My contribution to this class, English 101, in my opinion is a lot. I always try my best when in the classroom and out of the classroom. While I'm in class if I'm every asked a question I always answer it to the best of my ability. Also, if I'm in class and a question is openly asked I always try to answer it. I don’t answer all the questions because I necessarily want to, I answer them because most of the other students in the class don’t. I am really proud of myself when it comes to this class
11:15 on Monday, August 17, 2015, my first official college class, English 1101, began. In general, I had no idea what college classes would be like let alone how college English would be. Even though this class taught me a great deal in one semester, it took a large amount of time and effort to make the adjustment from high school. The simplistic writing style of high school was put to rest the moment the first college English class began. As a result, I learned quickly that college writing is complex
entering college, I was actually quite nervous about what to expect from my Composition I class. I’d seen the films, read the articles and heard from others about all the insane deadlines and stress that came with that. I never enjoyed writing or English class in general, but taking Composition I has changed my views on both. This class has benefitted me in several ways, as both a student and a writer. I have learned how to write more effectively, expanded my writing methods, and learned how to properly
As I look back on my English 101 experience, I have come to the conclusion that I have learned many new things that have improved my abilities as a writer. I have learned some new techniques that have improved my ways of approaching an essay. I learned all about the rhetorical appeals and how to apply them in my writing and how to look for them in a essay written by a author. I have also learned how to argue both sides of a argument, and how to look for reliable sources and to properly quote and
My experience with my academic writing it comes from the past years in different classes, that I have taken here in Texas Tech University. I have taken some couple classes in the science department, a law class. In my law class I had to write an academic paper, explain the different types a law that will apply in a wind energy industry. This academic writing was done in the law class, but that was different from English class. The writing in the science class was little bit like the writing that
Before I went into this class I knew how to write stories but I didn't write them as good as I do now. I wrote stories when I first went into 10th grade and I didn't know how to write them too well. I never really put in semi colons and transition words in my sentences. When Mrs. Martinez showed me the sheet for the transition words the sheet helped me improve my vocabulary as well as writing sentences. She also show me how to use semi colons and write meaningful sentences using them. Sometimes
elementary school, I learned to write sentences. As time went on I learned to put those sentences in a paragraph, which was three to at least five sentences. When I finally entered the high school, I learned to put those paragraphs together which will make the essay. When I was in Composition one , I know that writing had so much more than just having five paragraph. The writing was a way of expressing your creativity, idea, values, and emotion. Throughout composition one i have learned that there
What do you think of when you hear the word literature? Most people think that literature is just analyzing poems that have no real meaning behind them or writing a 10 page essay that your English teacher assigns you to do in one night. But recently I have learned that literature plays one of the biggest roles in a person 's life. You use reading and writing every single day. Reading texts, reading traffic signs, writing emails, and the music that you listen to are all examples of literature that
From the lustful feeling consumed within my soul I gained by writing obstructed by the overbearing slaughter of never being good enough, reality struck. I knew I needed to find an English class that would be able to help me overcome my life long writing obstacles and that is exactly what English 100 did for me. Ever since a young age, English has never been my strong point. The most common errors I seemed to struggle with consisted of grammar, putting my thoughts into words, and knowing the difference
