To begin, the title that the author chose is very broad; therefore, it does not include the author’s approach to the essay topic.

Next, the introductory paragraph is poorly structured because it does not contain a specific thesis statement. The author mentions the subtopics involving the relevance of Shakespeare to the modern world and Shakespeare’s outdated content towards the end of the introduction; however, there is no clearly stated thesis within the paragraph. The last sentence, which is commonly where the thesis statement is located, is in the form of a question rather than an opinion, which makes the structure of the thesis incorrect.
In May of 1998, Kipland Kinkel brought a gun to his school.

In her article “Tattoos are no longer permanent but removal can be a long and costly business,” Victoria Lambert (2015) explains that tattoos can be removed with laser, an injectable liquid and surgery. However, the process for each option is not only time consuming, expensive, painful, but can also have severe consequences.

While all fields of academia possess some level of practical application, there remains an ever-important and all-encompassing skill which is needed to truly understand each subject: reading. Though literacy rates in the US near 100%, literacy unaccompanied by tools such as context, critical analysis, and sufficient skepticism can leave one lost in arduous texts and vulnerable to flawed arguments.
