This is very critical when writing a college essay because you want it to sound as natural as possible, but at the same time it has to sound logical and appealing to the reader. Mr. E knows exactly how to do this and he is patient throughout the process. I really appreciate that he gives me feedback and makes corrections on my essays, but he also understands that it is my essay and that I ultimately have to decide what reflects who I am.
