AO4 Personal Response
Übersicht
AO4 asks for your own response to a text, but the word that matters is informed. A personal response is not a verdict on whether you liked a poem or found a character annoying. It is a considered judgement about the text, rooted in its words and methods, that only you could have written because it grows out of your own careful reading.
This note draws the line between an unsupported opinion and a critical personal response. It shows how conviction is earned through evidence, how engagement can be sensitive as well as confident, and how your response should run through a whole essay in the verbs and judgements you choose, not be tacked on in a final sentence. Every model uses out-of-copyright writing so you can study the move rather than memorise a set text.
