Writing Class Reflection Essay

The best writing course ever! I have had many English courses over the past school years with a variety of great teachers but none of those courses could compare to this English class taught by Ms.Lanhem. This course has really expanded my education in writing it has gave writing a whole new meaning to me. I’ve never really liked writing and found it quite difficult sometimes but now when I write I feel stress free like I can just go on forever. I feel as if I can just go ahead and publish it to become an author I truly look at my writing as a work of art. This class has greatly increased my confidence level in writing and has increased my skills immensely on punctuation.
This class has been a live saver when I comes to writing. Before I showed up to this class I wasn’t really confident in my writing I believed this would easily be my hardest class due to the fact that

When it comes to writing a paper punctuation is the most important part because without it the paper would just have run-on sentences everywhere it would be a complete mess. Punctuation is what keeps the paper organized looking good it makes the essay understandable if there wasn’t any punctuation the reader would just get completely lost in the story and that’s exactly what the writer doesn’t want. Punctuation has always been one of my weakest points in writing; I have struggled with it since the day I was first introduced to it. When I first attended my English class I was worried about messing up on every paper I wrote due to my lack of understanding on punctuation. It took me a while to learn where to place commas, periods, apostrophe, etc. I had to work hard and practice to learn how to do all that and it has finally paid off. I’m able to correct papers and be like “that’s not supposed to be there and neither is that oh this needs to be fixed to” unfortunately I haven’t mastered it so I do also make mistakes on it but I have come a long way from where I

    During this summer session of ENGL101A, I have learned multiple ways to express myself through my writing. In fact, before signing up for this class, I did not know the proper way to compose an academic essay for a particular audience, and how to properly cite my sources. Nevertheless, after the short summer session, I am able to define my purpose and audience, analyze critically any piece of information, and write with proper citations and fewer grammatical errors with confidence. Through the short time of 5 weeks, I learned how to focus on my audience as well as how to define the purpose of my papers as academically as possible.…

    This semester I took a class that was new to me. I knew absolutely nothing about journalism coming into MMC2100. The most valuable assignments were the AP practices. Although I was frustrated because I bought the online access to the www.apstylebook.com which ended up not having page numbers for some assignments. In the end, the constant use of AP style helped make it come more natural for some bigger projects further along in the semester.…

    Portfolio reviewers: My pre-ECU 2201 experience was my English 1100 course. While taking this class online, I learned how to make an interesting essay. Though this class didn 't require much research, it taught me how to write an interesting essay. Most of the time the professor gave us the decision to write whatever we wanted to write on. There might been some times where he wanted us to write a specific topic, but still had the chance to write whatever we wanted within the topic.…

    Throughout this semester, I have genuinely learned a lot. AP College English is definitely a difficult course for me, but I have strived to make efforts in changing that. It’s difficult to pinpoint all the things that I have learned during the course. I have learned many things about novels, authors, grammar, writing, reading, and the list goes on. Every year in English I have learned something new and this year is absolutely no different.…

    No matter where you go or went to school, you always have some type of English class that forces you to write papers. These papers usually has to be a certain way or over a certain topic. To me that was a pretty big problem for me because I could do free writing easy, but when you tell me to write about something that I don 't have any interest in and I have to follow your “rules”, then I will just try to blow it off. I have always hated the way Professors and the world had this “image” of their version of a “perfect” essay. I always messed up on the rules like where to put my commas or semicolons, that to me is the hardest part to not have a run- on sentence.…

    This English class has been very helpful in my efforts to improve my writing abilities, but has also been very challenging due to there being a different median for every essay. It’s been a heavy work load especially this semester since I decided to enroll in five classes, but in the end it has been very beneficial indeed. I can’t say that writing essays has been one of my strong points but I believe that this course has helped me improve tremendously and it has also made me feel a lot more comfortable with my writing. While in high school I would usually write all of my essays a day before the due date a habit of mine that was very difficult to overcome, but now I have learned from my mistakes.…
