Coherence and Cohesion
Your essay has inconsistencies in maintaining a logical structure which can be confusing. Stay focused on your primary arguments and ensure each idea logically flows from one to the next.
Grammatical Range and Accuracy
Ensure that every sentence is grammatically correct. Additionally, ensure that sentences aren't too long and complex - break them down if necessary.
Lexical Resource
Try to avoid misunderstandings by using clear and concise language. For example, 'good compre' is unclear. Do you mean 'good comprehension'?
