It could be. But you have to use it at the right time. I would use it more near the end of the essay, like when you're wrapping up and have to restate points that you've made throughout the paper. It also depends on what the essay is for. High school essay? College? I suppose if you were also leaving one point and you wanted to restate you thesis ultimately would work as well.

For example, if I were writing an essay about whether or not to get a dog and had to write a persuasive paper convincing my parents toward my point of view, my thesis for my first support would probably be something along the lines of, "Dogs are extremely smart." My wrap up for that paragraph might be, "Ultimately, dogs are brilliant animals."

Or, same scenario, I could write my thesis for the overall paper as, "Our family definitely needs a dogs." and then in my conclusion I would say, "Ultimately, a dog is the perfect pet for our family."

I know the prompt seems amateur-ish. I couldn't think of a better on :P Hope this helps :) Lemme know how you do on your paper :)

Yes. For example: First, I have to plan a party. Then, I would need to get all the supplies. Now, I invite my friends. Finally, I will enjoy my party.
