Describe Your Class Analysis

Like most people, I have been writing since my early childhood. My earliest memory of writing goes as far back as kindergarten, where my teacher gave me the task of creating a short sentence describing a picture. When I was growing up, I hardly used writing outside of school. Writing a letter to Santa Claus every Christmas is the extent of my writing for fun as a child. Although, given the number of essays I have had to write throughout my school years along with the fact that my mother is a bibliophile and has always encouraged me to read and write as much as I can, I have undoubtedly developed a close relationship with writing. Despite being forced to write nearly my entire life, I do not dislike writing; rather, I do not especially care

For learning lab I have an A+. This is one of my best classes because I do all the work needed to be done in this class. In order to keep doing well I'll keep doing my work in class. Sometimes I get distracted in this class because of certain people who are really annoying to me and I get upset and I can't focus on my work. However, I also distract myself because I talk to friends in class.

ENGL 101 class is on my study schedule for this semester. This class runs over writing academic researches for college. As a student for this class, I can give my reflection about this course. This reflection might be a useful for the future. Because when the educators know about some of students’ challenges during this course, they could overcome those problem next time. Also, they would give more attention for student’s needs. Through this reflection, I would write some benefits points form studying this course, descript the challenges that I have faced in this course.

With all the little time I have been on this earth I have come to notice that there are two kinds of people, those who love writing and those who hate it violently. I have seen people who love writing so much they always have a notebook on them that they write in at all times. I have also seen some people that hate writing so much that they would not even do work assignments that required well planned and thought out writing. I myself have never fit into either category, I do not love or hate writing. What I do love about it is coming up with stories and sharing my point of view with the readers. What I do not love about it is worrying about spelling and grammar.

At the beginning of this class, I was eager yet scared to be taking a college class my freshman year. Although I was not the only freshman who was taking a college class but I was one of the freshmen who has never taken an honor class in my life. Last year I was sick of teachers thinking I was not capable of a challenging class or that I didn't meet the "test standards,"I was done with it. My mother mentioned to me taking Sinclair classes, which I did and I blew it out of the water. As a student, I signed up for that college class and made a goal of working hard to prove to my reading teachers that they were wrong, that I am capable of a challenge.

For as long as I can remember I have had a strong dislike for writing. It is not something I enjoy doing because I feel as if school sucks the fun out of it. Writing, in my opinion, is something that should be stress free. Writing becomes more stressful because of deadlines and guidelines that your grade or job may depends on. Over the years I have learned about my good and bad writing practices, tips to be a better writer, misconceptions of rules of writing and how they are all tied into effective time and time wasted.

Writing in general has never been a passion or talent of mine. I have always worked very hard when given an assignment to do, but I have never enjoyed it. I am not someone who enjoys writing or does it when I am not required to. When I do write, I tend to find it very challenging, especially if it is a topic that I do not have interest in. Having interest in a topic really is the key to writing a good paper if you ask me, if I don’t have interest in a topic it shows through my writing, and my paper will not be as good as it could be. After taking Writing 102, this has been the biggest realization of mine, that I write much better when I have interest in my topic.

Most of the year i have been failing all my classes not doing any work.

Sometimes in the hall I am walking really fast to get to my next class but then I get stuck behind one of those people. The people who walk so slow in the hall that they just aren’t moving. I know that people should not be running but you shouldn’t just be standing there. They are just sitting there and smelling the roses. But, there are no roses so keep walking NOT SLOWLY but faster. Sometimes there could be a group of people that are walking slow. They are all together and I have to maneuver my way around them. I know sometimes that your classes are right next to each other but pick up the pace! Other people have to get to class. Sometimes I pack up late in class so I have to hurry up to get to my next class. But, when it is lunch time people don’t walk slow at all they run, so now there are teachers watching us to see if we are running. Why can’t people walk like that all the time? Also, why aren’t there teachers watching us to see if we are walking too slow?

In the class we would review all manipulation and persuasion techniques. The students would go into groups each assigned a specific technique. They would create a skit for the class that properly portrayed how to use each technique with a project alongside it. These students then would be assigned to find these techniques in pop culture, books, movies, or shows they have seen as well. Some days, the class would be set up into a debate where the student use the techniques they learn to win arguments. At the end of the class, each student would write an essay on an examples of how they can use these techniques in their present and future lives.

Writing is great thing, you can bring your voice to life on paper. There are many different types of writing to get people with all personalities a way to interpret their own words. Descriptive essays are my personal favourite. They let you express and help interpret your imagination. They are very unique because you can get into such detail about them. If you can't find a topic to write about just look around to find an idea. Your best friend, a dream, a pet, a celebrity, a musical instrument, there all ideas and topics to write about in your essay. If you know your topic good enough you will be able to get a very well written and detailed essay. My least favorite writing style would be persuasive. The reason this writing style would be

Last semester I was in a class called Communication on the Internet and we had an in class essay for our midterm. When I received my midterm back I was surprised by the low grade I got and was eager to understand what I did wrong. The professor went over each question in class and explained what he thought was the best answer was for each one. This still confused most of us because a majority of the students felt that we answered each question is a satisfactory way that lined up with the professors expectations and the answer he was providing in class. But whenever we asked the professor to elaborate more he would generally just say that it was in the book, which made it hard to get a detailed explanation of what exactly we did to deserve such a bad grade. I really didn’t think I deserved the grade I received because it

Writing papers have not always been my favorite thing to do. The main reason why I detested writing papers, was because I considered my English horrible. English is not my native language and learning it was difficult in my opinion. Especially, when as a child the only place where you could speak English was at school. Other than that, the only language I was allowed to speak at home was Spanish. Throughout the years I eventually got the hang of it, and at the beginning of fourth grade, I was placed in a regular English class instead of being in an English Language Learning (ELL) class. But even after that, I still detested writing. After the struggle of learning a new language, I was proud of myself for taking challenging classes that

I have always hated writing. I never knew where to start and always ended up off topic. Even in middle school writing was never fun for. I never had an interest in writing about something I didn’t like, know, or had any kind of interest in. Every year I would have different writing assignments that I thought was difficult to do. I would turn my papers in only to get a low grade in return. When I first started writing I could only write about topics I could relate to. This limited my writing skills because I had many classes that uninterested me, like religion or any type of writing classes. I would turn in my paper and get back a grade that was lower than was hoping for. Then I would read through my paper and notice many mistakes that I overlooked. It was very disorganized and even sometimes off topic. My papers always sounded way better before I turned them in. I figured that I was good at writing about personal topics because I had a good understanding of those. My first improvement to my writing skills was doing research. I always research the topic to make sure I have some type of understanding that way the writing comes easy and my paper makes sense. Another issue was disorganization. My information in my paper would be all over the place. I had to develop the habit of using an outline. I would go online and download a blank outline and fill in my paper. Class after class I would receive essay assignments. I eventually had to come to the sad reality that I would have to

Every one has their subjects that they love and hate, and for it was defiantly writing. Writing is something I dreaded for a long time; I developed my hatred towards writing since probably elementary school. I hate writing when I’m expected to put a spin on a subject that just doesn’t work for me, personally. There are many times when I have papers due and sometimes I feel like I have nothing to say towards the topic. I could write a paragraph but to continuously write paragraphs after paragraphs it gets a little harder. I always contradict myself in my writings but that is something I have grown out of. Writing is time consuming and requires a lot of effort. They require a lot of planning and usually some accompanying reading and note taking. Taking notes is one of my weaknesses. In some intuitions like my high school for instances there was not enough time is given to the rough draft and not enough feedback is given before the essay receives a final grade. I personally believe that not everyone is a "natural-born" writer; but I do believe that everyone has the capability to become a decent writer.
