P- Point: Clearly state what point you are putting forward, make sure it relates to question.

E- Evidence: Give evidence to support your point with facts, dates, quotes etc. 

E- Explanation: Go further and explain the implications of what you have said on the question. Use the phrase 'This shows that' to give a pointer to examiner that you have understood the quetion and go into further detail on it.
