What should I put in my ending paragraph?
It is really hard for me to figure out because my whole essay is about why I want one of the characters from the novel I read as a friend and what qualities I admire from the character. Now, I am in the ending paragraph and have no clue what I should put in it! I do not think my teacher would like the begining “overall” or “in conclucion”. PLEASE help! I would really appreciate it!

Right. Never use “in conclusion” or “to sum up” in a concluding paragraph. Go back to your introductory paragraph. Rephrase the last sentence which is your thesis statement and make that the first sentence in your conclusion. Then write a couple of sentence about the main points you covered going from least important to most important. Then rephase your them which is the first sentence in your introduction and end the concluding paragraph with it.
Good luck.

The general rule in an essay or speech is:
“First you tell ’em what you’re going to tell ’em. Then you tell ’em. Then you tell ’em what you told ’em.”
This is also a rule in advertising as well!
The first and last paragraph of the essay should sum up what the whole essay is about. “In this essay I’m going to show that . . . ” (although it’s good to make it less obvious than that). And at the end “So, you see, it’s really true that . . . ” (although, again, that is pretty obvious.)

The ending paragraph should simply be a summation and conclusion of all that came before it.
And you are at the ending paragraph, not in it.

Try this. ” to summarize this essay, I admire X because____.
I want X as a friend because______.” I hope this helps.
