Jenn's feedback:

"You have done a good job neatly formatting your essay which makes it easier for readers to comprehend. It is also clear throughout the paper what the purpose of it is. Despite this, there are places in your paper where it is not clear why you chose to use specific content. This is mostly because you sometimes include new ideas without any context or move onto new ideas without creating transitions. While you have attempted an introduction with a thesis statement, the thesis statement is not as strong as it could be because you have repeated thoughts. If you combine the last two sentences, then you will have a strong, clear, and concise thesis statement. The conclusion is also not as strong as it could be because you use different wording in the conclusion than you do in both the introduction and the body of the paper. When you are reiterating the four main symbols, make sure to use the same wording. There are a number of MLA style convention issues. You need to have your heading double spaced and only on the first page. There is an inconsistency in the number of references you have and the in-text citations. All of the references you have in the reference section should be represented by an in-text citation. You also need to properly format titles, references, and in-text citations. Along with these issues, there are a number of grammatical and sentence structure errors. Please make sure to read through your essay, or have someone else read through it, and resolve these issues."
