There's a technique that you can use to get better at essay writing: But first, we must look at the problems: 1st: Ideation, What are you gonna be writing about? And what are the points you are going to support? 2nd: Structuring, What is the order of what we're gonna be writing about? How do we structure it? Tips: 1. Increase your "elegance", read a lot of difficult books, develop that analysis skill and try and copywriting styles that you enjoy, because you're trying to find your own style that seems genuine to you. Most problems lie in the approach, either because of procrastination due to feeling overwhelming writing without planning it out in layers, as well as structuring your points. This is why it's important to not write in a linear approach as it's less efficient than doing it in layers. What are layers? Stage 1: Before we do layers, make sure that you understand the concept, because then it will make it MUCH easier to allow you to write your essays. A way to conceptualize is to look at the main themes and how do they connect with each other, it's similar to mind mapping connections between different concepts. And a pro tip, look into the author's background. The themes and examples used in the story will probably be inspired by the author's real-life experiences. Stage 2: Start with the questions, questions lead to points that allow you to structure the essay. Example I made: What is a phone? Where did it come from? What does the research say about it? How is it important? Why is it controversial? What are you stances on the topic? Now with this outline your brain doesn't have to be as scared because now you have a question that's easier to answer which you'll brain will naturally focus on. Stage 3: Answer the questions from the outline, let's say for a research article use some evidence to explain the text.
I almost stopped watching after point one because I thought: "well I know this, I should just start my paper". I am glad that I stayed for your second and third point. You blew my mind again. You are the god of learning!
The "Ask Questions" part is so helpful. I didn't know I was missing it the whole time and I had a hard time fighting my procrastination because I didn't know how I'm going to organize all these arguments into an essay. Thank you for making this video
I’ve also noticed that spacing out the layers into smaller deadlines improves writing quality (and helps with manageability if you’re intensely busy). Example: Start now on a paper due in 2 weeks by setting checkpoints on concepts/research, questions, draft, and revisions/editing all the way to (or before) the deadline.
One thing that I've found that helps is to start with the bibliography and works cited, then go to writing the essay. This is because I always hate those bits, and if I'm doing the essay last minute (yes, I know that's what this video is partially designed to help prevent, but even so) I always forget to leave enough time to include them properly. If I wind up not using one of the works that I put on there in the beginning, I can just delete it. If I find another as I go on, adding one additional source isn't as intimidating as having to do a whole bunch at once. Some people would argue that this wastes time, but for me it's a method that just makes it easier to start.
I highly recommend using a citation manager for that. It will save you a lot of time. Zotero, Mendeley and Endnote are all great I heard, but I personally like Zotero. You can generate a bibliography within seconds.
Great video. What I like is you are taking advice which is commonly available and then taking us through how to apply it specifically. That really helps. All time management article's talk about breaking up a big task into smaller steps. Yes. But how? Your approach is great
@@JustinSung Hi, do you read all the research paper before you start writing? I find it difficult to write essays as I read because I just end up paraphrasing everything which also includes citing everything and I end up with no original thoughts in my essay. What do I do?
I keep having anxiety when I think about the number of pages I need to write. I keep thinking, "how on earth am I going to write 12 - 15 pages about this research question?". I will most definitely give your tips a try.
Make sure your topic is broad enough with multiple subtopics to be able to address. Then flesh out each topic with subtopics, history, current events and how they relate
Thank you this was really helpful. Something I struggle with when writing academic essays is how much to explain or 'hold the readers hand'. I know that the majority of academic writing needs to be analysis but I get stuck, especially in the theory sections, considering how much to explain theories or schools of thought and I get worried that I either spend too much time with explanation or not enough.
Personal notes Step 1: conceptualise -> really understand the themes and the main theme and how do they connect/interact with each other Pro tip: read some background on the author Step 2: Write down questions that if answered will form your main arguments Example at 10:20 Step 3: Answer the questions-> after answering these questions will form your main arguments and support these with evidence
I'm definitely missing writing those questions, my writing process is complete chaos lol, I usually start with outlines and jotting down my thoughts but in the middle of my writing the logic/line of thinking I'm going for starts showing its flaws, so I start changing the order of my arguments, trying to put the puzzle together and waste so much time, going to try and really work on step 2
Summary (Notes to self) Way to think of it: - Think of way that points to each other for effective flow in the essay "Talk to the Topic" by: - asking questions - think of the author's perspective - research author - Made something meaningful to the Them Mimic an author (maybe your favorite)
Thank you for this great video. This is really the way that also works out for me. Defining the main points and questions at the beginning helps me maintain an organised way of thinking and dealing with the main theme more easily. That is also helpful when you work with a team.
What I do now is to do bullet points about the things that I wish to write about. Get down my ideas, and then organize the points and ideas to flow well. After that, writing the essay is easier.
My level of essay writing is somewhere of a 7th grade kid and lets just say that I'm older than that 😂 However this video helps to clarify a lot of fogginess I have when attempting to write an essay. Thank you very much!!! Subscribed.
Your relation based learning method surpass active recall and spaced répétions, you are the only one youtuber who are talking about it, can you do more video about it, I see your other channel: I can study or something like that, and I know there is already a lots of content about it: but I think this is so a large subject, that you can always create new content
Great video. Appeals to me since I want to be a good writer. Also, this video is a lot more upbeat than the previous one. I was a big fan of your reserved nature in the videos, but this will work too! Keep it up.
I have flair in writing and fluidly communicating with the reader's perspective. But my writings shows knowledge gaps, it is not exhaustive and often too wordy. Ur headings/questions show that it was my incompetence and knowlege gaps which prevent me from writing well. I will try to fill those gaps while learning the topic.
Wonderful video, I really appreciate your work, Dr. Justin! :). You are entirely correct about the situation that occurs when trying to put topics together and find flow and degenerate into chaos - you described exactly the frustrations I was having with my papers. Thank you for sharing your words of wisdom.
Thank you Justin for such comprehensive and concise explanation. As non-native student who never got expose to writing an essay, still learning grammar and essay writing.. I'm curious how people elaborate their paragraph? Hope one day could attend ur course!
So what’s crazy for me, is that I definitely thought of all of these, but I was getting tripped over about the order of them, on my own I figured out that I should - understand the topic - identify the main points - identify how the points interact But from there, I got stuck, because I couldn’t understand how to structure the points, and when I couldn’t decide on how I wanted to structure the points, I’d get anxiety paralysis or decision paralysis and just stop I tried the questions and answers, but when I did it, it felt very mechanical and sort of “seperate” to the flow of an essay and I again got stuck on how to do it The break through here for me, was the suggestion to ask questions to the article, that come up naturally, then answer them, and then read it as the reader and organise the answers in a way that flows and makes sense THAT is life changing advice And this was a hard pill to swallow that I needed help because I was so used to getting amazing grades on essays but then I had some adversity in my life and it affected my psyche so extremely I suddenly lost the ability to prioritise and organise, while still being able to think critically, which was so so frustrating, but admitting I need help and seeking that help out, is really affirming and comforting not only because I can see now that I really was on the right track, but that just because we are good at something and then suddenly aren’t for any reason, doesn’t mean we can’t get back there. And it’s comforting to know I’m not the only one who needs help sometimes. Great channel thank you ❤
Wow your points and style of expressing and explaining them are amazing - thank you for helping me tackle my assignment in a much more relaxed and logical way! I've just subbed 👍🙌😍
Hello, glad to see you're still posting.I have a question, does your IcanStudy course replace your finding gravity course? If not, what is the difference between the two courses?
OMG i have been watching videos and reading book about writing, and this one helps the most! Would you suggest some book for further reading about writing? We need more about writing lol
I was being way to "elegent" in my writing once, doing content suggestions and people caught onto how the writing was shallow when i couldve rather, just focused on the mechanics or raw material and it wouldve been conveyed in an easier way to understand. I think elegancy is important when presenting abstract ideas that support what youre trying to get at
Hi, do you have more vidoes about academi writing? this video was really really helpful !!! please share i need a video specially writing a literature review as well as how to write a syenthesized paragrpahs ..etc especially if your having over 200 sources and how to collect these information and how to start writing a cohesive writing that sounds like a conversation ..etc THANKS
Where I live you have a test in which you gotta write a text in a specific topic they give you. However, in this test there's also 90 multiple choice questions and the biggest issue is the time constraints
Thanks Justin, this was extremely helpful! Please could you also make a video about writing more elegantly? It would be incredibly useful to know the process for this.
i actually am good at writing essays and writing in general but it takes a while to formulate my ideas into words which makes me wonder if i’m even a good writer at all. i had to write three essays over the summer and i wanted to get it over with as soon as possible but i found myself unable to put my ideas into words. and beginning this year i want to spend less time perfecting my essays because it’s too time consuming that way. i hope this helps
You have no idea how much stress that second point took off my shoulders. I went from taking 15 hours to write a 5 page paper to 10 for a 6 page paper!
How do you start determine the questions per section before knowing what sections goes where ? Is that the main themes per sections? Not a student btw just relearning English & writing again 😭
4:53 think more about getting a good understanding of the main themes and the main principles in the text that you're reading and especially how do those main themes connect and interact with each other
Dear Justin, great tips! Can you please elaborate on why "Conceptualizing" should be the first step? Wouldn't it be enough to start with questions? In other words, would it be possible to do Question - Answer - Conceptualization?
I tried this for a philosophy essay that was worth 40% of the grade for that subject, ended up dodging/procrastinating a LOT on getting that all-important base level understanding... and then when I went about turning my plan into an essay I started feeling the need to change the answers I had previously wrote to my own questions... then the structure I had planned out started to collapse once I had begun to change things around. so it ended up coming down to the last five minutes and I didn't have any time to polish the rough spots... But I managed to snag an HD! So there's kinda something to it. Maybe?
Can someone please guide me with essay writing? First time writing a uni level essay. I am unsure how to start. Is it like writing a story all my ideas but using references to back up my creativity? Im sweating with this Essay writing
Do you use mind map planning for essays, is there anything that helps with relevancy when you are normally learning associatively where there are so many interactions and links for keeping to word limits?
The key here is good organisation through "chunking". Trying to find connections and relationships between individual ideas is going to be overwhelming. You need to group the ideas based on common themes or causes or reasons for importance (or any other logical grouping). This chunking is one of the hardest steps but the more you practice the easier it gets. Once you have clear chunks, finding how to express it concisely isn't too difficult. Mostly the problems are when you don't know how to get through each individual point and relationship concisely, which happens due to insufficient chunking.
My issue is that I am so slow with writing. I can realistically write 100 words an hour which for a postgraduate course and assignments is a lot of hours
Hey, I have started practicing inquiry based learning (as you explained) a few days back, and I am not seeing any major improvements just yet (or maybe I am not using it correctly). Will I be able to get better at it if I keep on practicing it (I'm already starting to lose a bit of my motivation tbh)
Yup it takes time and the way you need to follow quite a precise set of instructions. Many types of inquiry based learning do not work. The version I teach is very very very specific. If you need the step by step, join the course!

Ayyy I'm really happy to finally see another vid from your channel!!
Production value on point, looking much better than the older vids
Oh this is pretty ironic - you mentioned that there's a lot less editing in your community post
But I do prefer this style personally
That's great to hear. Doing it this way is much faster and easier for me.
Ayo Beak?!

Very interesting, I will definitely be trying to apply these concepts
I was about to subscribe then you said committed. I have commitment issues 😂 jk loved the explanation ❤
thank you so much I have an assignment due and I was struggling to write my assignment
fav point (9:05 ) - Easier to extend on a list of questions rather than a list of points.
great video

How do i write an essay that is not based on an arguement
I tried this for a philosophy essay that was worth 40% of the grade for that subject, ended up dodging/procrastinating a LOT on getting that all-important base level understanding...
and then when I went about turning my plan into an essay I started feeling the need to change the answers I had previously wrote to my own questions...
then the structure I had planned out started to collapse once I had begun to change things around.
so it ended up coming down to the last five minutes and I didn't have any time to polish the rough spots...
But I managed to snag an HD! So there's kinda something to it. Maybe?
Thank you this was very helpful
Thank youu thank youuuu😭😭😭😭
Phenomenal. Thank you
Good stuff
3 steps to write essays faster and procastinate less :
1. Conceptualise
2. Start with questions
3. Answering the questions

I write essays and other tasks for students.
Do you use mind map planning for essays, is there anything that helps with relevancy when you are normally learning associatively where there are so many interactions and links for keeping to word limits?
