- Begin writing your summary with a sentence naming the writer and article title and stating the essay's main idea. Then, write your summary, omitting nothing important and striving for overall coherence through appropriate transitions.
- Be concise, using coordination and subordination to compress ideas.
- Conclude with a final statement reflecting the significance of the article -- not from your own point of view but from the writer's.
- Throughout the summary, do not insert your own opinions or thoughts; instead summarize what the writer has to say about the subject.
