I am a Business Student at San Jose State University, majoring Management Information System. This English class that guides me how to write effectively is very helpful for me right now and in the future. There are three assignments throughout this class including rhetorical analysis, discipline investment and critical reading reflection. My best one among these assignments is CRR paper.

It is very helpful for me in organizing for the essay by focus what the prompt wants and develop it from explanation.

I applied all of these steps into this last assignment. Moreover, my paper
