Recommended: Importance of argumentative essay

English IV helps give people an extra english credit. It really easy if you do your work and pay attention. English is an important part of school system, it helps people use correct punctuation, grammar, and also helps some people spell correctly. There are other English classes, but English IV really prepares you for college. It teaches students how to properly write essays as you would in college. Overall, it is a fun class and enjoyable. I learned many different things this past semester. I have learned to write an essay using the MLA format. I also learned that trying and paying attention helps you pass the class. I think the one thing i have improved on is writing essays. I used to be terrible at them and always using incorrect punctuation, but after writing essays and getting feedback on them i have gotten a lot better at it. This may be the last essay i do write, but if it isn’t I will be prepared on the correct way to write one. …show more content…

Some people think that they won’t do some of the things this class teaches, but it’s better to know them and not use them, than not know them and use them. There are other things that i learned and improved on in this class. I am grateful that i know them too. I think the assignments i have done better on would be all the essays. I have done a lot better on them. I haven’t rushed on them like i have on other essays in past english classes. I actually took time to write them made sure i corrected most of my mistakes. My favorite assignment was the 25,000 giveaway essay. That particular essay helped me on english and math. It used a lot of adding and subtracting on it and to precise on the price so i wouldn’t go over or to far under the limit too

    Before this quarter started I was fairly confident that I had what it took to ace English 101. After the first paper, I realized I was mistaken. Throughout this quarter I have had numerous problems with my writing that proved I needed to do a little more studying to help take my writing to the college level. Although I did not fail any of my papers, there was plenty of room for improvement. All the areas I needed to improve on are all areas that I think every English 101 student should know. I believe that every student at the college level should know how to cite sources correctly, know how to use good transitions, and know how to properly elaborate their examples.

  • What I Learned this Semester about Myself as a Writer

    977 Words  | 2 Pages

    Over the course of this semester I learned a lot about myself as a writer. This English 101 class has really allowed me to expand my essay structure and ways of thinking. This was my first college writing course and it has given me much more freedom when writing because in high school I felt limited and like what we were writing was not very important. In high school I would write essays to just to fulfill the required word or page count and to a degree I still feel like this but maybe that is why I am an engineering major but in this course I actually was able to express my ideas and for the first time really test the limits of my writing capabilities. I really enjoyed being able to incorporate my voice more in my essays and I believe that I developed my own personal style a bit from this. At the beginning of the semester my writing was quite choppy and there was plenty of room for improvement in the overall flow of my essays. Now, I use several different tactics such as outlining to create better connections between paragraphs. I believe I was able to move beyond many of the high school ways of writing and make general improvements to my essays.

  • Reflective Essay on College Writing

    838 Words  | 2 Pages

    This semester was my very first semester as a college student. Being the first, it was probably the semester I would learn the most in. I learned the expectations for writing that I will have to live up to for the next four years of my college career. Though my high school teachers were usually demanding because I was in the Honors English section throughout high school, writing in college has still ?raised the bar? for me. Also, in high school, we would have weeks to pick a topic, create a thesis, outline the paper, write the paper, and then revise the paper. In college, the time restraints are not quite as lenient. I?ve had to learn to manage my time and be more productive with what free moments I have. Strangely enough, I?ve found the college English experience to be much more rewarding and enjoyable than in high school.
