Prior to this class I had never written an essay in MLA format my high school teacher would really just accept any type of writing format, alongside that I never really learned and knew how to support my ideas.

  • Revising Process In English 101

    468 Words  | 2 Pages

    Being in English 101 has impacted three different types of writing processes: drafting, revising, and editing. Before I started this class, I never made drafts; I only did pre-writes and the final copy of the essay. Now, I do the pre-writes, then type it and make the draft, and then fix any errors in it. Another writing process that has improved is revising because now instead of reading what I wrote myself, I let my friends, classmates, and teachers read it to see if they understand what I’m writing and if they see any errors. This makes my editing process easier because I know what mistakes I made.

    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.

  • Reflective Essay: My Writing As A Writer For Me

    233 Words  | 1 Pages

    Writing for me is more than just scribbling down words on a paper, it is more personal and a reminder of the challenges and accomplishments that I have achieved throughout my life. In my journals I do not write about my day to day life, but rather focus on important moments throughout my life that had a huge impact on me. When I write about these events I try to do so with as much detail as possible so that when I look back on my words I can relive the whole experience once again. My writing is usually done late at night when everyone is asleep giving me the peace and quiet I need to focus on my work and so that I can write about my experiences with full remembrance of what occurred at the event.

What if my classmate gets offended by my comments? On the other hand, I had to make myself realize that the critiquing assignment was not about what was “wrong” or “correct” in their written work.
