How to Write a Process Essay Without Spending Much Time on It

Let's start with the basics. What exactly is the goal of a "Process Essay"?

A Process Essay is basically, in simpler terms, a How-To essay. In general a Process Essay should be simple and easy to write, but sometimes it can get confusing and redundant.

How exactly can you write a Process Essay easily?

The answer is simplify, simplify, simplify. You don't want to overwhelm yourself or your readers.

Brainstorming

When starting out your Process essay you want to make sure to choose a subject you know a lot about. Something that isn't too complicated for you and that you could easily explain to a friend or family member. This will just make everything so much easier for you, because you already know what to do and all you have to do is write it down. Choose a subject matter you feel comfortable with.

If you have a specific topic that you have to write about, do as much research on it as you can, and make sure you understand that topic well. After all you can't teach someone something if you don't know it yourself.

Write down a overview of everything and a simple step by step list of tasks that need to be completed. This will give you an outline for your essay so that you remember what you need to include in your text.

The Introduction

Like any other article or essay, you need a compelling hook. Instead of stating something like: "I'm going to be explaining how to study for a midterm", you want to write something that will make your readers connect to the subject. You want your readers to want to listen to your advice and read your article. You could say something like: "We all know that nauseating feeling and stress when it comes to midterms. The all nighters filled with coffee and energy drinks, papers everywhere all over your bedroom, feelings of despair. I know exactly how that feels, and I've found a few tricks and tips that make studying for midterms completely easier and a lot less stressful." Doing this will enable your readers to personally connect with the subject and feel even more interested.

The Development and Conclusion

You may think developing your Process essay is pretty straightforward, and it is if you stick to these guidelines.

  • Makes sure that you simplify each step as much as you can so it doesn't overwhelm your reader.
  • You want to make only the most important steps stand out from the others. If every one of them is of the same importance, then they are all going to seem unimportant.
  • Use different transitional words. Don't use the most common words like "first, second third" or "and then". Use a thesaurus to enrich the vocabulary of your essay.
  • Never use abbreviations in formal academic writing. Everything should be fully written out even if it seems a little repetitive and long.

To conclude your Process essay, summarize all the points together and draw attention to the finished product. You don't want to repeat yourself but simply pull the whole article together.

There it is. Now you know how to easily write a Process Essay. Just remember simplicity is the key!
