Bill Drew’s book, The Secret DNA of Writing Essays–And Everything Else is probably the best tool for teaching school going children the most precise and competent manner of writing an essay. It’s really easy to understand and its teachings can be incorporated right from fifth grade.

Why Students Like It

Students find the novel approach to writing essays, which has been adopted here, refreshing and easy; essay writing is no longer a task for them, but something fun, which they begin to look for ward to. The reason? The novel approach.

Yes, anything new is generally appealing, or at least sparks interest. So as a teacher, you need to inculcate the right kind of interest in essay writing, with this fantastic tool.

Not just fourth and fifth graders, high school students and even college students can benefit from this book. Actually, just about anyone, including businessmen and ad makers too can use this for their punch lines. Why? This has an amazing message.

Rhetoric Spells Trouble!

School teachers, listen up. Writing essays is not merely about rhetoric. Yes, this is a fact! Now before you get all indignant on me, or rather, get completely disinterested in this book and its message, let me soothe your ruffled feathers.

Rhetoric is important, yes, but it is not the sole content of the essays which your students write. Yes, form and wording are important, but the basic matter and the idea should come across as well!

Rhetoric was advocated by the ancient Greeks! Now let’s be honest here, we’ve progressed a lot in the last two thousand years, so why aren’t our essay writing styles changing with the times?

Beats me! Apparently, Bill Drew was bitten by the same bug, when he wrote his e-book and lo and behold, my students are lapping it up everyday and I have observed a stark improvement in their writing styles!

But yes, implementing it, or rather, digesting it, in the beginning is quite hard, because it is completely different from what you have learnt so far. Before teaching high school students or college students the tricks of writing essays using this book, you need to re-learn essay writing again. But as a teacher, it shouldn’t be so hard! Take it from me, I’ve been there and done that!
