こんにちは、 アカデミックエッセイにする必要があるという点で、これまでの回答者様と重なるのですが、 No4様のIから始まるエッセイが日本人に多いという指摘には私も同じです。 分かりやすい英語で書かれたエッセイの書き方のページを見つけました。 http://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/esl/eslaudience.html そして、No1さんが仰るin conclusionとかというのは、エッセイ用語で、Transitionsと呼ばれていて、アカデミックエッセイでは重要です。 ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿引用＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ To supply movement within paragraphs and between paragraphs, you must use transitions. Without transitions, an essay is jarring to read and may cause confusion to your reader. ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ http://bloodredpencil.blogspot.com/2009/09/academic-essay-3-importance-of-body.html Transitions/Connectorsとして、上記のURLの最後の方にリストが幾つか有りますから参考にしてください。 とくに質問者さんの役に立ちそうなのだけ取り上げると、 理由を述べるときに： ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿引用＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ Cause/Effect: accordingly, as a result, because, consequently, for, hence, so, then, therefore, thereupon, thus. ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ http://bloodredpencil.blogspot.com/2009/09/academic-essay-3-importance-of-body.html 結論を述べる： ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿引用＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ Summary: in any event, in brief, in short, in sum, on the whole, to sum up. ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ http://bloodredpencil.blogspot.com/2009/09/academic-essay-3-importance-of-body.html (こちらの方が、in conclusionよりも大学生らしい。） 又、ご存知だと思いますが、質問文中のfinallyは結論を述べる時に使いません。最後の理由/視点を述べる時に使うので、結論ではなく本論の中に入ります。 以上指摘ばかりですいません、エッセイの見本が多少載っているページを見つけました、ご参考になれば。 http://www.toeflessays.com/category/resource-center/sample-essays では、頑張ってくださいね。

お願いします。下記の文章はentrance essayです。 I want to be a spiritually advanced person and contribute to people’s happiness. My motivation to apply BYUH is to learn from those who have the same values as I have. I am fascinated by your motto “ENTER TO LEARN, GO FORTH TO SERVE,” I want to serve people. I believe that BYUH is the best school for me to learn how to serve others. I have a child who is one year old and whose name is ○○. It means God’s messenger. He likes people; with his arms spread, he always begs someone to hold him up, his smile makes people comfortable. He is already offering love to people as God’s messenger. Being able to stay near temples and have church friends gives me a good chance to nurture him. Nothing is more valuable than this for him. Additionally, I am temporary a worker, and my job is unstable. Therefore, I want to remove myself from this situation. Fortunately, my wife’s father owns a company and has some products to improve environmental issues. I want to disseminate his ideas worldwide and contribute to the world as a BYUH alumnus. For these reasons, I want to enroll at BYUH.(199) 知り合いのTESOL関係の方に見てもらったところ1点指摘されました 指摘箇所：3段落目のcomfortable 指摘内容：Word choice. This is strange to say. 「彼の笑顔が人々を慰める（癒す）」と言いたいのですが his smile nurses people's soulと言えますでしょうか？ ※以前からエッセイを助けていただいている皆様へ このBYUHのTESOLの方から次のようなアドバイスをもらったため上記のようなエッセイに変えました you may want to add some details to your personal story about your son and wife. Using their names and a few personal details may make this paper more personal because you will sound more like an individual with a real life. This personal touch will attract the readers of your entrance essays.

To sale a $3,000 water cleaner, I would often visit more than 100 houses everyday. At that time, Japanese were not only so interested in that device but also they usually drank tap water.

I want to try to do something physical labor, such as carrying and cleaning. After graduation, I want to use my language skills so physical labor may give me very important experiences and great opportunity to know better about constitution of our society. Moreover, I want to learn many skills which aren’t taught at my college. Secondly, I will challenge traveling alone one or two months. At first, I want to visit Korea to see my friends living in Seoul, and then I directly go to Tianjin China by a ship from Incheon to visit another hometown where I spent couple of years. Budget permitting, I will fly to Eastern Europe and Turkey to walk around historical and religious cities, if not, I will go Southeast Asia to see ethnic culture. These experiences should be the best way to know the world, to practice language skills and to be a student who can contribute to internationalization. おねがいします
