Coherence refers to the logical organization of an essay. A coherent essay
ties ideas together to flow smoothly from one sentence to the next and from one
paragraph to the next, making the essay easy to follow for the reader.
An effective way to revise for coherence is to use transitions, both within and
between paragraphs. Transitions help you move from one sentence or thought
to another.
