Jenn's feedback:

"Overall, this is a very well-written paper. Only a couple of things need to be worked on to make it feel more finished. First, to significantly improve the document, you need to add an introduction and conclusion. The introduction should tell the reader what the paper will be about and should end in a thesis statement that guides the body of the paper. The conclusion should then summarize the main points you made in the document's body and relate them to the thesis statement. Adding the introduction and the conclusion will make it so that the purpose of your paper is clearly communicated, and then it will be clear that you are focused on that purpose. The only issue with the formatting is that the spacing between each paragraph is too large. Last, the primary convention issue I found in the paper is the use of commas instead of periods."
