Jenn's feedback:

"This essay is off to an excellent start. Your paper is very neatly formatted, which helps improve reading comprehension and the cohesiveness of the writing. I recommend that you do remove the extra spacing from between paragraphs. You also have an excellent handle on writing conventions with almost no grammar, punctuation, or sentence structure errors found. To improve the paper's organization, I suggest that you elaborate on both the introduction and the conclusion. Right now, the only thing that represents an introduction is a thesis statement. I recommend giving a little background about the speech to expand the introduction. I also recommend that you elaborate on the conclusion by summarizing the main points you made in the body of the paper. Doing this will clarify the purpose of your essay. Overall, the content of your paper is excellent. The only other suggestion I have is that you make an effort to create smoother transitions between paragraphs and sentences to create more cohesion and reduce questions in readers' minds."
