  1. Faustina:

    You need to proofread. Some missing words and typos are here and interfere with clear understanding.

    The detail about student Carson is NOT a main point; it’s the hook.

    Good that you got the point that parents have contributed to their children’s stress. But you have missed some main supporting details: Resilience, Post-pandemic increased performance expectations and increased drive to excell / be successful for students.

    Please read again. I suggest working with a tutor on writing the summary.

    But so so glad you are doing the work.

    Best,

    Prof. Wu

Most teenagers are experiencing higher level of loneliness and depression. Schools shut down during the pandemic, but something unexpected happened. Most students’ mental health improved. Since class and exams were cancelled, students grades were moving from fail to pass. They participated in class activity [clarify]. The reveal that the lower stress and fear has balance [huh? DMS].

    Also look the ending part where Smith writes about what parents can do to help lower their children’s level of mental stress.
