If yes, then get\nin the series of flashbacks and recall that time. How you took a start? In what\ntone you shared your story?&nbsp; You might be\nwondering what concern we have with the quality time; you have had with your\nfriends. It&#8217;s because the stories you shared are precisely what we are going to\ndiscuss about. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;What is a reflection for\nyou? Enlightening your personal experience or either evaluating yourself in a\nparticular scenario? You know we all do a reflection daily and still get\npuzzled when our mentors assign to write a reflective essay. The only\ndifference in verbal reflection and paper reflection is of format and\nstructure.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;In a reflective essay,\nyou should keep your tone quite formal and need to give your opinion on a\nparticular idea, piece of literature, or either on a movie. However, sometimes\nyou are restricted to the topic, or sometimes you are set free to opt for anything\nof your choice. But, what remains constant is your tone and of course, you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;Although there is one\nthing which is highly essential and must-to-be consider while writing a\nreflective essay. These are examples. It&#8217;s apparent that you merely quote\nexamples when sharing your experience verbally, but when it comes to pen down\nyour reflection, you are supposed to cite examples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;Along with the\nacknowledgment of what is a reflective essay, understanding the importance of\npatterning examples in the article is also crucial. Not everyone is your\nfriend, and not everyone is going to get your portrayed picture in the first\nattempt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;You may have heard a lot\nof times from your teacher that whenever you write your paper, do not forget to\ninclude examples. And oh, how can we all forget those exam memories where we\ngot B grade for not giving the appropriate examples with the answers. Do you\nknow why we recall all of these things here? To make you realize the importance\nof examples in a reflective essay. Even if you are writing your own experience,\nwriting examples is still mandatory. Let&#8217;s move forward. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Why are examples\nimperative in the essay?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What? If I say that, I have experienced that whenever you fear\nsomething, it happens. Are you going to believe it? Just because I have\nexperienced, it doesn&#8217;t mean it&#8217;s true. Now, only if I support my claim with a\nrelevant and strong example, then there are chances that you all might be\nstanding on the same page of the agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;For instance, if I say\nthat I believe whenever you fear to form something it happens, and this is\nbecause of its human psychology that it evaluates each thing from all expected\nprobabilities. Specifically, among three or four consequences, you will fear\nfor the one which has more chances to occur. Is my belief making sense\nnow?&nbsp; You all have been into a risky\nsituation, and among all of the expected outcomes, there was that one which you\nhad more fear about, and eventually, it happened. It&#8217;s not because you were\nthinking about it all the time, it&#8217;s because deep down your sixth sense knew\nit!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;Similarly, when you write\nyour reflection and tell your readers how you find a particular book, idea, or\nmovie, you need to quote it with examples. If you are giving your audience an\nimpression of recommendation and claiming that the book you are writing about\nis highly motivating, then cite an example. Make your readers know how that\nspecific book motivated you and what the situation was where you found the\nwords of that book-worthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<strong>Tips and recommendations&nbsp; <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apart from the importance of writing examples, you need to understand <a href=\"https:\/\/english.csuci.edu\/program\/sample-essay-example-1.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">how to write a reflective essay<\/a> and its examples as well.&nbsp; There are few things which you all need to consider before writing your essay writing. You just cannot start from &#8216;once upon a time&#8217; and then pour the entire story at once. No!&nbsp; You should know how to start, where to quote examples, and how to conclude without creating boredom vibes. Have a look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u2022 Keep your introductory\nparagraph concise, your tone clear and quite descriptive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u2022 Do not forget that your\naudience does not know about your story; it is your responsibility to make\nstand everyone on the same page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u2022 Avoid using examples in\nthe introductory paragraph; your audience is trying to understand what you are\ntrying to narrate, do not drag them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u2022 While starting your\nnarration, make sure you are on the same track. Sound associated and connected,\nbecause usually when people discuss their experience, there are high chances of\nbeing lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u2022 Use relevant and\nassociated examples. Note that you are quoting examples to keep things steer\nclear for readers. Do not let the irrelevancy of your examples trap your\nreaders in a more puzzling situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u2022 Quote examples in a\nstyle that expresses the understanding of your audience, instead of making your\nreaders feel like you are the one who is standing on confusing horizons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u2022 Make an impressive\nconclusion when writing a conclusion, try to convey at least one crucial\nmessage to your audience. Ask yourself why one would be interested in listening\nto your story? Is there something advantageous for them? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;\u2022 Do not consider your\nfirst draft as your final draft. Proofread as much as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ever saw this side of the reflection? We are sure you haven\u2019t.\nThis time when you write your reflection essay, take all of the given\ninstructions in your consideration, and hit on the straight-As, in your\nscorecard. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever shared stories with your friends?
