How Do I Write Feedback on UpWork?

Last updated on September 29, 2022 @ 9:53 pm

When it comes to giving feedback on UpWork, there are a few things you should keep in mind. First and foremost, be respectful.

This is someone’s livelihood, so take a deep breath and remember that constructive feedback is always more helpful than tearing someone down.

When you’re critiquing someone’s work, always start with the positive – what did they do well? For example, “I really loved the way you organized this report” or “Your use of color was really eye-catching.”

This will help soften the blow of any constructive feedback you have to give.

PRO TIP: If you are thinking about writing feedback on Upwork, be very careful. There are a lot of scams out there, and many people have been taken advantage of. Feedback can be a great way to help other freelancers, but only if it is honest and accurate. Make sure that you know what you are doing before you write anything, and always be cautious when giving feedback.

Then, move on to what could be improved. Again, try to be respectful and avoid sounding condescending.

For example, “I think it would be helpful if you included more data to support your points” or “It might be helpful to clarify your position on this issue.”

Finally, finish up with some suggestions for how they can improve in the future. For example, “In the future, I suggest that you try to focus on one issue at a time” or “It might be helpful to spend more time editing your work before submitting it.”

Conclusion:

Giving feedback can be difficult, but it’s important to be respectful and helpful when critiquing someone’s work. Try to start with the positive, then move on to what could be improved. Finally, finish up with some suggestions for how they can improve in the future.
