Reading a guide to writing essay pieces will be very beneficial for you, above anything else!

Writing a good essay introduction is very easy to learn. Before anything else, you first need a solid topic. You might want to see our entry on good introductions, as well as our entry about writing essays.

Step 1: Choose a Topic
This is very important because your topic will basically be the north star that you will follow. Imagine if the 3 Kings did not have a North Star to follow, then how would they find Jesus Christ!

Step 2: The hook
It is important that your readers get hooked to reading your masterpiece as early as possible. You can use a quote, anecdote, or anything actually to help them become interested in the essay that you are writing. Good introductions grab the readers' attention immediately.

Step 3: Write the first draft
Don't be afraid to commit mistakes! This is only a draft!

Step 4: Finalize
The last step of course is to finalize your introduction. If you followed steps 1 through 3 pretty well, this will be easy to do.
