Think of this as a guide from your favorite teacher or someone you trust to explain what the ACT essay is and how you can best prepare. Going from essay description and the three perspectives to choose from, how to analyze and plan your essay. It includes 20 essay examples that take you through the steps you learned on how to analyze, plan and write your essay.

This is a great resource for the ACT Essay, but also for college and your future professional life. As someone who worked in government - local and state - one is often required to analyze what is the real issue, weigh the pros and cons, put forth the arguments while listening to all sides, and decide (with or without others) on a conclusion/approach.

IMPRESSIVELY COMPLETE GUIDE
This guide not only offers a comprehensive approach to ACT essay writing: its strategies apply to all good essay writing, so it has wider usefulness. I'm an EFL teacher who tends to resist test-prep as results can be so uncertain, and because most of the published prep materials I've seen a) inspire little confidence and b) are very often plain annoying. I was happy to find that the Winning Strategies For ACT Essay Writing are clearly explained: with practice the whole process does indeed become less intimidating, and writing flows more smoothly. I also liked the range of topics represented by the15 Sample Prompts. Any student who works their way through the units is bound to feel confident that their writing (and time-management!) skills have improved noticeably, and to do well on the ACT. ( )

This book is perfect if you're struggling to understand the how-to of the ACT Essays. It is easy to follow, it comes with solutions, and it gives you a good step-by-step.
If you are a tutor, please get this book. It is a great tool to have, not only will it give you material to work with but also, you will be able to provide a full-on analysis of the solution. You will be able to help students with a more in-depth approach. ( )

I was given a free copy of this book by Vibrant Publishers and Dr Aimee Weinstein. First, thank you for the book. Second, this is excellent test prep book. It walks the student through the whole process of essay writing. It gives an example text subject and shows the student how to make pro and con arguments from the text as well as how to deconstruct what the text is about. It then shows the student how to set up the paragraphs for the essay. I have taught essay writing and I would have loved to have had a guide like this for my students. ( )
