- The structure. Does it make sense? Could the essay be better if the structure would be re-arranged? Is something missing? Are there parts that are not relevant or needed?
- Language. Both grammar and academic style. If you notice some typos, it's okay to point them out. Also, you can discuss what makes the academic text sound academic.
