| The type of English language essay you need to write depends on the assigned topic and is sometimes specified in the academized assignment. According to a reputable source - the book Successful Writing by Virginia Evans - it is customary to distinguish three main types of essays:
For and against. For and against essays
The name speaks for itself: you give arguments "for" and "against" some phenomenon. The outline of an essay in English is as follows:

Conclusion. Only here you express your attitude to the topic and make a conclusion.
Opinion essays. Opinion essays.
You express your thoughts on a given topic. It would seem that any essay is an expression of your own thoughts. What is the salt of this type of essay?

Consider all aspects of the issue, write your opinion and be sure to back it up with confident arguments.
