My GSW 1110 instructor is Mr. Klever. He was my Advanced English 11 teacher as well. Therefore, having him for the second year in a row, it made coming into this course much easier. I knew how his teaching style was and I was already use to it, rather than coming into a brand new class with an instructor I knew nothing about or how their teaching style was.

I also used peer edits to help make sure my paper was ready to turn in. I would have about two or three of my peers look and read over my paper and make comments on it on things that I needed to fix or correct. Having these peer editors and learning how to cite my sources correctly will help ready myself for my future academics and my future career effectively. For my research paper which was “Proposing a Solution” I learned how to do my research more effectively. Instead of going to Google and looking something up, I would go to a reliable news source to get my information. By doing this, it would make the information I put in my paper more reliable and more credible. This way when readers would read my paper, they would not be questioning whether my information in my essay was correct or not. By becoming better at this skill, I will be able to use it effectively in both my future academics and my future
