I need help with an essay?

Question

Do essays always have to be in green, yellow, red, blue format. Its annoying and i can't find a way to make it work.

Answer 1

That is a "learning tool" that some teachers feel is effective in teaching you how to structure an essay. If you find it very distracting and annoying (I do) check and see if it's necessary.

If it IS, here are a couple of ways to do it.

One, the obvious is highlighting. Highlight the paragraphs using "pink" for red.

The other is to write your essay on a word processor. Highlight the paragraphs and change the font colors. That's the way my kids do it -- after the fact! LOL
