Segue English 0099 is a course designed to accompany English 1101. The program is set up to help students develop and enhance their writing ability. This class was beneficial because it helped me in English 1101 and in my other courses. Segue allowed me to become a more confidant writer. I was informed of many resources that are provided by Georgia Gwinnet College (GGC) to help me improve my writing, such as the Academic Enhancement Center (AEC). Staying awake and participating in class allowed me to learn how to draft and prepare an essay before I start writing it.

Having my paper checked prior to turning it in was one of the best decisions I made, while I was enrolled in the Segue and English
