hi Bouazza...

Writing a best descriptive essay....in my opinion...is the essay which incorporates both description and narration...in fact this is the thing what you will be doing all the time...you will have to use descriptions in narration and narrations in description....there are many essays on this forum which are an example of such type of writing...i suggest you to consult them

THANKS...

Welcome! I think you should plan to make it a 5 paragraph essay. That means you will have 3 body paragraphs, and intro, and a conclusion.

Start by writing a PARAGRAPH TOPIC SENTENCES for each of the three body paragraphs. Each topic sentence will express one of the three ideas in the essay.

Those three ideas will all combine to make one main idea for the essay.

So, what is the main idea about this person? Can you capture the essence of the person in a single word?
