I have spent a lot of time focusing on developing strong essays that master the area’s for improvement. Since the beginning of the year, I have worked and developed essays from the help of my peers providing positive feedback that only helped me in my case. I also think that my comments were beneficial to my peers as they enjoyed the comments I provided and took my advice when it came to changing things around and rewording certain paragraphs. My peers have done a nice job providing me the feedback I need in order to keep improving my essay and preparing it for the final draft. I made sure to question the writer and comment on what I believe did not fit where and why. It is important as a writer and reader to focus on the claims and the sentences that connect to the thesis, because without all of it the essay is lacking what it needs in order to convey ideas properly. Attached below are examples of essays in which I have commented upon as well as some comments from my peers. Their positive criticism has only helped me and I appreciate the time with the comments that I received.
