ReplyDeleteTom, I believe, after our meeting with Maxine on Tuesday, that you are supposed to be seeing Pamela for your essay work, instead of Tracey?
ReplyDeleteAlso, I would direct you back to Phil's very detailed feedback on your essay introduction- he has clearly pointed out the areas that need some amendment, however the introduction you have posted above is exactly the same. I would suggest that you have a go at amending it accordingly, before you meet with Pamela.
