After reading through my Fences essay, I am happy with how the essay turned out but in the future their are areas I think I can improve on. I felt as though my thesis was strong and demonstrated my argument in the essay. Although, in the future I think I can strength my essay by adding more analysis and evidence. By adding more evidence from the text in my essay, I would be more able to go deeper in analysis and better explain my argument. Along with using more examples from the text, using more outside evidence that exemplifies the say idea would strength my essay and make me a stronger writer. A writing goal I have besides having stronger analysis is to improve my vocabulary and word choice in the essay. Overall I was happy with my
I found this to be very helpful for me as a writer because I was able to stay more organized than usual. Some changes I made to my essay was to explain the uses of ethos, pathos and logos a little more. Rather than assuming that my audience knew what I was talking about. The feedback from my peers helped the most. It made me realize that parts of my essay were choppy and did not have a good flow.

I have never been much of a writer, and during the course of this semester, I 've struggled to meet length requirements on the assigned essays. However, I do understand that not everyone is an excellent writer or even has to enjoy writing to get a good grade in this 1A class. From the start, with the first essay, I pushed myself to do my best and looked to multiple outlets to polish my writing, such as the online tutor, the writing center, the internet and the writer 's handbook.
I took the time to write out an outline for this essay to help manage the chaos that is my writing, unlike my other essays for the course. As I said before, I have learned to question the structure of my paragraphs. For example: when I was revising the Composing Process essay, I noticed that a set of paragraphs could be rearranged and partially rewritten to improve the structure and make the essay flow better. However, I would argue that my Justification video assignment demonstrates my assertion better than my revised essays. From the beginning, I laid out a clear path that my Justification video needed to follow.
This time I have connected the paragraphs together. I had a better thesis statement. I had good topic sentences in each paragraph. The topic sentences were connected to the thesis. I had also used quotes better after using quotes I have cited them properly and explained the quote better.

Both of my parents are entrepreneurs, but they each took a different path to get where they are today.
When I recently wrote my analyzing essay for my book, I focused really hard on replacing vague words with ones that were more descriptive and would catch the reader’s attention. I also tried to develop a better products by being more specific on details and giving good explanations. My strengths as a writer have been grammar. I always use paperrater and I have my mother proofread all my papers. I hate reading papers that have grammar and spelling errors all over the place, so I do the best to try an make sure mine is not like that.
ENG-122 Reflective Essay My writing process has changed tremendously over the course of this class. I feel more accomplished, confident and I feel sometimes that my ideas and thoughts just come in to my mind out of nowhere and I start writing about anything now.

And to do that, one must be able to understand my past life before the incident, more specifically, during my time in Eliot Middle School. During my time in middle school, I was part of the Sheriff’s Youth Foundation, where I would constantly interact with different sheriff officers within Altadena. Of course, I now know that there is a difference between a sheriff and a police officer, but at the time, I simply thought they were one in the same. Not only that, but I would constantly watch and consume all sorts of media including the police.
There is a moment where you have to step out from your comfort zone. Throughout my high school, I have encountered a number of opportunities to be a leader. I have shown my leadership through participating in math team, becoming a class senate, and also being part of a family.

It is not necessary to describe faith as believing in a single entity with unlimited power. For me, faith is an idea that helps me to connect with the positivity around me. It is having the belief that even in difficult situations, somehow, someway, everything will be alright. Fear or Faith?
Pain is a feeling that is an inevitable life experience, no matter how young or old you may be it is something that you can never escape. Whether it be physical pain or mental pain it will follow you wherever you go. Many of the painful things that we have face we try to suppress, we think of it as something “unlucky” that happened to us, or blame ourselves or other people and try to move on with our lives.
