Cover Letter Assignment Analysis

The assignment I chose to make revisions to was the Resume and Cover Letter assignment. I chose this assignment not only because of my letter grade, but also because I feel this assignment will be beneficial in my future when sending off a cover letter and resume to potential employers. To begin, I made changes to my cover letter. There were a few sentence structure errors. For example, “With reference to your advertisement in The University of Tennessee Knoxville Center of Development, I am writing you with regard to the job opening for a Forensic Accountant.” I moved the “I am writing you with regard to the job opening for a Forensic Accountant” to the beginning of the sentence; therefore, Mrs. Harwell knows what position I am sending my

    When this assignment was assigned, I knew I wanted to choose the two assignments I knew that were going to help me the most later in life. After a semester of learning about email etiquette, the job application process, designing PowerPoints, and research methods, I knew I had a lot to choose from. I wanted to make sure I chose, in my eyes, the two best documents I turned in. The two documents I have selected to revise for this portfolio are the email package from unit one and my job application from the document redesign portion in unit three. I chose the email package because I feel as if I have shown great professionalism within the emails I created.…

    The Grade I Should Get in ESL 203 In ESL 203 I should get a grade A, which is the highest grade of the course. Wilmington University offers the course “English as a Second Language: Advanced Grammar and Writing” (ESL 203), which is designed for international students to “learn about the writing process, features of specific essay types, developing content, and expressing themselves in comprehensible and grammatical language” (Wilmington University, 2016a). Even though I still make mistakes, but I can do the self-check to correct common grammatical errors and successfully completed all the course requirements.

    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.…

    Progress Paper This is a reflection of my evaluation on my progression from the first essay I wrote to the second. Looking back at the first essay I wrote in this class titled “My Experiences” and the second essay I wrote titled “The Variety of Family Structures in Today’s Society” I noticed several things. I had wording choice and punctuation errors in both essays, but my body paragraphs had good development. I needed to elaborate more with certain topics that I brought up, but my thesis statements and conclusions were good.…

    English 219 was my first college level English course, and through attending and completing all of the assignments I have learned many skills that I believe will greatly help me in my future courses in college. Next semester I am enrolled in English 220, and after having taken this course I feel substantially better about continuing on with English courses at a college level. It has helped me to become more confident in my writing skills and provided me with an excellent basis for me to continue on with next semester, and throughout the rest of my schooling experience. Throughout this class I have learned many things, but perhaps the most important is the steps to writing an essay, and the planning options.…

    Working with a team for an online class has its challenges. For one, people are in different time zones so meeting for online discussions does not always work for all members of the team. When this happens, emails are a vital tool for communication for four students wanting to make the best product they can. As I look through Tuckman’s model I can see how this developed within our team but since most of the communication happened by email it took away some quality team development associated with the model. I think we did an excellent job always keeping in contact with each other when we could not meet for a discussion.…
