You are an experienced academic writing coach. I need to write a [word count]-word [essay type: argumentative / analytical / discursive / reflective] essay for my [subject/module name] course at [undergraduate / postgraduate] level. The broad topic area is: [your broad topic].

Please generate 8–10 focused, debatable essay topics or angles within this subject area. For each one, briefly explain (1–2 sentences) what the core argument or question would be, and rate how controversial or nuanced it is on a scale of 1–5.

I'm writing an essay on [broad topic] for a [subject] course. The essay must be [word count] words and I need to present a clear, arguable position — not just describe the topic.

Help me narrow this down to a focused, specific angle that:
1. Can be argued within the word count
2. Has sufficient academic literature available
3. Has a clear "so what?" — why it matters

Suggest 3 narrowed versions of this topic, each with a suggested thesis statement and 2–3 key points I would need to cover.

Act as a creative academic thinking partner. My essay topic is: "[your topic]"

Create a detailed mind map in text format. Start with the central topic, then branch into:
- 4–5 major themes or dimensions of this topic
- Under each theme, 3–4 specific sub-points, examples, or potential arguments
- For each sub-point, suggest 1 type of evidence I should look for (e.g., statistics, case study, theoretical framework, historical example)

Format this clearly with indented levels.

I am writing a [argumentative / analytical / comparative] essay on the topic: "[your topic]". My position is that [briefly state your view/stance, even loosely].

Write 5 versions of a thesis statement for this essay. Each should:
- Be 1–2 sentences
- Be specific and arguable (not a statement of fact)
- Hint at the structure of the essay (the main points I'll cover)
- Be appropriate for [undergraduate / postgraduate / high school] academic writing

After generating the 5 versions, tell me which one you consider strongest and why.

Please critically evaluate this thesis statement I have written for an academic essay:

"[paste your thesis statement here]"

Assess it against the following criteria:
1. Is it arguable? (Not just a fact)
2. Is it specific enough? (Not too broad)
3. Does it signal the essay's structure?
4. Is it proportionate to a [word count]-word essay?
5. Is the language appropriately academic?

Give it a score out of 10, identify its weaknesses, and write an improved version.

You are a senior academic tutor. I am writing a [word count]-word [essay type] essay on the following topic:

Topic: [your topic]
Thesis: [your thesis statement]
Module/Subject: [subject]
Level: [undergraduate / postgraduate]

Create a detailed, logical essay outline. For each section include:
- Section name and approximate word count allocation
- The main point or function of that section
- 2–3 specific sub-points or pieces of evidence to include
- A note on how this section connects to the thesis

Structure: Introduction → [body paragraphs] → Conclusion. For argumentative essays, include a counterargument section.

I need to write a [word count]-word comparative essay comparing [Subject A] and [Subject B] in terms of [the aspects to compare].

My thesis is: [thesis]

Create two possible structural outlines:
1. A "Point-by-Point" structure (alternating between A and B for each criterion)
2. A "Block" structure (all of A, then all of B)

For each structure, show the full section breakdown with approximate word counts. Then recommend which structure is better for my thesis and explain why.

Write an engaging academic introduction for the following essay:

Topic: [topic]
Thesis: [your thesis]
Word count for introduction: approximately [e.g. 150–200] words
Essay type: [argumentative / analytical / reflective / discursive]
Subject: [subject]

The introduction must:
1. Open with a compelling hook — use a [statistic / provocative question / brief anecdote / bold claim — choose one]
2. Provide 2–3 sentences of relevant background context
3. Narrow to the specific scope of this essay
4. End with the thesis statement (which I have provided above — use it verbatim or refine slightly for flow)

Use formal academic language. Avoid clichés like "Throughout history..." or "In today's society..."

My essay is about: [topic]
My thesis is: [thesis]

Generate 6 different opening hooks for this academic essay — two of each type:
- Type A: A striking statistic or data point
- Type B: A thought-provoking rhetorical question
- Type C: A bold, arguable claim that establishes the essay's stakes

For each hook, write 2–3 follow-up sentences that transition smoothly into background context. Indicate which hook you think is most appropriate for formal academic writing and why.

Write one academic body paragraph using the PEEL structure (Point → Evidence → Explanation → Link) for an essay with the following thesis:

Thesis: [thesis]
This paragraph's main point: [the specific argument this paragraph makes]
Evidence to include: [paste in evidence, quote, or statistic — or write "suggest appropriate evidence"]
Subject area: [subject]
Target length: approximately [150–200] words

The paragraph must:
- Open with a clear topic sentence that directly supports the thesis
- Integrate evidence smoothly (don't just "drop in" a quote)
- Explain HOW the evidence supports the point (analysis, not description)
- Close with a sentence that links back to the overall argument and/or forwards to the next paragraph

Here is a body paragraph I have written for my essay:

[paste your paragraph]

My essay's thesis is: [thesis]

Please evaluate this paragraph and identify:
1. Whether the topic sentence is clear and directly supports the thesis
2. Whether the evidence is well-integrated and correctly attributed
3. Whether the analysis is sufficient (not just describing the evidence but explaining its significance)
4. Any logical leaps or unsupported claims
5. Whether the closing sentence links effectively back to the overall argument

Then, rewrite the paragraph incorporating your improvements.

I need to write the body section of a [word count]-word essay arguing that: "[thesis]"

My three main points are:
1. [Point 1]
2. [Point 2]
3. [Point 3]

Write all three body paragraphs in sequence. Ensure they:
- Build upon each other logically (not just independent paragraphs)
- Use transition phrases that show the relationship between arguments
- Each include a distinct piece or type of evidence
- Collectively amount to approximately [word count] words

Use formal academic register appropriate for [subject] at [level] level.

Here is my essay outline or draft:

[paste outline or draft]

My thesis is: [thesis]

Conduct an evidence audit. For each main argument or claim in the essay:
1. Identify whether it currently has sufficient evidence
2. Flag any claims that are asserted without evidence ("unsupported claims")
3. Suggest the specific TYPE of evidence needed (e.g., empirical study, government data, theoretical framework, expert opinion, historical case)
4. Suggest 2–3 search terms I could use in Google Scholar or JSTOR to find that evidence

Do not fabricate specific citations — focus on evidence types and search strategies.

I want to incorporate the following quote into my academic essay:

Quote: "[paste the quote]"
Author/Source: [author name, year]
My argument at this point in the essay: [what point you're making]
Citation style: [Harvard / APA / MLA / Chicago / OSCOLA]

Show me how to:
1. Introduce the quote with an appropriate signal phrase
2. Present the quote (in-text)
3. Follow the quote with 2–3 sentences of analysis that explain its significance to my argument
4. Format the in-text citation correctly

Provide two versions: one using a direct quote, one paraphrasing the same idea.

I am writing a short literature review section for my essay on [topic].

Here are the sources I have found:
[List each source: Author, Year, Key Argument/Finding — add as many as needed]
1. 
2. 
3. 

Write a 200–250 word literature review paragraph that:
- Synthesises these sources thematically (not as a list of summaries)
- Identifies points of agreement and disagreement between scholars
- Positions my own essay within this scholarly conversation
- Uses appropriate academic hedging language (e.g., "suggests," "argues," "contends")
- Is formatted in [Harvard / APA] citation style

My essay argues: "[your thesis]"

Please generate the 3 strongest, most academically credible counterarguments against this position. For each counterargument:
1. State the opposing view clearly and fairly (steelman it — present it as persuasively as possible)
2. Name the type of scholar or school of thought that would advance this view
3. Suggest a specific type of evidence they might cite
4. Then write a 100–150 word rebuttal paragraph that acknowledges the counterargument's validity while ultimately defending my thesis

Do not present weak or strawman counterarguments — engage with the strongest versions of the opposition.

I need to write a critical analysis of the following [text / theory / policy / argument]:

Title/Description: [name/description]
Author/Originator: [if applicable]
Context: [brief background]

Write a structured critical analysis that includes:
1. A brief, objective summary of the main argument or content (2–3 sentences)
2. Identification of 3 strengths — with explanation of why each is a strength
3. Identification of 3 weaknesses or limitations — with explanation and supporting reasoning
4. Overall evaluative judgement: what is the significance and validity of this work?

Use academic language appropriate for [subject] at [level]. The total length should be approximately [word count] words.

Write a strong conclusion for my academic essay. Here are the key details:

Thesis: [thesis]
Main argument point 1: [point 1]
Main argument point 2: [point 2]
Main argument point 3: [point 3]
Counterargument I addressed: [counterargument + your rebuttal]
Target word count for conclusion: approximately [150–200] words

The conclusion should:
1. Begin by synthesising (not just restating) the argument
2. Show how the three points collectively prove the thesis
3. Reflect on the broader significance or implications of the argument
4. End with a memorable, thought-provoking final sentence (not a question)

Do NOT introduce new evidence or arguments. Do NOT begin with "In conclusion" or "To summarise."

Here is my current conclusion:

[paste conclusion]

My essay's thesis is: [thesis]

Identify exactly what is wrong with this conclusion using these criteria:
- Does it merely restate points rather than synthesise them?
- Does it avoid clichéd phrases (e.g., "In conclusion," "As I have shown")?
- Does it include a reflection on broader significance?
- Does it end with impact?

Then rewrite the conclusion to address all weaknesses. Keep approximately the same word count.

You are a senior academic editor. Please conduct a structural edit of the following essay:

[paste your full essay]

Review and provide feedback on:
1. Argument logic — does the essay build a coherent, progressive argument? Any gaps or leaps?
2. Paragraph structure — does each paragraph have a clear point, evidence, and analysis?
3. Transitions — are connections between paragraphs and ideas smooth and logical?
4. Introduction — does it hook, contextualise, and deliver the thesis effectively?
5. Conclusion — does it synthesise (not repeat) and leave with impact?
6. Evidence use — is it well-integrated and sufficiently analysed?
7. Consistency — is the argument consistent throughout?

Provide specific, actionable feedback with reference to particular sections. Then give an overall assessment: what is the single most important improvement needed?

Please refine the academic tone and language in the following passage from my essay:
