How many pages do u have so far? I think it is a perfect length. Good luck. %26lt;%26gt;%26lt;|||An introduction firstly introducing John D. Rockefeller (Achievements, legacy, what he did for the world etc), would greatly improve the start of your essay; also, introduce a topic sentence (eg. What are you going to talk about in the essay?). Also use a hook (Eye catching opening sentence that persuades the reader to read on). Also, it sounds like a biographical essay, so, in your conclusion, I wouldn't use words such as "I", it makes the essay seem informal and you may lose marks for it; since it's not an opinionated essay, you can't really express your opinion (Unless your teacher has told you so) because the essay is way too formal. In the conclusion, you must some up all the points you covered (Maybe Rockefeller's philanthropy, overall achievements and legacy) and also sum up the topic sentence.
Good luck!
