The conclusion summarizes your general ideas, providing a final look at your topic. Your conclusion should be three to five sentences long. After writing your opinion, you may think that you have finished your essay. This is not true. You have to pay attention to all the small details. Check the order of your paragraphs. Your strongest arguments should be in the first and last paragraphs inside the body, and the rest in the middle. Also, make sure your paragraph order makes sense. If your essay describes a process, such as how to make a large chocolate cake, make sure your paragraphs are in the correct order. This is what an essay writer does. See if your essay meets the requirements of the teacher or competition organizers. Finally, review what you wrote. Reread your essay. Make sure the order of the sentences is fluid and add phrases to help connect thoughts or ideas. Check your essay for grammar and punctuation errors
