Eng 102 Research Paper

Improved Essays
It has come to my knowledge that there is a limited amount of spots in the ENG 102 class for next semester. I am one of the best candidates to continue into ENG 102 and thrive in Ms. Laduca’s learning environment. Although I do not fear that I have not already earned my spot, I will proceed to justify my case.

I have been an adroit student of Ms. LaDuca’s for the last year and a half; she knows exactly what kind of student I am. Since seventh grade, I have been an ebullient honors student in the top ten percent of the 2016 cohort and have not received any grades lower than an A. I always exceed expectations, put in 110% of my effort, and achieve and maintain excellent grades at the same time. All of the 12 dual enrollment credits I will have earned by the end of ENG 102 will be very beneficial to me once I enter the University of Arizona as a callow first generation college student.

LaDuca’s ENG 102 class. First, I have achieved nothing but success in the English classes that precede ENG 102. I adapted very well to the fast-paced environment in ENH 111, ENH 110, and ENG 101. I earned a ninety-seven percent in both semesters last year, and I am fervent to complete this semester with a ninety-eight percent in ENG 101. Ninety-five percent of students are besieged by stress that thwarts them in a college-level course by the first week of school; not me. I am more organized than most students are and for that reason I have produced stellar papers that effectively demonstrate all of the skills I have developed over the last year and a half. People like me are very rare and should be seen as that. We do not come along very often and not everyone gets the opportunity to have a brilliant student participate in their course. I am equipped with ample knowledge and experience from previous English classes and deserve to expand my foundation of knowledge in which I will have built with my spot in ENG

    Over the course of this semester I learned a lot about myself as a writer. This English 1010 class has really allowed me to expand my essay structure and ways of thinking. When I first started this course, I was scared and didn’t really know what to expect. I branched out to different styles and types of essays as well as incorporating outside sources into my work. When I received my first essay back with the feedback and the grade, I realized that I was not a really good writer.…

Although before this course I knew how to write papers, I had trouble expressing my thoughts effectively in my writing. After this semester I feel have started to overcome the the struggle and I know it is because of the past essay assignments and class activities we did this semester.…

    Throughout the entirety of this English 101 course, I have seen my skills as a writer grow. In the beginning of the school year, my writing fell short of my expectations, but as I continued to work and learn the principles of writing, I have written papers that I am proud to say are mine. Among the aspects of my writing I have improved, the best strives are seen within my my counter arguments and overall strength and coherency of my papers. To begin, when looking at a paper I wrote in August on necessity of first drafts, there were large gaps in my elaboration, bringing concerns as to whether I was arguing and proving a point or merely summarizing what Lamott, the author of the article, originally said. When attempting to argue my evidence, I stated,…

    Everyone hates English class is what I thought before taking English 102. However, that may have been the case before I entered Dr. Byrd’s domain, but after finishing the class I have come to the realization that English class can be greatly resourceful. English 102 this year has had its ups and downs, and I must admit the ups outweigh the downs. Meaning, this year, I have learned that I am not a student who wants to read or write, but through reading and writing my mind and skill sets concerning English have grown. During English 102 this year, reading and writing in class helped me expand my writing skills, improved my will to comprehend, and most importantly helped expand my knowledge.…

In the end, I can reflect that I learned from my mistakes and wrote papers that took time and dedication to accomplish. I learned from this class to be confident in my writing and make all the mistakes to receive the grade I want in the end.…
