Wiser Tutorial

Today I collected my first draft of the Peppa Pig section of the report which I had handed to one of the Wiser tutors. I was aware that this was only a very early draft, yet I thought that if there was a problem with my writing style with regards to the 'review' format, then I would like to be made aware of this from the outset.

Key points to consider which the Wiser tutor highlighted were:
To be careful that I didn't abbreviate without first including a full version of the word, e.g. Jr, instead of junior. I considered that an abbreviation list would help me overcome this.

It was very important to me that all of the information which I included was relevant, and thus that I was fulfilling the given task. I therefore was told to consider how I would write this essay when I started to discuss eight more topics - would I give each of these a separate section, or would I discuss these comparatively? This is my next area for consideration.

I must also avoid contractions when writing - for example I should write 'do not' instead of 'don't'. I also made slight errors in my grammar, for example confusing the use of apostrophes.

I must now look at how I can group the information accordingly. In order to be successful in this I will look at previous successful reports today.
