Personal Essays

1.) Some things the writers gave is to make sure your essay is something you care strongly enough about, topics that get you excited, and make it important and not boring.

2.) The writers says to put in a context that gives the reader insight to both the small moment and the wider perpective, also details that bring in the reader, so not boring.

3.) The suggestions the writer said i should use during writing the essay are ways to get your hook to attatch your reader, explain why you feel a certain way on the topic you chose, also use accurate facts, check spelling, and number, but in academic essays facts are better than opinions, but in personal essays opinion are better than facts.

Part 2:

1.) On the boxing photo i agree with the judges on saying how the referee looks like he is as well going to box, also how your focus doesn't really go to the action.

2.) I do not agree with the judges on the photo where the women are running and some of them falling, what i dont agree on is how they say you should crop it in, i think it looks fine how it is.
