Personal Reflection On Rhetorical Analysis

2057 Words9 Pages

Introduction
Writing is both a fundamental and technical skill that one has to learn in the entire life. Individuals only become better writers, but it is quite rare to find experts in this field.

Therefore, I believe that the unit has helped shove the notion of getting good results without working for them. In my reflection, I would like to trace my journey before and after the unit of study. I will focus on how the feedbacks have impacted me and whether I considered some or ignored all and the use of concepts and awareness on my rhetorical situation. Also, on the understanding of the …show more content…

Editing and proofreading could only be better by indicating areas that I applied the fundamental concepts and whether the same concepts are sound and more …show more content…

The misuse of the word "compassion" reminded me that I have to do more reading before making or developing a good work. Therefore, the feedbacks have made me grow into a better writer who can appeal to the expectations of my peers and my tutor, as well as can be attributed to my personal efforts. As I struggle to build myself as a writer, I know every resource count including the tutors and my peers who have been watching me grow all through. In general, feedbacks are significant parameters that respond to the level of competency of a writer while pointing out areas of
