Hello there! Thank you for being a constant supporter of the site. I hope you're doing well in your writing endeavors. Please do come back!

First and foremost, consistency is very important when you're writing texts such as this. Ensure that you're adding more specific details to showcase that you have substantive depth in your writing. Remember to always retain that formal or educational tone all throughout. If you do this, you'll be able to showcase professionalism all throughout.

I have noticed that you have issues sometimes when it comes to tenses. Review the particular rules that you have to follow here. If you're torn, remember that it's critical for you to use past tenses when making substantiating an analysis based from a graph.

Best of luck as always.

@s410377088 @Maria thank you both. The advice from users of the forum is really helpful cause I'm practicing writing by myself. Surely I'll come back to get the best of your feedback!
