The following paragraphs detail the types of writing, features of writing, strengths, and weaknesses of colleagues at GSC.…

Starting off my first semester of college I didn't know what to expect, the first day felt like the first day of high school all over again. With graduation over and the first day of college over, high school was just like college. When entering my reading class it reminded me of my senior writing class but with a twist of personality. What I learned in reading class this semester was more of a review of my senior writing and reading class combined. I enjoyed learning about both topics because it would help my vocab in the essays I would have to write. The thing I liked most about this class was that I had a lot of knowledge about the topic when starting. I knew what we were talking about so it made it more joyful to learn about the subject…

Throughout my youth, I always favored reading assignments where I was required to annotate and discuss questions based on textual evidence. My preference for analytical assignments emerged as the result of numerous failed essays, beginning in the fifth grade and extending to my sophomore year of high school. Therefore, when I enrolled in English Composition 1113, I was skeptical about my ability to complete the required essays. However, despite my doubts, I persevered and improved immensely as a writer.…
English has always been one of my favorite subjects. Writing is a stress reliever for me and it helps me vent. I was glad when I found out I was in a writing class and my expectations were very much met. The class itself was easy yet informative; the teacher has a good way of getting the material across. The work was partnered up well with our books and it helped out a lot for our research papers.…
For example, we learned grammar and correction skills though having the opportunity to correct our class mates’ essays using the review tools on Microsoft word. We read our peers essays, correct the grammatical errors, gave suggestions to word placement, and sentence usage. Reviewing and correctional skills learned will be very helpful in the future as we continue to write essays during college. Seeing other people correct my essays helped me view my essays from different viewpoints. Sometimes letting someone else read your paper can help you come up with an idea to use in your paper that you might not have noticed before.…
