  2. This type of essay is frequently assigned in school. • It requires telling a personal story that has some meaning to the author. • Usually narrative essays describe topics that have connection with class themes. • Let’s learn how to select a topic and write a good narrative essay.

  3. STEP 1. SELECT A STORY THAT DESCRIBES SOME THEME OR TOPIC. • There are two main elements of a narrative essay: a story and following analysis of it. This is why your topic should describe a certain issue or theme. • By using your personal experience, you describe your idea and the main point. In most cases, students do not require to conduct a research in order to write a narrative essay.

  4. STEP 2. MAKE SURE YOUR TOPIC FITS THE THEME. • Students receive prompts from their school teachers. • They need to create their topics based on the prompts and ensure they fit the assignment. • You should always read your prompt very carefully to understand the task.

  5. STEP 2. MAKE SURE YOUR TOPIC FITS THE THEME. • Otherwise your story about how you managed to escape from a desert island is not going to be good. The most common themes for narrative essays include: • How you managed to overcome adversity • How your priorities in life have changed • The most interesting experience you have had

  6. STEP 3. MAKE AN OUTLINE. • Think about the story you want to tell and try to recall all important details it might have. • Define when the story starts and ends. • Make your story as particular as possible.

  7. STEP 3. MAKE AN OUTLINE. • This means you should not write about your school year and take the first day in class as the starting point. • For example, go straight to the drama and describe what failure you had.

  8. STEP 4. BE CONSISTENT. • It is important to remember that the use of “I” is not just justified but required. • Do not switch between different points of view in your story. • There has to be only one writer and this is you.

  9. STEP 4. BE CONSISTENT. • Besides, make sure you tell your narrative in past tense. • For example, you should not write “Larry and I visited the theater every Sunday, just like we do every week.” • Instead you should write “Larry and I visited the theater every Sunday.”

  10. STEP 5. DESCRIBE CHARACTERS AND SETTING. • The most important character in the story is you. • But you have to describe who else was there with you. • Descriptions of people might include their physical appearance, clothes and other attributes. • Try to make a sentence describing each character.

  11. STEP 5. DESCRIBE CHARACTERS AND SETTING. • The setting is as important as the characters in a narrative essay. • You have to describe where the action took place: in a home, in the streets and sometimes even the town or country.

  12. STEP 5. DESCRIBE CHARACTERS AND SETTING. • Try to recall as many details about the place as you can. • It is a very important part of your story so you might even include some extra details about it.

  13. STEP 5. USE VIVID DETAILS. • Describing details is essential in writing. • Even boring classroom can be made interesting if the writer finds some unique elements and uses right kinds of details. • One of the things that propel your story is your details.
