Thesis Statement Analysis

Decent Essays
When I compare my writing with another piece of writing, I can clearly spot the mistakes on my own writing. One thing I would change for next time is the way I organized my writing because I want to include most important detail at first and the least important detail at last. Additionally, one thing I would try to improve on my writing assignment next time is that correcting pronounce references and modifying repetitive ideas. However, one thing I am most proud of about my writing is that I have a clear purpose and the thesis statement. Since I have a clear thesis statement, I should have also added more specific details in the essay about my perception to clarify to the readers. If I were to rewrite this essay, I would do little more research

    I didn’t have a thesis in my original exam draft, because I didn't know what a rhetorical analysis was. The lack of a thesis made it very hard to properly organize my essay. My new thesis is "In his passage he focuses on three states of mind that he attributes to the existence of slaves. These three states of mind are happiness, loneliness, and anger and are chosen because they are easily relatable and make the audience more open to his story. " This new thesis is stronger because it directly adresses the prompt and provides a foundation on which to write my essay.…

    I formatted my paper the way I did for a specific reason. I did not make a specific argument to make a point. I wanted to make the point that there are two sides of every argument and that you do not have to pick a specific belief, instead you should be open to others belief. The fact that you wanted us to pick a specific argument about something that we may not care about or have any belief or opinion about is something that I did not want to do. I think that people should have their beliefs however they should be open to other people opinions and beliefs.…

    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.…

    I really liked the way you compared the analogy of a clay artisan and the relationship between children and parents. I agree with you about the fact that spanking can be adopted by the child who has been spanked and repeated this later in his/her own children. I also agree with you that spanking affects child's behavior and social interactions and that spanking should be avoided at all cost. I think you need to work more in your conclusion to improve your work.…

    Title Enrolling the EOF program has lighten up a path in life that would have gone completely undiscovered had I walked alone. Along the path was my introduction to college writing, a class that has improved my writing skills profoundly.

    The three main aspects of my paper that I found myself struggling with was coming up with a clearly stated thematic message, explaining quotes without summarizing, and clear transitions. In addition to these corrections, it was essential that I corrected the multiple grammar mistakes that were made throughout the essay. When coming up with a new thematic message for the paper, I focused on creating a message that was reflected clearly in all of my paragraphs. My initial thematic statement was unclear and very vague.…

    As I have been typing this essay though I have come to realize that I don’t like writing in the slightest other than for practice, it is too time consuming and it bores me. The part of writing that I seem to struggle with is writing itself. This is due to the fact that I don’t have much to say and once I have finished what I actually have to say I have trouble with coming up with more. The only part of writing that I would say that I excel at is the revision process. I have one writing goal, that being to have better grammar, other goals are financial.…

    Final Exam: Self Evaluation Essay I personally can say that I have seen an improvement in my writing since my initial evaluation in the middle of the semester. During my first evaluation I was very confused with many of the general concepts the class held and it reflected in my writing. Answering the questions presented in the midterm evaluation and reviewing my first writing assignment Meta commentary pushed me to try to grasp a better understanding of assignments and ask for more helpful feedback that would benefit me in developing writing especially in the concept of methods and organization. Slowly and surely as the rest of the semester progressed forward I saw an improvement in my writing style and content.…

    Self-Evaluation Essay Little did I know that I was going to learn a lot more than I thought throughout the semester in ENGL 1433. I began the course dreading reading and writing. I just wanted to be done with the class before the class began and go back to science classes. I never have considered myself a good writer or someone who was good at analyzing literature, it was never something I enjoyed. Despite these initial thoughts and preconceived notions, I did, for the most part, enjoy the class.…
