What is the difference between a narrative essay and a reflective essay?

The difference is that in a reflective essay, you reflect on an experience.You share insight into your choices and how it has effected you in your life.For example, you can write a reflective essay about a science project you did.You would share your thoughts, feeling, and emotions you felt when you were doing the project. In addition, you can include a lesson you learned and how it effected the rest of your life. In contrast, a narrative tells about a specific moment or time of your life. You narrate what happens and share your feeling from that time. You provide insight on why you felt that way and make the writing more personal.You don't reflect on the experience, instead you just inform the person about it.If you want to learn more, you can ask your English teacher,librarian,or tutor to help you.
