Often times when writing an essay, we have a one track mind that doesn't enable us to see from different points of view. It's easy to get stuck on one problem or one aspect of the essay you're writing. This can leave the essay with problems and leave the author at a dead end with no new ideas. These dead ends in essays is why peer review is important. It's super beneficial to have other people read your essay because they have a different perspective than you do. They can tell you what works in your essay and what doesn't. They often find grammatical errors or transitions that don't quite work out as well. They give beneficial feedback that you can then incorporate into your essay because you have new ideas and a better sense of direction with the final drafts of you essay.
Peer review is important mainly because it helps you polish your essay and make it better than it could have been without a peer review.
