As a last minute review, I decided to talk with my tutor about my essay. I don't know why I left it so late and I know that time management should have been one of my priorities. However, there were just some last minute issues that I wanted to address.
One of the issues that was brought up in this review was my use of the first person within my essay. I don't know why I didn't realise this before but I talked a lot in the first person and in academic writing this is something that is not supposed to be done. It's quite silly of me not to notice such a simple mistake. Some of my points in my essay were backed up by my own opinion when it really should have been backed up by practicing theorists.
I have made the changes to my essay and I think that it is much stronger and more professional now. I am glad that I went to talk to my tutor although some times this prospect scares me and gives me anxiety. I know that I need to push through this sometimes because having experts opinion is helpful with the progression of things you have only seen with your own eyes.
