The language of reflection

Writing reflectively requires command of a particular style of writing, which is in some ways different from the style of writing you will be asked to use in other critical essays.

Reflection

What do you notice about the type of language used in the reflections you have studied in the previous section?

Discussion of reflective language analysis

Reflective writing is characterised by a number of features:

•A range of tenses, eg the past tense (simple, continuous, perfect) to describe the incident or experience (‘I spent most of the time’; ‘this unnerved me’; ‘she had been self-harming’); the present tense (simple, continuous, perfect) to describe current feelings and beliefs (‘I prefer working with younger children’; ‘I’m thinking about having’; ‘I have realised’); the future tense to describe planned action (‘I think I’ll be’; ‘I’m going to contact’);

•A slightly conversational tone (‘I wasn’t really looking forward to’; ‘she had just “lost it”’);

•The first person pronoun (‘my first placement’; ‘I started to read around the topic’);

•Words and phrases connected to different aspects of reflection as outlined in the various models (see the next task).
