Through the freewriting, I was able to depict important facts that I never thought was important. For instance, the meaning of why my family and culture offer leftover rice to plants and animals. I also found…
Good writing to me means knowing what you are doing. By this I mean you know how to use good grammar, punctuation, etc. I think a good writing piece will also have a noticeable start, body, and end. You know you have written something well when it clearly makes sense and there aren’t errors.…
Writing can be a fun stress relief hobby/activity for many people including me. When it comes to writing essay and research papers I try to pick the most interesting topic that will best fit my interests. By having the opportunity of choosing what to write about it will allow me to organize the paper smoothly. My biggest strengths in writing is providing evidence, and giving credentials, and my biggest weakness in writing is writing my conclusion.…
In all seriousness, my writing is garbage, but it some what improved the slightest bit because I had a professor who actually knows how to teach a English class and not give little hints on telling us if our paper was trash. Instead, we were told straight if it was a good paper or not and it has probably helped me improve the most. In High School, I was always told that my papers were “good,” thankfully I finally had a Professor who can give it to me straight and tell us how we can improve our writing. On all the RRs, RWL, and formal essays that I have written these past twelve weeks, I have gotten educational criticism that has helped my pathetic writing become less pathetic and somewhat college worthy writing.…
I remember, when I was younger, that I wasn't fond with the idea of writing. I remember after writing out paragraphs upon paragraphs my hands always hurting and my brain exhausted from all the mental thinking and processing of writing. However, I would have this feeling; this sensation when I would write with thought, with passion and I carved it. However, it was hard to find a place that was felt the same kind of passion that I felt for writing and could help hone my writing. Then, I found out about BISFA that could help me with my writing, but my English teacher, who was supportive in my decision, told me a question all writers should always themselves, Why do you write? I figured that I would have an answer, but it I didn't. However, it…
Presently, I find myself enjoying setting down on my free time to write. The frustration and fear I had once thought of writing have gone away. At last, I can enjoy the process of writing, coming up with my own ideas and concepts to express my thoughts. Brainstorming, free writing, Star bursting is some of the techniques that have helped me to generate ideas to write papers. These techniques can help me make good argumentative papers for readers, write descriptive papers, narrative, and illustration papers. With this class I have learned how much, I love to write. I have made it a point to communicate my thought and believe through my writing. This English course helped built up my confidences in my own writing for that I am high appreciative of my instructor.…
My writing has been my biggest barrier. To overcome this obstacle, I am using the writing center. Writing webinars have helped me learn strategies to address my grammar and sentence structure problems. I plan to take a writing class at a local college to expand on what I have learned from the writing center. Currently, I am looking for a class that will fit my work schedule and budget. The goal is to improve my writing so I can have my prospectus approved.…
Thinking of creative ways on how to develop my paper is a strong suit I benefit while taking on a writing assignment. When given a topic to write about, I write down what comes into my head. I do not worry about the word count if the sentences make sense on paper or even punctuation. I write to avoid forget any important points I might have thought of. This method of writing is where my weaknesses show. Sometimes what I wrote makes sense in my head, but not on paper. Other challenges I face with writing assignments are time management and punctuation.…
I have never been very good in English class; I find that adverbs, nouns and adjectives confuse me. I have, however, enjoyed composition. I am the kind of writer that writes about anything for any reason. It can be fiction, non-fiction or even a mix of both; but I go on and on until I get bored with it, than stop. Usually when I receive an assignment, I just start writing and writing and when I think I’m done, I will proof read several times while making changes. If I had to compare my writing to anything, it would be to fireworks being lit off and flying through the air in an array of colors. However, there are pros and cons to this “writing style”, and even things that need, or should be, changed.…
Throughout the year, my writing has had significant improvements, compared to where I began. First, I began this semester fairly confident in my writing abilities. I thought that I had a strong grasp on writing concepts that include: transition words, literary devices, proper grammar techniques, correct paper writing format. In contrast, I felt that I began the year with a weak vocabulary, which has always been one of my weaker areas, If I were to rank myself on day one of class, without knowing all of the material we were going to cover, I would rank my writing skills an eight out of ten.…
My writing has many flaws I have known that since I started writing. But out of all the problems that I have always had, the one that bothers me the most is that I know I am not producing the best work I can possibly get out. I have always been confident in my thoughts and ideas, but every time I starting writing them down they never seem to be able to go the way I want them to go.…
Writing in journals for class or writing stories for entertainment proved to be great fun. The writing level of elementary and middle school was easy to learn and work with. Arriving in high school, I felt confident in my writing skills. High school level writing proved to be more challenging. After English I, I felt unprepared for the rest of my high school writing experience. I grew to become uninterested in writing for the next two years. I procrastinated finishing any writing assignment I was given. Though I received decent grades on my assignments, I could have received better grades had I not procrastinated writing my assignments. My attitude toward writing has changed from disinterested to excited with my Composition I and II classes. I have learned much in the first semester of this course and I have grown to enjoy writing again because of this…
