My Writing Is Strong Essay

812 Words4 Pages

When it comes to writing I, for the most part have no clue on how to go about it. I have never exactly seen myself as a strong writer but there have been very few times where I would have said that my writing was weak. By no means do I think that I have the skills less than that of a high school student but at the same time, I wouldn’t go on to state I have the skills of an English major or even an English minor. That is my reason for taking WRT 098, I would like to improve my skills as a writer to at least the level a college student is supposed to be on as a freshman or maybe at an even higher level. My greatest fear about writing is that I try my best and it turns out to be one of those examples on what not to do in front of the class. …show more content…

Proofreading probably falls under the same category for me, sense it is my own paper, I have this since that nothing in the paper is wrong and I can’t clearly make it so that I have a just and unbiased way of finding problems in my papers. My last concern is probably my biggest weakness, I have a very big problem with procrastination. All my life I have been able to put off any work I had until the last couple hours and then finish it while maintaining a very solid GPA. It is just something I do now because I feel putting it off will help me get it done in the long run. As far as I know, this problem may be the reason for all the other ones mentioned in this paper. I am not sure how to change/fix this problem because now that I am in college and on a block schedule, everything is different and I am not getting a constant end of day reminder telling me this is due next week or do this tonight for next

    First and foremost, I'm extremely excited for your class this year. I've always considered myself to be more of a writer than a reader, so your class seems perfect. Even though reading is essential in becoming a proficient writer, the mechanics and raw structure of writing is absolutely fascinating to me. Regarding my weaknesses, I’d like to develop my persuasive techniques, especially with using rhetorical devices-- specifically pathos-- within my analytical writing; I find it challenging to smoothly integrate more artistic methods into technical essays. I take constructive criticism very seriously, as I learn best when I see specific areas where my writing could be improved.

Writing has always been a strength of mine, but I found it a challenge to move from the high school, six-paragraph essay format that I had grown accustomed to.

These include various writing techniques, MLA formatting, writing for purpose, convincing my arguments and finding and properly using sources.

  • Reflection On My Writing Process

    Throughout the term there has been many writing assignments —big or small— that helped reflect my writing process or the process itself. In the beginning of the course I felt like I was an “ok” writer, but lacked some skills such as: organization, sentence variety, and vocabulary. Also, I did not like to write and had a feeling of dislike when forced to write. I felt like I improved on everything I wanted and was seen throughout the semester. I know how to organize my ideas, the worksheets given in class to work on sentence variety really helped, and vocabulary was built on some level.

    Another weakness is Grammar mistakes, like using farther instead of further. They way i can improve upon these weaknesses is practicing verb editing, knowing where to put commas, periods and apostrophes. Another way i can improve on these mistakes is limiting and cutting ideas that are not needed, and seeing what best fits in my paper. My end of semester writing is way different then my writing from earlier in the semester. A paper i did from earlier in the semester ‘’Book 's/Knowledge Fahrenheit 451’’i lacked main focus, poor connections, too many idea’s, organization and some grammar.

  • Writing Essay: The Importance Of Writing

    1129 Words  | 5 Pages

    Writing is not just about coming up with ideas and jotting them down on paper saying that it is your story because if it is then it is half done, and readers would not want to read what you have to say about how you feel on an experience that you have explored. Writing is about going through experiences and jotting those experiences down on paper and putting them in order so that the reader can understand what experiences you went through to get to the point that you have come to. Writing is a way to write you feel and to make it easy so that you do not have to speak what is on your mind. In my opinion writing can be my favorite thing to do because I like to write but when it comes to me speaking, I get nervous and do not know what to say when I get in front of a crowd. Writing can also be a way to get out of things such as if you want to break up with someone, tell your parents something that is bad that you do not want to tell them in person, talk to a doctor in a message just in case if your friends are
