The Fourteenth Step to Improving my Academic Writing

How I can brainstorm ideas and develop an outline?
I have never passed IELTS before; however, I am trying to prepare for it by using self-study course books. First time I knew about how planning your essay is important when I was reading about that exam. That is why I absolutely agree with statement “The outline is ninety five percent of the book.” (Jeffery Deaver) Couple times I met people who is thinking there is no point in planning essays. In result they texts were disorganized and bad developed when most of arguments are similar to stream of consciousness. Those texts sound like conversations than the essays, even now my text is looking like a talk, because I do not have enough time for outlining it. It can be a cause of poor language at all. However, sometimes students recognize that they spend too much time for planning their essays. What can be a reason of it? If students want to outline pretty quick then they have to develop a planning skill. It will be much easier to edit and proofread texts if those texts have a strong first drafts. I have found technique that to involve three steps for an efficient planning. The first stage is a brainstorming; when students just write down all data that they can remember. It works well for them, because students can separate the text for important statements and unnecessary sentences. Students can categorize them as quotations, arguments, ideas, ect. what can be really useful for developing their drafts. When students see all combinations of ideas, it allows them find out a main themes and build their arguments around. The next step is a creating an outline. When students look at their brainstorm ideas and understand that they know enough about subject the first thing that they have to do is a deleting many of them especially if it is not cooperate with the themes. An outline should be written in pretty simple language with useful bullet points. It will be good if texts will be divided in three parts: ten percent for the introduction, eighty percent for the main body and ten percent of the length for the conclusion indeed. The last stage is an expanding your ideas by detailing all bullet points. It can make your text more consistent and structured.

You should capitalize pronouns in titles in most cases.

Transition words are unneeded when you use a semicolon; Semicolons continue ideas in a unique way that doesn't require transition words.

FThe first time I knew about howthat I found out that planning your essay is important was when I was reading about thate exam.

I added "the" at the beginning because a "first time" can only happen once. The word "the" is used to refer to a singular and specific thing, so you would use it here.

I changed "knew about how" to "found out that" because you cannot 'know' in the past tense(which would be 'knew', so how you used the word) about something you have never discovered or found out before.

I changed the word "that" to "the" because "that" is only used when you have said what "that" was earlier in the sentence.

Thatis is why I absolutely agree with statemenJeffery Deaver's quote that “The outline is ninety five percent of the book.” (Jeffery Deaver) Couple". A few times I have met people who is thinkinghave thought there is no point in planning essays.
