My Experience In My Writing

Improved Essays
The experience of writing my first essay.
Many people have different experiences in the area of writing but why I had difficulties when I wrote my first essay. Well, all started when I was studying English on another state. I didn’t know even how to write an essay because back home I didn’t do a lot of essays before I graduated from high school. This was a new adventures for me because I tried my best but I still felt that I was doing not so well. Also, it was my first time writing in another language so it was very changeling for me and complicated on the same time. However, I did not give up and I proved myself that I will do but it didn’t work and it was worst and worst every day. Moreover, the professor gave me back my essay and he told me that I needed to changed many things because it didn’t make sense at all. Well I did my second draft and I was better than the first one and in the last draft I did the best I could

At first I was doing my first essay like I was doing back home. It was extremely different even the structure and the techniques. So this was my first mistake. Also, in Latin America is common to write a lot and in the United States is to write the direct things and no more. It was a huge changed but after doing more essay I got used to. To have a good grammar is the primary to have a great essay. Also the order of an essay is the primary things to have but in my case I was not even paying attention to that. For example, when I wrote that essay, I had a lot of run-sentences phrases and a lot of grammar but the schoolteacher told me take your time to revise each mistakes such as, punctuation, grammar, spelling and you will have an excellent essay. Everything he was telling me I was always implementing that on m essay and each commented was very helpful for me and my essay. Thus, if I wanted to do something properly I just needed something to animate

    Over the course of English 102, I have developed a new set of skills and learned to become a better writer. When I first came into English 102 I struggled with many different concepts of writing. During the semester in English 102, my writing became stronger because I learned how to incorporate evidence into my argument, do more thorough research, have smoother transitions, and have more organization throughout my essay. I learned how to peer review better and to take what others say and incorporate it into my essay. In the beginning, before English 102, I struggled with good organization and flow to an essay, sandwich evidence into paragraphs, and having strong arguments in persuasive essays.…

    I also had punctuation errors, putting periods inside of quotations, and capitalizing words that didn’t need to be capitalized. And, I realized that my descriptions were vague, so I started to divulge more details in the essays. I can fix this by either taking out unnecessary details, or by making them into multiple compound sentences. Also I have noticed that I had run on sentences. My essay did have some good qualities to it though.…

    When I first started the rhetoric, inquiry and critical writing course I was unaware of the specific flaws in my writing assignments. During this course not only did I figure out my own style of writing, but I also learned about other writing styles and how I could incorporate them into my own writing. The constructive criticism given by my peers and professor improved my way of writing. The hardest obstacle I had to face while writing was staying on topic. I gave too much information about a general topic instead of focusing on a small portion and brainstorming from there.…

    A student in an English class can write an outline for their essay that does not help them as much as it could. Although most outlines will improve your writing and the organization of your essay, a well thought out outline that you put your full effort into will give you a better chance to succeed. An example of this in my writing is the outline for my first essay, in this outline a lot of things in my outline were thrown out because the outline was not well thought out and was thrown together. This shows how at my early stages of this class my thinking about what I was going to write was not all the way there because there was not a solid frame to build off of when writing. My next essay went better because I put more effort into organizing my essay so I had the best chance to succeed.…

    I’m not confident with my ability to set up my paragraphs in essays because I can’t make my essays flow. My papers get very boring because I can be repetitive in my essays and I tend to lose focus on the purpose of the essay. In addition, my introductions are my weakest point because a paper can’t be strong without a strong introductory paragraph. I never learned any good ways to make a paper intriguing from the start and I think it can make my essays memorable.…
