If you memorize the following three sentences, you will always remember how to distinguish the three grammatical persons:

"I always write in the first person.
You always write in the second person.
She always writes in the third person."


First person sentences take the perspective of the writer. "I went there, I did that." Sentences using "we" are also first person because it still involves the writer. "We did that."


Second person is referring to the reader. "You went there, you did that."


Third person is a sentence about anyone other than the writer and the reader. "He went there, she did that." "The dog ate dinner." "Jessica wrote an essay." "They read Jessica's essay about the dog eating dinner."
