Rough Draft Personal Narrative Critique

1.  I noticed the writer was very descriptive; I liked how she used a simile when talking about the elevator door vs. the subway door and how they closed. I thought this was a creative way to help the reader picture what they were reading. They also did a good job of describing the items that didn’t make her happy like the Coach shoes, Miss Me jeans, and Sidekick phone. She also did a good job of sticking to the main point of the essay.

2.   While reading the essay I noticed some major improvements that could be made. Her spelling errors were repetitive and her sentence structure needed some help as well. She could also use some help rebuilding her paragraphs so the story would flow better. This essay doesn’t meet many of the grading rubrics. For example her organization, level of development and mechanics needed a lot of work.


3.   After reading this essay I would like to ask the writer how much time they took writing the paper. I would also ask if they had anybody peer edit the paper. Last I would ask where is this Harry Potter theme park in Chicago?
