We have reached the end of the semester unconsciously. During this semester, we’ve practiced and improved our writing by outlining, composing, editing, and revising. Throughout the process, I discovered my strengths and weaknesses, meanwhile, I tried hard to refine my writing skills. By now, we have focused on a few types of writing: rhetorical analysis, critical analysis, and argument. Remembered our first in-class essay was a rhetorical analysis of an argument.
Preparation is the key to successfully navigating any writing assignment. Thus far, I have found this class to be beneficial in this regard. To start, the readings that we have discussed have been very stimulating from a creative standpoint. This is important since imagination is necessary to properly convey one’s thoughts and feelings. Likewise, the responses and subsequent class discussions have further served to promote abstract and analytical thinking.
Writing is a crucial part of our everyday lives that helps us to communicate our thoughts, emotions, and ideas with one another. The three main purposes of writing are expressive, expository, and persuasive. Through the different types of writing, we can venture and upgrade our writing skills while exploring various messages effectively. In this ENC 1101 class, we have implemented all three purposes of writing and learned how to develop well-written essays that meet the five capabilities, including creating different types of writing, well-written essays, volunteering in the writing process, reading comprehension in writing, and producing scholarly or non-scholarly research and document sources using MLA rules. Expressive writing is part of

Finally, students will engage in a classroom discussion to exchange their thoughts on the reading and writing of the assigned articles.

When I first started Dual English Comp I was narrow-minded and stubborn. This course opened up my mind to English but also taught me how to write a successful college essay. Before this course I had no idea which kind of punctuation to use or when to put a comma before but or and. When I look back on my first paper I wrote for English Comp I can definitely see a difference between my first piece of work and one of my last essays I wrote and how much I have improved. My initial goal when I first came into this class was to get an A no matter what.
I just want to start off by saying that this class has been so helpful and I have been able to learn so much and also see different perspectives with all of your help. It has truly been a pleasure working with all of you this semester! Even though I had ACC 201 background knowledge with me starting this class I was still nervous because math is not my strongest subject, but there was no need to be nervous. Although the material may have been challenging at times this class provided all the necessary materials and help so I could be successful in this class. I want to specifically thank Professor Chester for always answering all of my questions and making sure I grasped the material.
Over the course of the semester, my main goal was to become a more precise writer and develop my identity as a writer. According too, the Portfolio Letter assignment sheet, becoming a better writer consists of precise planning, draft and revising. It also includes understanding a variety of academic genres by examining the basic characteristics that defines each type. In order too efficiently meet my goal of becoming a better writer, it was very important to have my work evaluated by others and myself as well. The use of rhetorical knowledge, critical thinking, reading and writing all are the important aspects in this course.
I choose the writers and authors career cluster because sometimes I think about things and I write them down in my notes and on my phone so this could be a career I might enjoy doing. This career cluster is interesting to me because I think I would do this career because I would be getting money off something I enjoy doing. Writers and authors are also on TV a lot and being on TV is a goal of mine. In this career cluster your job or occupation may be to plan project arrangements or outlines.
Feedback is the best form of communication a student can receive. It is no secret that feedback in Composition courses improves people’s confidence while they gain unbiased opinions about their writing. There have been many opportunities to earn feedback from different resources such as the writing center, other people in their course, and a professor. Sometimes people may agree or disagree with people’s feelings toward their writing, but how a person uses feedback allows them to improve as a writer. In this essay, students will discuss their feelings toward the critiques they have received from the writing center, peers, and their professor to guide them toward the final revisions of their research paper which will improve their writing capabilities
When I first started college, I approached writing assignments with a bit of hesitation. I struggled with organizing my thoughts, structuring my essays, and conveying my ideas clearly. However, with each new assignment, I saw an opportunity to challenge myself and improve my writing and thinking skills. Looking back now, I realize that writing has been an essential tool for developing my critical thinking and communication skills. Through reflection on my writing process and the feedback that I have received, I have come to recognize the ways in which writing has helped me to develop a deeper understanding of myself and the world around me.
During the course of this semester, I feel that I have grown substantially as a writer. I think that I could improve even more with practice as well as using a few resources. This class has helped me drastically by improving my writing structure but I think it could have been even better if I had spent my time more efficiently. Overall this class has been very beneficial to me and I think it will really help me in the future. When I started this class I took a completely different approach to writing a paper.
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.
Writing has always been an issue but yet interesting subject of mine. As hard as I try and write essays, and papers I just can’t get the hang of writing. But after taking this class, I did learn different writing technique and improved my writing proficiency, material body of formatting, and how to uncovering and properly use sources. Through class exams, essays, and a research paper, I was able to learn new writing skills. Although I have learned a variety of things, my writing still needs improvement.
Each essay I wrote took me several time to write, several drafts which show that I have improve every time I do the drafts to write a perfect masterpiece. I learned a lot of skills and techniques this quarter, which has helped me to improve and progress my writing skills for the future. I will remember the skills, techniques, and tips that professor gave us in this English class for my higher education. For example, all the time that I went to visit professor Sapozhnikov office hours to receive help on my out-of -class essays has helped me to improve, grow, and progress in my writing skills as a writer. Some of the significant changes I have made as I was progressing and growing were to develop a strong thesis to help support my claims as I write my essays, such as facts, observations, illustration, and examples.
