Reflective Essay
Part 1: Process Reflections
Essay Summaries: According to the essay requirements, I have written 4 types of essay. Process Analysis essay, Media Analysis essay, Narrative Descriptive essay, and Critical review essay. In Process analysis essay, students were supposed to write a paper on “how to do” something that audience can replicate the process. It includes step by step process from beginning to ending point. I wrote about how to make fried rice. In Media analysis essay required to write about close analysis after watching an episode and interpret about background information what we see and persuade the audience to agree with my viewpoint after make an argument on

In Narrative descriptive essay, students were supposed to write about the most important place, which they get inspired of and tell the story related to that place. We needed to make audience to feel, sense and smell of that place by giving them vivid descriptions in detail. I wrote about Mediterranean Sea, In Pakistan that I consider my most favorite place over all. I gave the sense to audience that how does it feel to be over there and how I met my best friend in such a beautiful place. In Critical review essay, Students were supposed to choose 1 reading topic from the book or the one that discussed in class and evaluate it by making an argument even if we are against the author’s statement about the topic. We supposed to write a clear thesis statement that grabs audience’s attention.

I supported her argument because death in these days are most likely to be happen unnecessary in hospital even when they know they are going to die but they don’t get to

The major assignments help me to improve my writing skills in many ways. In class-work, Pre-Writing, Drafts, Peer reviews, Self-reviews, Revision has a great impact on overall improvement. These strategies not even make me strong writer but a strong reader as well when I gave feedback on my class mates’ essay, it also gives me an idea to interpret someone’s views in my perspective.
2. My progress from one major assignment to the next, demonstrate my writing skills as I write different type of essay at different position. For example, my first essay assignment was Process Analysis essay where I was supposed to write a paper about how to make fried rice with step by step process My second essay, the Media Analysis essay was not enough informative as compared to Process Analysis essay. I had errors like, transition words, repetitive sentences and my thesis statement wasn’t cleared enough. Those mistakes help me to do good on next essay.
3. I feel confident about my writing skills as a writer. I have improved a lot as I did different types of essay throughout the semester because every time I needed to change a position as a writer. Sometimes I had to make an argument against the author’s argument, elaborate someone’s idea into my perspective, and according to audience, I had to convince audience by giving some facts, which they can rely
