Here at Englist, every prospective student needs to take an assessment with one of our teachers before they can join a class.

How to write a Simple Persuasive Essay (SPE)

Understanding this, we have developed a system that trains new writers. We call it the Simple Persuasive Essay, or SPE, and it is just like it sounds – an easy-to-write persuasive essay.
