Paragraph list

As an online tutor, you will most likely work through an intermediary, that is a company that offers to connect you with students.
As if life as a student isn't difficult enough, you have to consider getting a job too.
However, on the other hand, getting that job means accumulating more practice and being able to supplement your income.
Online tutoring is one of the more popular options students turn to in order to make some money and boost their knowledge.
Working as a student can seem taxing and even scary if you haven't got much experience.

First sentence: Why this is the first line? This paragraph is the first sentence because it introduces the main idea about the challenges students face. It does not refer to any previous information and sets the stage for the topic of working while studying. This follows the rule of Topic Sentence. Why other lines are not chosen? Paragraph 2 starts with 'Working as a student...' which makes it dependent on the first idea. Paragraph 3 starts with 'However...' which is a conjunction and needs a previous sentence for context. Paragraph 4 starts with 'Online tutoring...' which is specific and does not introduce the topic. Paragraph 5 starts with 'As an online tutor...' which also assumes prior knowledge.

Concluding sentence: Why this is the last line? This paragraph is the last sentence because it provides a conclusion about online tutoring. It explains how students can find work as tutors, wrapping up the discussion. This follows the Conclusive Words rule.

Paragraph pairs:

  • Pair 1 (Paragraph 1 → Paragraph 2): The second paragraph connects to the first because it continues the idea of the difficulties students face. This follows the Logical Order rule.
  • Pair 2 (Paragraph 2 → Paragraph 3): The third paragraph connects to the second by showing a contrast. It explains that despite the difficulties, getting a job has benefits. This follows the Contrast rule.

  • Pair 4 (Paragraph 4 → Paragraph 5): The fifth paragraph connects to the fourth by explaining how online tutoring works. This follows the Logical Order rule.
