Literary Essay Reflection

The two main things I feel like I can improve are my organization and language use.

What did you do well?

  • My understanding and interpretation of the poem were clear, and I could explain my thoughts distinctly. My understanding of the stylistic features used and their effects were also clear.

What do you still need to work on?

  • I still need to work on my organization and language skills. My transitions between body paragraphs were not smooth, and the language I used was informal (e.g., “we”)

What goals do you have for next time?

  • Refrain from using informal language
  • Coming up with a better way to integrate all of my paragraphs together to flow smoothly

How will you work to achieve them?

  • I will read more exemplary essays and learn how they organized their work and used formal language.
