In my experience with Essay 1, I kinda did struggle because I didn’t know if I was understanding the instructions correctly. I still have not gotten graded for my first essay so I don’t really know how I did. I did learn from a teacher perspective that it’s hard to follow an essay if it’s not organize. Something I did learn was how important it is to follow the instructions. The instructions are like the outline of the essay and making sure you are checking each point really does help to see what you miss and keep the essay organize. This is something I never really put much attention to and because of that I also struggled in how to start an essay. Something else I learned is how to make a proper thesis and the importance it has when making an essay and why it should not be a statement.
