Personal Reflection: My Writing Experience

I am basically a listener, I believe when there is an activity that needs to be done, I am hands on. In gathering my thoughts I try to jot down notes with the quickness, this is to make sure I do not lose my train of thought. Also, with my listening and organizing my writing, I find myself stressing and sometimes overwhelmed as if I have forgotten some important information. Expressing my ideas in a way to get my readers attention is very valuable to me so far as getting positive feedback. Fortunately, before I start writing on a regular basis I had a hard time describing and sharing my experiences.

The cover letter unit is really useful because I learned a lot of new things. One of the most important things I have learned from this unit is what to include in a cover letter. When I registered for this course, the first thing I asked my friends who have taken this course is how to write a cover letter. This unit taught me what the three paragraphs are and what goes into each one. Second, proving your skill section is critical because it really shows how the skills should be interpreted in an effective way.

Looking back at the beginning of this semester I was unsure of why I was in this class to begin with. I had thought that my writing was good enough to pass any class that Lake Land had to offer, but I was completely wrong. The things I have learned this semester of what not to put in my papers is a lot more than I think I have ever learned in a class before. I have learned to proofread my papers better, proper punctuation, and just to relax and not overthink my topic. Proofreading my papers has always been a weak spot for my writing.

This step helps me to write and develop my ideas into complete sentences. The fourth step is writing the assignment and correcting the mistakes. The last, but not least, is bringing the final draft of my assignment to the reading and writing center and asking somebody to review it. This last step helps me especially for the reading responses for the book Seedfolks since a person who did not read the book has to understand what was all about. Thus, following all that steps helps me in the writing

My instructor Jennifer Jackson said this time “ Bravo! This is one of the strongest revisions I’ve seen yet.” This essay gave me so much confidence and made me feel I can actually write something interesting. Also, I sent my paper to The Writing Center, after I submitted my paper to my instructor to see any other mistakes I could have to improve my writing skills. I received a very good feedback from them after three or four days of submitting my paper, they said, “ my paper was pretty good. I needed to work on some minor mistakes such as spacing, omitting the work “that” when I did not need

I was so stressed out that last week. I had wrecked my last week of summer just because I wanted to just have fun instead of doing some work every once in a while. When it was due, I was ashamed of how little I got done. Thankfully the teacher had given me a couple of more days. So by the time I had turned it in it was done.

Writing essays and other types of posts has always been difficult for me. But, throughout this composition class, I have learned many interesting and new things about the different types of writing styles. When starting this class, I considered myself to be an average writer with run-of-the-mill vocabulary, ordinary sentence structure and typical finished products. This class has helped me greatly improve my writing skills in a variety of ways. I have learned multiple things by taking this class, such as new ways to approach writing and that there is much that I still need to learn about composition.

English writing 101 I was able to fully understand how to fix these problems for those essays and in the future. In my Self-Inventory Essay it is very noticeable that my organization is a problem. It is visible that I don’t have good transitions into and out of each paragraph; first off I use “my first strength”, “my second strength” which are very plan and simple. In my Comparative Analysis Essay we can wee that I have come up with better transitions to make the whole essay seem more organized, for example I used more specific transitions like “In Amy Tans Mother Tongue” and for the paragraph after it I used “This shows that the” which make it flow better and be more concise. In my Self-Inventory

From the start of the semester, I have found myself not meeting standards because of my difficulty being able to explain myself correctly. In one of the first formatives we were assessed on, The JFK Inaugural Speech, my use of quotations were effective, but the sentences that followed were opposite of that. While analyzing the comments made by you stating that the explanation needs to be more “specific” and “have a greater focus on analysis,” I made it my task to improve on what was keeping me from earning a better grade. When looking at my Destination Essay, the focus seems like I’m “playing with multiple ideas,” but I don’t necessarily have one perfect idea. By missing out on fixing these mistakes and seeking help from you, I continued to demonstrate this lack of explanation in multiple other essays and formatives.

Transitioning from a lousy high school writer to an acceptable college student writer was a long journey for me; I made more progress than I thought even. I feel like I have been making a lot of progress with my research on different assignments, my creativeness has gotten a lot better, and analyzing has become less difficult for me. This is the first time I have actually done a research paper on a novel while in college and it was a challenge for me; all the other research papers I did were on my major or what I career I wanted 10 years from now. The page length was my biggest problem because all the research papers that I

When doing these steps you have done all the steps needed for critical thinking and this is how reading and writing are very important in helping you become better at critical thinking. Critical thinking is a good skill to have because it can help you think about the outcome of an idea and not just doing whatever pops into your head to do. Most people start using critical thinking when they 're older because they have learned from there previse ideas that didn’t go so well so by making the mistakes of not going throw all the steps they know now to always think you options through and not just skip ever thing and go right to the

My artifact is about a book I read called Fahrenheit 451 and We had to pick a theme or character to talk about and analyze their changes throughout the book. What I learned through the essay is that you need to revise your work all the time to catch your mistake and you have to be patient to find these mistakes. The main idea in my essay was to show Montag change of talking about books throughout many event that captured Montag to change his feeling towards books. It shows that people can change throughout time when they have motivation and help with them. We were assigned this artifact because the way how the book progress and the message in the book stating that we are paying attention more to media then books.
