...At the beginning of this course I feel like I was a very poor writer. I rarely wrote and hated doing it. Now after completing several papers, I feel that I am much better at it. I know now the correct way to format my papers in MLA style. I’ve learned how to create thesis and how to structure my essays properly. I am better now at being able to find information online and putting into my own words or using it to gain knowledge on my topic. I've noticed that I am now able to write a lot more about a given topic then I used to be able. Last year I could not write over a two page paper. Now, I feel like if I’m writing about a topic that I am interested in and there is a lot of information about, that I can write for a much longer time. The essay...

...Dear Professor Dockter, The essay that I have chosen to revise for assignment #4 is the profile essay. In this particular essay, the objective of the writer was successfully interviewing and presenting a member of a community. A member is a small part of an identity to the community. The community I selected was the Pascua Yaqui Tribe, and the specific member was Daniel Vega, a director of the language and culture department. In revising this essay, I feel that a principal global factor that the paper lacked was organization. Organization is a key component that molds an essay. According to Rules for Writers, “these patterns (sometimes called methods of development) have different uses, depending on the writers subject and purpose” (35) explaining that it depends on the type of essay I am trying to convey to the audience. The essay was short of an appropriate organization as far as an outline. I went back to the basics and rewrote my topic sentences, as well as my support and details briefly. It provided me with a basic knowledge of exactly what my paper was going to look like and consist of. With this exercise, I was able to recognize the details and the evidence that belong to other sections of the essay. Since this is a profile essay, it contains a mix of organizations to utilize: description, narration and includes a slight bit of process. It relies on what you are including in the profile. With these organizations, I am able to combine the essence of their...

...a really great class so far. I have learned a lot about myself as a writer. I have found that I tend to write in first person more than I should. It is not always bad to write that way, but it is not the most formal way to write. When I write I have to concentrate on not using pronouns such as I, me, and myself. I have learned that writing is not as easy as I thought it was. Writing takes time and planning. To have a nice, well written paper, I have to take time to go though it a few times to check for mistakes and errors. The biggest challenge for me so far has been time management. I am in high school and I tend to remember homework for my physical classes better than this one. I also have a part-time job and volunteer two to three times a week. Both of these things tend to get in my way when...

...chapter of my book is about to unravel: senior year. However, before I start exploring my horizons, which is going to be filled with new opportunities and memories to be made, it’s best to reflect on my experience in AP Language and Composition with Mrs.Miles throughout junior year. These past 8 months were filled with enlightening experiences. From the discussions and articles of the week to the countless essays we had to write. I believe that Mrs.Miles really focused on our writing skills, which I am awfully grateful that she did. Mrs.Miles has assisted in my growth in writing; as my grammar has improved, including the use of commas, colons, and semicolons. In fact, I am now knowledgeable of the fact...

...Being more of an argumentative writer, I felt a lot more comfortable writing this essay than the first essay; although this was still an analytical paper, it definitely had some argumentative aspects in it. Writing in general is not my strong suit, but I feel that I really improved my sentence flow and my ability to incorporate quote in my essay. One of the parts of my essay that I am particularly happy with is my introductory paragraph. For me, the introductions and conclusions are the hardest parts of an essay; you have to introduce the topic and explain your stance, but you also don’t want to say too much so you won’t end up being repetitive throughout your essay. I feel like my introduction provides just enough information to interest the...

...The closest I ever got to writing a “college level” paper was last year in my AP Language and Composition class. I quickly realized that the papers we wrote in that class were nothing close to the papers we wrote in this class. All the papers written in this class had to be much more detailed and required more components than the past papers I have wrote. The most challenging part of the transition from high school papers to college papers is the length of them. I was not used to writing 3-5 page papers and it was hard for me to do that to make that change. I think the most important thing I learned about myself this semester is that I am capable of writing at the college level. When I first started this course, I imagined myself receiving C’s or lower on my papers and how hard I was going to have to work to improve my essays, but after I got my first essay back I was shocked at the grade and I...

...As I was picking my freshman courses during the summer, I had to enroll in a required ENG 105 course. Immediately, I thought that this course would be easy because all we will do is write essays. I thought I would be fully prepared by just going over Grammar rules and standardized test tips. In retrospect, after I have attended the class for almost the entire semester, I never expected to learn a new process of writing. During my time at high school, we never went over multiple stages of reflections, revisions, or writing skills. I usually just wrote for my enjoyment or for an assignment. I strongly believe that if I had learned these processes in high school, my papers would have benefitted greatly. As this semester comes to an end, I look back at everything I have accomplished in this class. I have acquired many writing techniques through annotations, in – class assignments, and multiple essays. Because of this, I have improved tremendously as a writer. Throughout the time I have spent in this writing course, I was reminded of how effective writing can be. As I further analyze my writing, I realized that I have learned how to become a real writer. The essays included will demonstrate the tremendous amount of strength I have gained in writing this semester. I believe that I am good organizing my writing in terms of placement and topics of each body paragraph. An example of this is in my first essay about my literacy sponsors. I organized the essay by beginning each body paragraph...

...Year Writing Essay Throughout my life, writing has always been a skill necessary for me to excel in many of my classes. Whether it was for research papers, or short journal assignments, writing was always a key component in order to achieve the best grade possible for my classes. Ever since I stepped foot into Elementary school, my skills as a writer have been average or slightly above average at best. My writing style is basic and I usually follow somewhat of a similar formula for most of my papers. My weak points as a writer would be my creativity and vocabulary. I also wish to improve my ability to draw the reader in during my introduction paragraphs. I always seem to take ages to write my introduction paragraph for my papers, and this causes me to spend a lot of time on my essays. My strong points as a writer would be my structure and my ability to get my message across to the reader. I am confident in my writing in the sense that I can get the job done, but know that my writing could be heavily improved. There are three instances in my life that made me realize my skills as a writer. The first would be my English tutor, who guided me at the beginning of middle school. She laid down the formula and gave me the skills in order to ace all of my basic middle school papers. The second would be the realization that my writing was not good as I thought it was after my first couple of papers in High School, and finally the last instance, which was my college essay. My mother...

...beginning for this quarter the way my attitude was toward this class was why do I even need to take this course? I felt that I already know how to write in an appropriate manner especially since I do it on a daily at work but when it comes to a proper essay or the etiquette and structure I had no clue whatsoever. I honestly did hate the fact that out of every course I have so far taken this course had the most homework and now I understand why since there is so much to learn about the guidelines within a perfectly appropriate paper. Throughout the course I have found out there are many types of essays that are typed for appropriate matters or when it comes to certain points that need to stand out. There is the expository paper which is when you need to explain a theme or an idea to your intended audience and this style has a well-defined thesis. A persuasive essay is when you try to convince the audience or reader on a position you have about a certain topic or point of view. You are trying to persuade the readers and let them know you are correct. Analytical essay is when you analyze and examine a type of product which can consist of a book, poem or even a play or major even that happened. This essay basically explains the topic you want the audience to understand and you state the facts about the topic and inform them about everything you know with proof. Argumentative essays are a type of essay with your own personal opinion, theory and hypothesis about an issue that is correct...

...not just about how my essays were written on a computer. It is about how these repeated actions developed who I am as a writer, along with the quality of my work. I truly believe my writing has blossomed this year because I have finally imposed a step-by-step process of writing that works for me. In addition, I was able to fully connect with the literature I read, resulting in the reveal a new writer’s personality within me. Moreover, I am beginning to understand the piecemeal writer burgeoning inside me throughout the essays I have written in english class and how it has shaped my compositions through the different strategies I took, style, and organization. Writing essays in the beginning of the year was somewhat troublesome, to be honest, because my style, organization, and strategies for writing, were a complete mess. As a result...

...The Good The Bad and The Ugly I can recall a time when I had to write a paper for English Composition I. I was attending Ivy Tech Community College at that time. The professor asked the class to write a paper about our major, my major was Early Childhood Education. This experience I had at Ivy Tech was not my first when it came to writing a formal essay, but it was just as nerve wrecking as the first time. When I began writing formal essay papers, in high school, it was not easy for me. In the first part of this essay, I review my experience with writing in my childhood, then I will be talking about my terrifying writing experience in high school, and finally the years that have passed since I have not written any formal essays. In the second part of the paper, I describe my experience with Microsoft word, my experience with using MLA formatting style, and my experience using documentation in research papers. In my childhood, I have been state to state and attended...
