What is an example of helpful peer feedback?

Which comment is least helpful?

• Your organization is a bit confusing. What if you moved your second paragraph to the end?

• Each of your sentences in paragraph 2 begin with "He." Consider using a different sentence starter to have more varied writing.

• Your essay was interesting to read. I liked all of it and think you will probably get a good grade on it.

• You have used "I" and "my" several times in your essay. Since this is a research essay, you should avoid using first person and rework it to be in third person.
