So, you should clearly explain the content of the reading you have done and explain why and how you feel this supports the conclusion you want to defend in your essay. Sometimes students are afraid that if they write in a clear and simple way, their tutor will think they are simple minded. This is not so. If you clearly and correctly explain the material in the readings, you are almost certain to do at least reasonably well. If your prose is obscure, convoluted and opaque you stand a real risk of being penalised.
Students sometimes attribute to tutors and lecturers almost superhuman powers of comprehension.
While it is very flattering to us, it is not correct. Remember , if something you have written seems a bit unclear to you, it will probably seem extremely unclear to anyone else. It is worth taking a lot of effort to express yourself clearly. Of course, clarity is not all there is to good expression. The main thing we are looking for in expression is the ability to effectively communicate ideas from one mind to another.
