Angela's feedback:

"The overall structure of your essay makes sense, and you provide good reasons in each of your body paragraphs to support your stance that Miss Narwin should not have taken a leave of absence. Your essay could be improved with further revision to address writing convention errors. For example, you'll want to make sure that you refer to the student as "Philip" and not "Phillip." Meanwhile, when using word processing software, book titles should be italicized. Book titles are underlined when you are writing them out on paper since it's hard to show italics in such situations. There are instances where spaces need to be inserted between sentences or between a word and a piece of punctuation. Remember as well to capitalize proper nouns such as "Narwin" but to leave words such as "ninth" in lowercase. Recasting run-on sentences and sentence fragments would improve the flow of your writing. In terms of formatting, note that margins are typically set to one inch all around for academic work."
