Hi Angga, after reading your analysis, I must admit, it is very well analyzed. l am pretty sure that how you understood the table transpired to the analysis that you have written and this is very good. This essay only means that you are slowly gaining the fruits of your labor. From the beginning of your writing you have struggled, you progressed and I can attest that you are gaining confidence in your writing style now. More importantly, you understand each and every single information on the table and telling your readers about it, in a way that they understand it.

I can't say much about this essay as it is written fairly well as I mentioned.
One thing is that you also kept it to a minimum number of paragraph and this goes on a domino effect with the smooth flow of the entire essay.

I hope you continue writing and never get tired of continuously learning new strokes on writing, read a lot and read aloud, this helps you hear what and how the words sound, one thing that I learned over the years, when I read the sentences aloud and something sounds off, normally there is something wrong with the sentence and it needs a whole lot of modification.

I hope my insights are useful and do let us know should you need any assistance.
