Don’t just copy everything. Read through the text and find the most important points to use.

  5. Successful and unsuccessful paraphrasing • Successful Successful paraphrasing is when your whole essay is written in your own words but you’ve still used the help of someone else's work. • Unsuccessful This would be when it is obvious you didn’t do the work yourself and your sentence structure would be very similar to the source you are using.
