Final Portfolio Cover Letter.

Improved Essays
Final Portfolio Cover Letter I have always enjoyed writing so I feel like classes such as these help me more than others. Before I finish college I hope to take some sort of creative writing class as I feel as I haven’t given that opportunity much in recent years amidst constant essays on topic that I do not care about. As a writer I believe my biggest strength is that when I start writing I can keep writing almost until I have run out of things to write about or am interrupted for some reason. I also feel as though I’m very good at writing about things I am passionate about and if I care about a topic you will be able to clearly tell when reading what I wrote. I am also good at being organized so when I, for example, lay out an argument in an introduction, I will stick to it until the end. As for weaknesses, the main ones are that I almost never read over a paper after writing it and, unless I have to, I never write multiple drafts. This is mostly due to time constraints and my final product often suffers for it. I have gotten better on this front, though, so it definitely isn’t as big a problem as it used to be. Another problem I have is that I struggle trying to come up with how to begin a paper, with the exception of a paper in high school about why the North won the Civil War where I began with “Contrary to what many southerners might believe, the South shall NOT rise again.” I can never top that and I know it. My process for completing a project varies for every

    Frankly, I do not consider myself as a scholar because I am not at all studious compared to other students, but I will admit that I have become well informed of my weaknesses because of this year’s courses. Fundamental high schools motivate students to attend challenging classes and this is why Godinez was suitable for me; it is only through arduous teaching and workload that I can understand my abilities and strengths. AP classes, for instance, serve to bolster my desire to learn. The most difficult course for me was undoubtedly AP English Language. Writing has never been --and still is not--…

    I’ve experienced many hardships when dealing with writing assignments, but the worst would have to be my Senior Portfolio. After starting the assignment, I learned very quickly that the assignment was going to be the easy compared to gathering all the information needed about myself. I was required to create multiple different essays that consisted of my post-high school plan and a reflective essay. It seemed easy to write essays on myself, but until I was required to write it all down, I never realized how many experiences contribute into making me who I am today. Even though I find it as the most challenging writing assignment, I also see it as the best learning experience to show who I am and how I plan my future.…

But after taking my first English Composition class this fall I realized how much important material and knowledge I have gained. During the class we learned everything from little bits of grammar to writing six page papers. Learning how to start the drafting process on a paper and build an effective was by far the most important skill I have learned in class.

    I think John Jay should make us take this course because English class is one of the most important thing in a student's academic career. We have to make sure everyone in college are able to write a paper before they graduate. Most classes in college, don't really require the students to know how to write a essay. So I feel that taking an English course is very important. In order to pass this class, I must secure and obtain the skills I require to do so.…
