The problem that needs to be fixed in Denise’s narrative is: Denise needs to include herself as a character in the narrative.

While the current passage provides a description of Mr. Thompson and his enthusiasm for teaching, it lacks a personal connection or perspective from Denise herself, which is essential for a personal narrative.
