Recommended: Introduce effective study skills and habits

Before my senior year I was a high C low B student doing the bear minimum in all my classes and definably wasn’t college ready. I heard a rumor that AP English 4 was the hardest course at my high school so being stubborn person I was I decided to enroll in it. I remember walking into that class the first day and seeing a two headed demon baby doll among a collection of weird creepy dolls and I knew that I made a mistake. The teacher wore all black and contently discouraged us by telling us that a good chunk of us will drop the class before the semester ends. I constantly struggled with keeping up with the content because of my bad study habits I acquired over the years like procrastination and being unorganized but I made a great effort to

    I was taking AP World History, my first AP class. Keeping up my grades in the class was one of my biggest concerns, but surprisingly, it turned out to be a relatively laid-back class without much homework. Throughout the year, the class was mainly notes and document analysis. The only difficult part of the class was the tests. They were long and arduous with several vague questions based on specific parts of the curriculum that we had only gone over lightly. The course became more vigorous as the exam date drew closer; we began writing more essays, the tests we took grew longer, there were after school study sessions, and even a mock

  • English 111 Reflection Paper

    For my Final Reflection Essay I attempted to focus on the most obvious adjustments I made from writing high school papers to producing college level essays. This approach compelled me to examine a few of the papers I submitted in high school and look back on the steps I took to write them. By reviewing my previous work I realized that during Dr. Kennedys English 111 class I have effectively learned how to apply an outline, utilize research, and incorporate that research into my final paper. English 111 has helped me to understand the importance of the multiple steps of writing a great college level essay by forcing me to complete each step individually. My overall performance in this class has been above average and I have really demonstrated dedication to improvement.

    Over the course of five weeks we’ve had to write three essays (four if you include this one). With every essay I’ve written I have improved my writing process. Having the chance to practice my writing skills in English 102 has made me a better all-around writer. From the beginning of this course, I knew I had a few major issues that I needed to overcome to improve my writing. The biggest being my issues with punctuation, specifically comma splices. Comma splices are something that I just can’t seem to wrap my head around. Although I have gotten better at recognizing comma splices they still seem to sneak in to my writing.

  • English 110 Class Reflection

    Based on the term grads, effort, and attendance, I will make a 90 in English 110. I believe this will be true due to the progress I have made in my writing ability. When we started this class, I had little to no confidence in my ability to write well. Now that the class is at its end, I have a sense of assurance that I will be able to complete works in my future classes with little to no assistance from outside sources. The grades I did receive in this class never dropped below the 90s, but I do believe the effort and amount of checking I did on my composition three will be a metaphorical hole in my grads boat. I admit that I didn’t give it my all and have only myself to blame for whatever grade I do end up receiving on it.

    Relief, worry, and doubt are only three words that run through my head as I write this final exam for my English Composition class. As I entered the class I felt as though it was going to be an easy A for me, because I did so well on my COMPASS test I thought I would do well in this class. Then I quickly realized I am not as good at writing as I thought I was. This class is intended to turn a not so good writer into a decent writer and to enhance the skills of writing all together. As was determined by my instructor and peers I am one who needed plenty of guidance throughout this class. As I went through each writing project I seemed to have the same errors or mishaps in each project. Run-on sentences, quotes and paraphrases, and

    English 102 (Writing and Research about Culture) had a main purpose of teaching students how to write research papers. This course also taught how different perspectives and prejudices are based on the language that it uses. Examples of these prejudices included: sexism, ageism, ableism, heterosexism/homophobia, and racism. Since English 102 is a class that focuses on writing, one of the major lessons included learning how to write a proper essay. For example, I learned that the basic outline of an essay included: the intro, body, and conclusion. The parts of the essay then further breaks down into the basic parts of a paragraph. The basic parts of a paragraph include: a transition sentence, a topic sentence, supporting sentences, and a concluding sentence. In this class, I also

What helps me the most is reading required text, going through the course pack, and creating discussion. Reading the textbooks prepare me to write my narrative essay. The Concise

    Throughout my journey in my English 12, i've had many ups and downs which caused me to take a step back, slow down and focus on what's most important. Coming into this class I thought I would be able to breeze through it ,due to the fact that we didn't have an SOL and it was virtual. My initial observation of English 12 was totally wrong, and the class ended up being a slight challenge for me; especially since then new semester began I was working 3 jobs. After all, I decided that I was too young to be stressing and that my main priority should be school. I taught myself how to stay focused and how dedicate my time to my school work, all while remaining calm. Throughout this course I enjoyed doing most of the things we did such as watching

    Over the years I have struggled with my English classes, but never give up. It has been a little over four years since I have attended school, it seems I have forgotten a lot I had learned in the past. During these past eight weeks in this English class I will admit I have spent countless hours writing, thinking, planning, dreading, and of course learning. Sometimes I felt like quitting and I could no longer go on but I continued to try my best complete each assignment, even when I was lost and the instructions were not clear enough for me to understand. As a student, mother and wife I will not give up but only continue to learn as I make this journey through writing.
