You added some great extras to your page but I wish the essay was more organized. It should be one flowing essay, not spread out paragraphs. Also you should make sure that your essay doesn't contain any errors or misspelling. I can tell that you did put some effort into the project. Just check to make sure you don't lose points for basic mistakes.
