Bob's feedback:

"This sounds like a really fun assignment! You've done a great job of connecting the lyrics of your chosen songs to the different scenes in Macbeth. You might also consider discussing the tone, feel, and tempo of the music you've chosen to give each song's connection to the scene more depth.

Make sure to explain what your task is in your introduction. While you mention that you've found songs that relate to the play, it's not clear from your intro that you're creating a hypothetical soundtrack.

It's not always necessary to use statements such as "the connection is that" or "the relation to the scene is." This will be apparent from your analysis. Instead, you can use phrases like "The lyrics of [song] pair well with Macbeth's actions..." This will strengthen your essay and make your connections feel more like explanations than justifications.

Make sure to proofread thoroughly to clear up some grammar mistakes and awkward sentences."
