As mentioned countless times above, during my time in this class, I would love to obtain the writing skill of writing papers that are more condensed and attentive to the matter I am addressing at that point in time. Professionals and even non-professionals will not want to waste their time reading something that could have been addressed in a fewer sentences and words. If I want to stand out in a crowd of equally educated occupational therapists, I need to make sure my writing is formatted and addressed in a professional manner. As a result, I am looking forward to learning how to make myself look as professional as I can in writing. Nevertheless, with learning to write proper papers and documents comes the challenge of making sure enough time is included within my study of this particular course. …show more content…

Currently, my biggest obstacle when it comes to having enough time to dedicate to all of my studies is that of my role as the Stage Manager for the current musical production of SMILE at The University of Findlay. As the Stage Manager, I am required to be and take notes at every rehearsal; be a facilitator between every member of the production team, cast and crew; and write emails and daily rehearsal reports to the appropriate people. I would say that I send an average of 6 hours a day working on tasks for the musical. Therefore, I run myself thin in finishing other tasks that are very important to my education. With that in mind, I will try my best to keep up with everything assigned with a positive and dedicated attitude so that my work is professional in and outside of the

There is a massive demand of writing because the prerequisites involve a lot of science, English and physiology based classes. A student studying occupational therapy especially does a lot of writing when the student beings their field work. When I decided to choose, this major I knew I would need to expand my writing skills. Since any major in the medical field involves extensive work in writing research papers. When I began to start college, I did not have a lot of education in writing research papers. Although I attempted to prepare myself to the best of my ability I still was weak in writing research papers. I made it a goal to learn how to correctly write one, and that is why I took research and writing in the disciplines. As taking this class has helped clarify how to write a research paper in many different formats such as, MLA and APA. In doing so, this class has also taught me how to correctly cite in papers, it has become asset in sharpening my writing skills. Which I will need because I will be attending graduate school for my major and they will demand a well written researcher paper. I also continue to sharpen my writing skills to prepare myself because in many of my classes I have written a research paper and now have become familiar with the format for theses essay.

Growing up, I didn’t have much. My father was a high school drop out, and my mother was away in the Navy. What I did always have however, were stories and books, and lots of them that were read to me. Almost every night my grandma or my aunt would sit down and read me a story as I feel to sleep. I became attached to the books, knowing them by the contents inside and the front covers, even memorizing a few of them by heart.

Throughout the past five years my passion for English literature and writing has been ignited thanks to the many teachers that have guided and introduced me to this intriguing world. Viewing this subject as a necessary evil in the beginning, I am astonished that I have come to say that although time consuming and tedious, I am thankful for everything these courses have provided.

Over the course of my academic career, I have faced my fair share of challenges. From the time I started school as a young child, education did not come as naturally to me as it did for a majority of my classmates. The most memorable of these struggles, and the one I am most grateful to have gone through, was mastering the art of reading and writing. For a vast majority of my elementary schooling, I was pulled out of my classroom environment to work with a special tutor to strengthen my ELA skills. With haste, I began to see the hours I put in materialize into successes, and every milestone I hit filled me with the joy of a job adequately done.

I’ve had a lot of things in my life that I’ve taken for granted; we all have. I never considered the fact that my ability to read and write would be one of those things. I’ve always considered reading and writing a basic human task that everyone in this day and time knew how to do. While I grew up in a relatively poor community, the majority of people my age had common knowledge of reading, writing, and other elementary level skills. At least, that was what I thought.

I believe students who want to be good writers, must first become good readers. Before starting this course I was a fairly new reader. Obviously, my whole life I was able to read English, but just recently I had begun reading for fun. It was hard to believe that I could learn through reading because of my lack of ability to pay attention or comprehend texts; fortunately this wasn’t the case once I found books that interested me. The books I read were mostly Christian related books and I was surprisingly able to learn a lot from them.

The words reading and writing used to make me cringe. The thought of putting my own ideas down on paper gave me complete anxiety. And worse, the thought of reading 300 plus words made me sick. When assigned papers and reading my stress level would rocket, to the point where I didn’t even want to try. It wasn’t until I realized who my sister was as a writer and reader that, I too, could become half of where she was at. Not only did my sister help me realize who I am as a reader and writer, she made me realize that I could actually enjoy the things I hated most. With the help of my sister and my 12th grade English teacher, I was able to pinpoint what my level as a reader and writer was and helped me learn to question and look into something with a deeper understanding, making these two things seem much easier.

I learned to write like most people did. It was a skill passed on to me by my family. My Grandpa taught me how to write. When I was 3 and 4 years old I did not go to preschool like most kids my age did. Instead each day before work my mom would drop me off at my Grandpa’s house and he would look after me and teach me the things I would need to know to start kindergarten, these days spent at his house were referred to as “Grandpa’s school”. Each day I sat down at the kitchen table and used a stencil to practice my letters. This instilled in me a love for writing.
