The purpose of an introduction paragraph includes:

- To familiarize the reader with the topic
- To establish the focus of the essay
- To tell readers what the writer's position on the topic is

While an introduction can hint at the writer's opinion, showing the reader why the opinion is correct is typically part of the body of the essay, rather than the introduction.
