Tips For Writing a Persuasive Essay:
· Use a pleasant and reasonable tone in your essay. Sarcasm and name-calling weaken an argument.
Logic and fairness will help to keep it strong.
· Make your best argument your last argument.
· Select your words carefully, have them evoke an image.
Persuasion is about appealing to all the emotions of the reader.
The use of adjectives and logic will convey a vivid picture and will make the reader believe you and that you write as an authority on the subject.
· No personal pronouns and no I think, I feel, I believe as these phrases all weaken your perspective because the reader is less likely to think you are writing from fact than fiction.
· No personal experiences unless they are generic meaning everyone has them and can relate to them and they convey a vivid and immediate image.
