Essay Feedback

Dear Y13
After looking at most of your essays now I have a few general points to make.

  1. Have a clear topic sentence. What is your paragraph about? Each paragraph should have an introductory sentence that says what your paragraph is about; this could also link to the question.
  2. You need to have extended analysis of quotations. I can't underestimate the importance of this. It's necessary now and it's necessary in the exam. Say as much as you can. 
  3. Explore how your quote links to Marxism and any potential links to Them and Uz
  4. In your analysis, can you link to any context. Don't do this as a mini-biography of Harrison, but as an integrated response to your quotation.
I didn't start out with the intention of these being AO1, 2, 3 and 4, but that's how it happened...
Leave a comment if you have any questions.
