If At First You Don't Succeed...

Well, there are some minor errors in my essay that I could have easily avoided. I should have put my header in the upper left corner (I'll never make that mistake again!). I also put the name of the chapter instead of the page number for one of my quotes.
My main strength in this particular essay was being able to make a claim and backing it up with evidence. I referred back to the main point of my essay a few times so that the reader could easily understand what I was trying to prove.
Also, having a good title made my essay more interesting for the reader to read.
I pretty much need help in structuring my sentences. I should work on my verb tenses because I tend to mess that up a lot when I'm writing. I think this essay is one of my better ones; however, I'm afraid the frequent mistakes I made during 9th, 10th, & 11th grade might come back to haunt me during  my 4th year in an English class at Buckley.
