In the fall, I took the English 1001 class. I knew the class would personally be a struggle for me from my past writing attempts. I knew I had to pass this class in order to graduate, so it had a lot of importance to me. It was overwhelming to me throughout the class. Towards the end of the class, though, I saw a significant change in how quickly and smoothly I could write an essay. Before I ever took the class, I was a very limited writer. I had short essay assignments all throughout high…
am taking an American history class that I need to graduate from TSCC, and I find it boring then something I could do is convince myself that what I am learning is important and find something interesting about it. These could help me remember, at least it says that in the book. For me, I would also take a lot of notes and reread it as many times as needed. With one of the examples I used in this, I think it would also work for if I am taking an American history class that I need to graduate…
Professor Weaver, I am writing in response to the grades given for ENG 113. I am concerned about the final grade you gave me and would like to express my feelings about the grade in hopes that you would reconsider. I have always been taught to do my very best regardless of what it takes to succeed as long as it is within biblical standards. I have always looked forward to begin my college career toward one day becoming an Orthodontist. This has always been a dream of mine. We chose TFC as…
For the multi-genre project I chose the topic of children refugees. I chose this topic because I believe that every human being was placed on this earth to do something miraculous, that would change the world for the better.

I believe that if the world comes together as one, these refugees will no longer be seen as outsiders, and they can eventually show the world who they and their gifts. Throughout the process…

Becoming a good writer is a lot like becoming a good mathematician. It takes years of studying and hard work. But according to Ann Handley, there are nine simple rules that you can follow to become an excellent writer. The first thing is to ask yourself these four questions often as you are writing: “What am I trying to say? What words will express it? Is this image fresh enough to have an effect? Can I put it more shortly?” George Orwell, author of “The Animal Farm” said he asked himself these…

Another key thing I was taught was how to write for different audiences. Here are a few examples of the things I have learned. The main thing I was taught was grammar and vocabulary…
I think that no matter what I am writing, I am always writing for a specific reader. Be it work emails or school assignments, I always keep in mind who I am writing to, so that my writing style does not come off as unprofessional, not respectful, or “too proper”. For example, in the design industry, you can never know whether a person will expect complete professionalism from you, or will he want to talk like a human instead of a robot. When writing emails to clients, coworkers or the boss, I…
starting at Belhaven my emails were anything but detailed and at least once a week I was reminded to use more words. With each class, I learn more tools that will help me with my writing. I have learned to create a formal outline. It has helped me to better understand the content of a research paper. I have 13 hours invested in the creation my outline. My professor reminded the class that time spent on the outline would make drafting the paper less difficult. Once I receive feedback on the…
