Be creative

• The intro will make or break your essay. The key
  is to attract the reader's attention away from
  the TV and fully onto your essay. In the intro,
  be creative. Use an analogy, tell a personal
  experience story, whatever you do, start out with
  a something different!

3
Add emotion

• Any kind of emotion in the intro or conclusion
  (more likely in the conclusion) will get the
  reader to start thinking. Talk about how your pet
  dog has been your personal hero in your life
  trials. Or fall back on the ol' reliable--hope.
  Talk about the hope to one day create a more
  peaceful world. Talk about the hope to one day
  reach that elusive goal. Remember, there is
  always hope. If you talk about something briefly
  at the very beginning of your intro, refer back
  to it quickly in your conclusion. It'll remind
  your reader you know how to write an essay and
  you know what you're doing.

Utilize sentence structures to your advantage

• Start off sentences with the same start to add
  more emotion. Example "Sometimes the world gets
  too out of hand. Sometimes the world just needs a
  better hero. Sometimes, I can be that hero.

5
When in doubt, use movie quotes, songs, famous
people (i.e. US presidents, class presidents,
etc.), or well-known sayings

• Either you can outright quote them, such as "If
  we don't come together right now, on this
  hallowed ground, we too will be destroyed"
  (Remember the Titans). Or you can change it up
  slightly to show off your creativity, such as
  "The grass actually ISN'T greener on the other
  side.

6
Use at least somewhat decent vocabulary

• By using too many simple words, the reader may
  not notice it at first, but he will notice your
  lack of strong vocabulary. Insert a few good
  words here and there, and if you're slightly in
  doubt on what a complicated word means, just
  don't use it. Misusing a word can rip your essay
  into pieces in the reader's mind.
