Unit 11 Exercise 1: Reflection Essay Over the course of these last eleven weeks I have discovered more about my writing skills than I thought I had. In the beginning I had neutral feelings about how well I would do in this course. I’ve always known that I had good writing techniques, but have been out of school for over 10 years and wasn’t sure if I could still write like how I used to.

It has been over a decade since I have completed high school, I have noticed the delay in my education throughout this class. When I began school in January I was apprehensive with the course material, as well as the work that was required.

Reflection Going through the English 102 has taught me so much more than stuff about writing in the discipline. I have learned here how to write and express myself, how to think for myself, and how to find the answers to the things that I don't know. Most importantly I have learned how important writing is.

Self-Reflection portfolio When I signed up for this class in the summer I was unsure what exactly this class included. I was not very confident in myself as a writer because I had never been challenged. I also didn’t know of MLA, colloquialism, or any of the rules.
