Essay's a-ok

Going into high school the thing i dreaded most was to have to do essays. But i soon found out that really they wern't that bad and that if you just do a little bit of preparation just by thinking about what your going to write the words flow easy as anything. The hardest thing about essays is taking something and reading it then putting it into words. but there is a very easy way around it thats actually doing the work, I cannot tell you how many times I've seen people try to do an essay without reading what they were supposed to and expecting it to work out. 
My literary analysis skills have improved by 10 fold since i have entered high school and i have one person to thank for this, Mr. Salme my 9th grade English teacher. In his class we had an assignment where he taught us how to write a 5 part paragraph and how to use commentary and concrete details then had us write about To Kill a Mocking Bird and it really helped with literary analysis because it made me think about everything that goes into writing about reading.
