Tips to Write a Comparison Essay

The first and foremost thing to keep in mind, writing an essay is the flow. And it becomes all the more critical, if it is a comparison essay. The essay should have a logical flow, so as to induce people to read it at a length. If they will feel that it is just bits and pieces kept together, the charm of your essay will be lost.  

As, compared to writing a normal essay, writing a comparison essay is complicated and requires both serious efforts and time. For writing a structured comparison essay, there are two ways to proceed. One is block pattern and the other is point pattern. Both are easy to follow and will surely, help you write a beautiful comparison essay.  

A block pattern is very easy to follow. All you have to do is to block, all the points of contrasts and comparisons. All you have to do is, to compile one piece of information about a thing first, before proceeding to the next. For instance, if you are to compare and contrast two houses and their make, proceed in the following manner:

1st block: discuss about the first house and its features like color, design, location and other added features
2nd block: discuss about the second house and its features like color, design, location and other added features
3rd block: discuss the similarities in the two houses and their features
4th block: discuss the dissimilarities between the two

Make sure, that you make a separate paragraph for every sub-topic. This will add clarity to your comparison essay. The biggest advantage of using the block pattern is that, you get the chance to talk about a thing, at a one go. But, it is advisable to use this method, when you have ample and relevant information about both the topics. This may, look weird if you have sufficient information on one topic and hardly have data to write about the second.  

For writing long comparison essay, it is always advisable to use point format. This method allows you to have a credible movement between various topics. This method should be preferred when; you have sufficient material on one topic and not on the other. Making use of point pattern is quite simple. For instance, keeping the above topic in mind and making use of point pattern you must proceed in the following manner: 

1st paragraph: discuss the location of the two houses
2nd paragraph: discuss the color and design of the two houses
3rd paragraph: discuss the added features of the two houses
While writing a comparison essay, connectors and transitional words are of prime significance. Words like: though, nevertheless, however, too, but are few of the words that can be used to make a comparative study between the two things.  

Point pattern makes the essay interesting and structured. At times, block method is quite uninteresting and boring. Besides, this make sure you give a logical introduction and a conclusion to make your work authentic.
