Engl 1005a Portfolio Assessment

In my ENGL 1005A portfolio assessment, I see I am doing well on my Content and Use of Information. With this class, I really enjoyed the topics we worked on, which helped me create more developed essays and learned how to organize it. I am surprised as in how well I did in my first year of college. On my first essay, I worked hard on it and took my time with it by revising and asking my classmate to any errors I have made. It was my first essay in college and I wanted to show a good first impression. With ENGL 1005A, it helped me focus on my writing skills and also my critical thinking. I was not strong in English in the past years, however, this class help me improve my skills such as building a stronger thesis. Also, it helped me to create a more organized and detailed paper. This class helped me be more of a free-writer. In highschool, I was limited on how much I can write, now in college, I can write as much as I want. Therefore, with more freedom, it help me concentrate on my topic and give strong evidence.

As a writer, I need to work on being on track. In my past years, I tend to procrastinate a lot and I should stop this bad habit of mine. Therefore, I struggled to know if I was on point with my essays, not knowing if I was doing good or not. I struggled going to offices hours and asking for help because I had no time. Given back results of my essays, I tend to not recognize and repeat many information. As a result, I need to structure my work so I can make my work more organized and structured. I believe I lack structure because I don't ask for assistance and guidance. I have not asked anyone to help me revise my essays, which in the future I would like to do. I would like to work on better my assignments by spending more time on it and being more focused. I would like to have improvements to better myself as a writer so I can get all five in each category next
