essay写作技巧辅导[学姐分享]

essay写作有什么技巧？为什么申请国外学校一定要求写essay?学校要求撰写essay的初衷就是希望透过essay可以更了解申请人，因为各大学总是有数以万计的申请者，学校无法一一提供面试的机会。此外，essay提供大学一个评鉴是否该给予奖学金的渠道，并借此拒绝一些并不符合资格的申请人。essay的功用其实远比表面上看到的还多。本文为大家讲述了essay的相关要点及范文，可以参考一下。

一、essay写作步骤

1. 做个人剖析

万事开头难，在下笔之前对essay的整体构思是最难的。不妨先在脑海中将自己的个人特点和优势进行一波头脑风暴吧，深入地分析下自己发掘自己的闪光点。

2. 列大纲写初稿

当你把自己所有的特点或者想写的点确定好之后，就可以开始列大纲写初稿了。初稿不需要完美，只需要将所有的点表达出来就好，换句话说，就是不管多烂，先写一稿出来。

3. 丰富essay的三大块

essay通常分为开头、正文、总结三部分。开头一段引入自己的主题，正文结合事例表述观点，最后一段总结。、

4. 试着让自己的essay具体化

这里的具体化指的是在描述自己的个性特征是采取的事例一定要真实而具体。

5. 切入点要独特

比如，可以用有趣的故事或者跟学校相关的历史或趣味来切入自己为何适合这所学校。

6. essay要真实

无论essay的题目是问你的优点、特长、影响你的经历还是为什么要选择这所学校，回答的时候都要保证真诚。

7. 修改essay

essay写完之后就是无尽的修改了，同学、朋友、家长、老师等等都可以帮你修改，除了语法和书写错误之外，重点是问问他们看到essay的感受，是否能够真实表达自己的心声。

二、essay写作选题方向汇总

多数essay的题目是为了给予申请人展露个人特点的机会，也让大学申请部门清楚地了解申请人。反之，假使申请人没有认真看待并好好回答essay问题，也 减少了申请成功的机会。essay的题目可以粗略分为八个种类，通常申请人都有机会在以下八个种类中挑选适合自己的问题回答：

1、“为什么是我们?”这类的问题。如：为什么你想申请这所大学?为什么我们要接受你?

2、时事问题。如：现在世界上在某处发生的什么事情对你有什么影响?

3、“最重要的人”的问题。如：阐述一下在你人生中对你最重要的人?并且你从他们身上学到什么?

4、有关你人生时刻的问题。如：请写下在你人生中对你非常重要的时刻或事件?

5、人生关键时刻的问题。如：请讨论你生活中曾碰到的危机、你曾克服过的危机、假设你遇到了问题中提到的情况时应如何因应?

6、知识方面的问题。如：什么样的(请自行填上学科或是文化偶像)在课业上或是生活上给你启发?

7、目标问题。如：你人生的目标是什么?你要如何准备实现目标?

8、开放性问题。如：请按照自由意愿写下你想要写的东西。

在计划撰写策略前，申请人必须先知道自己的目标在哪里。申请大学虽然并不是一项科学，但是合理应用申请策略，有助于在整个申请程序及essay写作上获得高分，避免让无趣的写作和平凡的申请文件阻碍了成功申请之路。

三、essay写作范文参考

I have always loved riding in cars. After a long day in first grade, I used to fall asleep to the engine purring in my mother's Honda Odyssey, even though it was only a 5-minute drive home. As I grew, and graduated into the shotgun seat, it became natural and enjoyable to look out the window. Seeing my world passing by through that smudged glass, I would daydream what I could do with it.

我一直喜欢开车。在一年级度过漫长的一天后，我常常在妈妈的本田奥德赛(Honda Odyssey)汽车的发动机发出的呼噜声中睡着，尽管回家只有5分钟的车程。随着我长大，逐渐坐上了副驾驶座，看着窗外变得自然而愉快。看着我的世界从那片模糊的玻璃中掠过，我就会遐想我能做些什么。

In elementary school, I already knew my career path: I was going to be Emperor of the World. While I sat in the car and watched the miles pass by, I developed the plan for my empire. I reasoned that, for the world to run smoothly, it would have to look presentable. I would assign people, aptly named Fixer-Uppers, to fix everything that needed fixing. That old man down the street with chipping paint on his house would have a fresh coat in no time. The boy who accidentally tossed his Frisbee onto the roof of the school would get it back. The big pothole on Elm Street that my mother managed to hit every single day on the way to school would be filled-in. It made perfect sense! All the people that didn't have a job could be Fixer-Uppers. I was like a ten-year-old FDR.

在小学的时候，我就已经知道我的职业道路:我要成为世界的皇帝。我坐在车里，看着时光流逝，为自己的帝国制定计划。我的理由是，为了让世界平稳运行，它必须看起来像样。我会指派一些人去修复所有需要修复的东西，他们的名字很贴切。街上那个房子油漆剥落的老人很快就会换一件新衣服。那个不小心把飞盘扔到学校屋顶上的男孩会把飞盘拿回来。埃尔姆街的那个大坑洞，我母亲每天上学路上都要设法撞到的那个，将会被填平。这完全有道理!所有没有工作的人都可能是“修葺者”。我就像十岁的罗斯福。

Seven years down the road, I still take a second glance at the sidewalk cracks and think of my Fixer-Uppers, but now I'm doing so from the driver's seat. As much as I would enjoy it, I now accept that I won't become Emperor of the World, and that the Fixer-Uppers will have to remain in my car ride imaginings. Or do they? I always pictured a Fixer-Upper as a smiling man in an orange T-Shirt. Maybe instead, a Fixer-Upper could be a tall girl with a deep love for Yankee Candles. Maybe it could be me.

Bridget the Fixer-Upper will be slightly different than the imaginary one who paints houses and fetches Frisbees. I was lucky enough to discover what I am passionate about when I was a freshman in high school. A self-admitted Phys. Ed. addict, I volunteered to help out with the Adapted PE class. On my first day, I learned that it was for developmentally-disabled students. To be honest, I was really nervous. I hadn't had too much interaction with special needs students before, and wasn't sure how to handle myself around them. Long story short, I got hooked. Three years have passed helping out in APE and eventually becoming a teacher in the Applied Behavior Analysis summer program. I love working with the students and watching them progress.

When senior year arrived, college meetings began, and my counselor asked me what I wanted to do for a career, I didn't say Emperor of the World. Instead, I told him I wanted to become a board-certified behavior analyst. A BCBA helps develop learning plans for students with autism and other disabilities. Basically, I would get to do what I love for the rest of my life. He laughed and told me that it was a nice change that a seventeen-year-old knew so specifically what she wanted to do. I smiled, thanked him, and left. But it occurred to me that, while my desired occupation was decided, my true goal in life was still to become a Fixer-Upper. So, maybe I'll be like Sue Storm and her alter-ego, the Invisible Woman. I'll do one thing during the day, then spend my off-hours helping people where I can. Instead of flying like Sue, though, I'll opt for a nice performance automobile. My childhood self would appreciate that.

基本上，我的余生都可以做我喜欢的事情。他笑了，告诉我，这是一个很好的改变，一个17岁的女孩如此明确地知道自己想做什么。我笑了，谢了他，然后离开了。但我突然意识到，虽然我理想的职业已经确定，但我人生的真正目标仍然是成为一名“修补公寓”。也许我会像苏·斯道姆和她的另一个自我，隐形女人一样。我会在白天做一件事，然后用我的业余时间帮助别人。不过，我不会像苏那样飞，我会选择一辆性能不错的汽车。我童年的自己会很感激的。
