Before taking this course writing was something I would dismiss. I always left like my writing was slow and hard to understand even if I could understand it, thus making me feel unsure and uncomfortable about sharing my work. After taking this class I felt like my writing has become clearer and I have started to feel more comfortable sharing my work form the repeated peer revision. Hemingway once said that writing was flowing and easy, “All you have to do is sit at a typewriter and bleed.” I would agree with him because when he said it he said it sarcastically.

Over time each of these elements has been improving, for example, I would have a lot of run-on sentences in my writing during middle school, but now I barely have any. During this class, I was able to focus more on sentence fragments and comma splices which have been one of my weaker areas during high school.
College will come around very soon for me even if I am not ready it will come.

I came into my first college writing class feeling prepared thanks to you and your investment in me as a student in your AP Lang class. I developed as a writer more than I ever had in your class, and it definitely helped me in my college writing class this semester. I already knew how important it was to revise and continuously critically think about my writing, as well as the importance of multiple drafts and peer review. My English 110 class this semester was very similar to yours because we also did multiple drafts where I could revise my paper as many times as needed. The big difference was that the focus was on different genres and how to appeal to those, which was something new compared to my high school English courses.

The information that I had collected was often roughly thrown together resulting in a messy, loosely connected, and often ineffective paper. I was making it more complicated than necessary for my audience to become informed from my writing. My work was missing clarity, organization and a cohesive flow.
