Christina's feedback:

"You've done a good job setting up the discussion of the theme and the focus on the Scarlet Ibis. However, be very careful of repeating yourself too much. It seems like you've taken a template for the essay and interchanged different pieces of text, which creates a lot of repetition in the essay. For instance, sometimes you use the exact same phrasing that's seen elsewhere in the essay, and each of your paragraphs follow the exact same format. Your essay would benefit immensely from some heavy editing to rephrase the repetitive sentences and structures to enhance the readability and flow for the reader. If you do need to repeat yourself in an essay you should check on two things: First, make sure that you want to repeat the point you're making, and second, make sure that it contributes to the overall narrative in some way or reinforces a point made previously in the paper. Try to use different words or phrasing if you are going to reiterate an idea."
