Reflective Essay 1 Structure, E-mails

Someone asked me in class today (9 AM) if the reflective essay needs an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion. This is not necessary. This is not really an essay in the traditional sense. It is like a journal entry, so you can write one giant paragraph, a few paragraphs, etc. It really does not matter, so long as your write a careful reflection of your writing process in English. Also make sure to follow the right format, i.e. 12-point Times New Roman double-spaced. Points will be taken off if this format is not followed.

Another question I got today was about grammar in e-mails. You need not have perfect grammar. What I meant is that you should avoid being informal or causal, e.g. using abbreviations (lol, rofl, omg, etc.), spelling things wrong, not using punctuation.
