY2BGQA.html

KUDOS. You explain things CRYSTAL CLEAR. Your a great professor.

You're very welcome. Glad it worked for you.

Excellent tutorial that simplifies a complex task by breaking it down into three "secrets". Very watchable and enjoyable elucidation on how to write an essay. I made my teens watch it.

Hi David, Thank you very much, you´re a great teacher. I am studying english (starting advance level CI, and last week I had to write an essay as a part of my weekly evaluation and I faild :( . Today after my depressed mood I started to look for any tutorial that could help me and I found out yours!!! If I'd known about you before, I wouldn't have fail the exam, I think there's no bad student, sometimes all depends on teacher's skills and you have all of them, congratulations!!!. I apologize for my spelling mistakes. Best wishes from Lima, Perú

Thanks, rachel. that's great to hear. Good luck in your teaching. I've always wanted to be a high school English teacher but didn't have the classroom management skills.

Thank you professor all my essays are 100s

I'm 11 years late, but as a Swedish student after watching this video our English teacher gave us, I love everything about it. Very helpful and straight to the point with a memorable design as well. For being made so long ago, I dig the vibe about it. Very good work that's still respected today

David---you've just made my day. I wish you the very best in your work. The fact that you are here and working hard tells me and the world that you will do it.

Thank you very much for these generous words!

Yr 2024 and I am so glad to come across you Dr. David. Learnt so much from you!

Perfect... easy essay... I already knew this things but he really makes it bright clear...

Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.

The fact this guy is stilling replying to comments is legendary. Thanks for the save btw 😉

Thank you! I like how you put the first sentence of (almost) every paragraph and then you filled in the blanks after... It helped me to get started.

I had took my TEST but the writing part I didn't pass because of the essay part but this video helped me out a lot I just hope I pass the next time I take it....THANK YOU SO MUCH☺

Lifesaver! I did 13 years of school, a two year writing diploma, and a three year BA degree, but no one taught this basic approach. So much of my life wasted because the teachers were clueless.

I have an IELTS test to write in two days and I been watching lots of videos and have not really made sense out of them. Fortunately for me today, I found you and you have redeemed me today and I know exactly what to do. Very clear and spot on. Thankyou sir

Thanks so much for this clear and concise video, David!

Thank you for your time to us

The way you explained the structure was simply amazing! Could you please upload a video on writing descriptive essays?

Perfect thank you so much you are a good 👨‍🏫 You really know how give information good teacher

Best explanation, thank you very much sir.

Thank you for your help and insight!

Why can’t every teacher be like you? I know this is very basic, but you helped me more than you will ever know. Something clicked.😃 Thank you!

You have saved the day! You are awesome 👏🏼 Thank you for this great explanation! I can now go do my essay with confidence 🤓

Thanks so much, as a mature student essay writing was beginning to look like my nemesis! This is the first time it's been explained clearly to me.

I have something important to say to with 3 rules: 1.Leave 2.Me 3.alone

Glad it helped. Thanks for taking the time to leave a supportive comment.

WOW!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! it is clear and simple to understand and to use in all my essays! You are the best!!Could I please send you my essay draft for review?

Still the best explanation of essays on youtube.

I always start writhing essay with introduction, thesis and then go on explaining. I think,for writing an essay,f v write about human, v should discuss,human aspects as sociological,philosophical, ideological, educational, economical, political, psychological, points etc accordingly.

That's great to hear, Julie.

kalala--great to hear!

Greatly useful! Thanks David

I'm at the start of my 4th year in uni, and even though I can ace exams and stuff, but I just pass my assignments. I've gone through college and passed all my assignments there, but university is different. I'm going to give this type of assignment writing a go for these 2 essays and I'll let you know if I improve.

Thank you Mr Taylor!

Thank you so much for making this video, this is going to help me a lot.

I thank you very much. Please make more videos on how to write an essay more in details.

Thank you for making it easy, it also took me 11years of school wondering what was going on!

very helpful sir, thanks for this . and I will be waiting for your next video............

Thanks for this video. Very clear explanation of a structure that can be applied to almost every academic essay!

Thanks! Continue your work in school. Learning and love = life.

"... as you do the YMCA song in a...WEDDING!" hahaha!

Thank you David, you are the best.

Thank you sir , that was agreat and effective explaination , but i have a question . are we obliged to add to this three supporting ideas some kind of examples ,facts or anecdote ? because our professors emphasize on that , and they give them a significant matter, unlike your lesson . waiting for your important reply , thanks in advance and sorry this was in 2012 and we now in 2019 hahahaah .

Thank You So Much @David Taylor. You helped me so much in my English class.

Thank you for taking the time out of your day to make the best essay guide on the net i could find you really saved me before exams. XD :) ;) :0

Your explanations are out of this world.I mean,you're just awesome and you deserve more subscribers. I want to subscribe to your channel many times.This is just👌 nice.

Thank you!

Your videos are awesome!

Thank you for teaching me an easier way to write an essay. I can take your teachings and apply them to so many different types of papers I need to write.

In the minute 8:45 I am doing a stop in the video to read the comments. I lose concentration wondering how he did this great teaching video. Thank for this, and please teach me how you do it.

Truely perfect! I had writers block and this helped me figure it out. Simple, Easy & to the point. I can build a larger essay with this frame.

Thank you so much Mr. David, that was a great help

After viewing your video I have learned how to write a conclusion . Thanks

Interesting comment. Are you familiar with the work of Robert Schwartz on pre-life planning? Give him a tickle on Amazon or Google if you're interested.

While it may seem overkil to Outline an Easy Esay, using the OutLine View in doing a Easy Essay helps show the power and usefulness of the outline view. The concepts of using a WordProceesor are still ignored. The text of writing is FLOWABLE. Your text flows into the page(s) that have been formatted. More complex documents benefit greater from the use of the Outline View, because it facilitates other fantastic features in Word and even other word processors.

Wow! Your explanation is one of the best I’ve seen. You made it very simple and easy to follow. I really appreciate it. I wonder if have a video on how to be a good reader? Thank you for this.

I'm understand very good

Thank you! Good to know it helped.

the best teacher that i ever studied in my live 10Q

Yes, but you would be better off watching my video or other videos on the compare/contrast essay, which is what the assignment is.

I understood this man more than any other teacher I ever had. Love how he explains everything simple and with clarity. Thanks

He's outstanding!

Does the marker check the rough draft?

Extraordinary method to compose an essay, thanks for sharing. Thumbs up!

And here I am, thinking that being in a classroom where I can see and speak to the teacher is better than being taught online. This is the best explanation I have ever seen even in all my years as a high school student and now a college student. Thank you very much for your video.

Thank you so much for your teaching, I just discover your channel. This is the best I watched so far.

I've been using this video for my entire semester of college level English. I have to say, this video helped me receive an A on all four of my essays. My professor said my essays were well written, clear, and organized. Thank you so much :)

Congrats!

U Help Me , Thanks Iam Writing My Essay latter For A scholarship Can U Review my Essay please ?

Thanks for taking the time to make your great comment, Diana.

Best concise explanation I've seen

Good luck, angel. Follow the formulas. Get a GED practice book and do the practice essays.

Thank you.

Genious, you are a designer; not a teacher. I love your 131 approach, particularly, the thesis statement (Topic + your opinion = thesis). Thank you.

thanks! this really helps me! :) You're a great teacher!

Holy sh*t, what an great explanation. Thank you so much. We haven't learned this way of the essay here in Germany. So, I'm going to rock my exams tomorrow.

geniuss
