Introduction Profiling the characters from a text is a good way to get to the heart of each individual character in a way that is clear to understand and can also easily highlight the similarities and differences between the characters.
The Profile Useful headings include: · Name · Age · Address · Occupation · Physical appearance · Likes and dislikes, interests and past-times · Personality · Personal development and changes · Role in the text · Importance in the text · Key moments · Sympathetic or unsympathetic, admirable or unlikeable
