Portfolio preparation: Parallel structure

Review your own sample documents and look for examples of parallel structure. Have you used parallel structure correctly? If you have, record some examples. If you find examples that need correction, revise them now. Pay particular attention to lists; it is easy to make a mistake in parallel structure at this level.

We encourage you to find as many examples as you can of this concept in your sample documents. When you assemble your assignment portfolio, you will choose one or two of the examples to send to your tutor for feedback.
