A Personal Recount is when you are involved in an event. The writer
was personally involved.
A Factual Recount is an event that you were not involved with
you may have gotten it from a friend, or it might have been a police report.
So the difference between a Factual Recount and a Personal Recount
is that a personal recount was an event you were involved with and a
factual is from something like the news paper.
Personal Recount
-Writer involved

-Past Tense.
-First person I, me, we.
-Order of events that happened.

Factual Recount

- Events in order and relate to one event.
- Past tense.
-Third person, is, she, they
-Evaluation at the end. summing up or personal comment.
