Summarize this article in one sentence.
The conclusion should draw what you've said throughout the essay together, bringing your points home for the reader. Help the reader see how each main point you made establishes your position and proves your thesis statement. For instance, you might write, "A truly great country is one that celebrates differences and welcomes new ideas and perspectives. While immigration has some negative effects on a country, overall, allowing people from other countries to come in helps to spark new ideas and make the country a better and more interesting place to live. Rather than being a drain on society, immigrants are motivated to work hard and our citizens can only benefit from listening to their perspectives." Many students want to just take the introduction and rewrite it for the conclusion. However, your conclusion should be more than that. It should provide the reader with a summation of why the issue is important and why you think your position is the correct one. After you finish your initial draft, go over your essay carefully. Read it once to see if it makes logical sense. Does one idea flow to the next one? If it doesn't, take time to fix it by adding transitions. Rewrite any sections that aren't clear. Once you have the flow down, read it again to check for grammatical mistakes and typos. It can help to read it aloud, as it slows you down and forces you to read every word.
