The beauty of syntax and diction is a huge factor to why English is my most treasured subject. Having the ability to structure articulate pieces of writing is an essential. I love being able to evoke emotion through the precise use of words. Also, essays are involved in almost every course, so loving the most commonly execrated part of school gives me an advantage. Vocabulary says a lot about a person, and all of the endless flash cards i have made for english tests have contributed towards my…

Making a dart for English 1A Through this class, I gained confidence on writing an essay. Before EWRT 200 class, I had many questions such as “what is the essay? What to write about? Where to put transition? Why do we have to write an essay?” However, when I went up to EWRT 211, some other profound questions came up with my mind, which were “How to make connection with the given idea and my idea? How to make a more strong detail?”, rather than those above questions that I though, when I was EWRT…

Diversity Essay As I set out to write this essay, I did what I usually do when I write. I made an outline and a few lists to help facilitate my writing. I began to draft a list of words to describe myself. The more I looked at these words the more I felt that they were just labels, like I should fit in a neat little box.

Some difficulties that I’ve encountered during this essay was picking a topic that I could write about in three different genres. I was able to overcome this problem by thinking of a very broad topic, at first I was only gonna write about food in general, but it turned out to be three whole essays on Chipotle which was very intriguing. This first essay, “Evaluation” reminded me of the short evaluation assignment we did in…

thought it was just going to be a class where I write essays by the high school standards but my opinion quickly changed. I chose the first essay that I had written in this course in which I really connected to and had a big emotional attachment to the topic I chose. Bullying is a very common topic, and was easy to revise my essay into something else such as the book I wrote. The things I learned in this class made revising my narrative essay so much easier. This class made me such a smarter…

Self-Reflective Essay Countless people have shared with me the wisdom that college is one of the utmost important steps I can take in order to achieve my dreams. While it is definitely not the easiest step, I understand that it is a necessity in joining my dream career path. When I was informed that within my high school, I would have an opportunity to take a college level class, I immediately knew I would register for this class. I knew the curriculum of a college level class would be much…

In my argument essay I used examples as one of my expository strategies. I gave examples of past events in my essay to help the reader understand my point of view. In the short story “The Birthmark”, I used analysis to make the story clearer, so I could fully understand the text and write about it. A thesis asserts the main idea of your topic or argument of your paper, and a topic sentence starts a paragraph and gives the reader an idea of what the paragraph will be about. Both of these are…

I was aiming to…
