I have successfully finished my first semester in English 111. It has been a very good learning experience for me that has already helped me in other classes. I have enjoyed what I have learned about writing even though at times it has been very stressful. I have managed to show up to every class on time and turn in every assignment. English 111 is a great class to learn how to write effectively and learn to cite work. The work citing activities were probably the most important thing that I learned in class because it was very helpful for the future. My writing strengths and weaknesses have definitely showed throughout this course. My biggest weakness at the beginning was have a proper works cited page.

It was not necessarily an activity but it was one of the things I enjoyed in the class. As far as hating any assignments there were not any but if I had to choose one it would be the argument essay only because of page length. I am just not a big writer so I did not like the number of pages that was required even though it may be under the state

    My experience to English 1101 was totally different from my high school English class, but it was also a good learning experience. Making the transition from high school was a lot different because of the fact that college you only have the class for a semester and in high school you have the same teacher all year. I learned a few things last year in English 1101 that I didn't know. I learned how to do a film analysis on the movie The Village and how the colors from the movie had a meaning behind them. We also learned from the movie how the position of the camera means something.…
