In reply to pooh.

Hi, Pooh,
Have you already collected the comments? If so, then my suggestion is to go through the comments and organize them by theme. For example, “comments about style”, “praise”, “criticism I can use” “criticism I can’t use” and so forth. You can then outline your essay so that you write one paragraph about each theme and describe how the comments made you feel “I felt that the criticism I received about X was warranted/unwarranted because….” The nice thing about a reflective essay is that it is not extremely formal, since it can be written in first person. You can learn more about this style of essay here: https://www.kibin.com/essay-writing-blog/how-to-write-a-reflective-essay/

Best,
Naomi

Hi Julin–maybe your best plan is to learn by example. See how other students do this type of work and try to emulate their success. Here is one resource for you: https://student.unsw.edu.au/examples-reflective-writing

I think the improtant things are to include the following in your entries: 1. Summarize the experience. 2. Describe what you learned from the experience and how it’s contributing to your personal/career growth. 3. Write in a clear manner free of confusing grammatical and sentence structures errors (our editors can help you with this step: https://www.kibin.com/essay-editing-proofreading )
