Writing Process After English 115 I Thought, Oh Great,...

When I found out I was taking English 115 I thought, â€Å"Oh great, another English class and I am terrible at writing essays.† My expectations for this class were low because I thought it would be a continuation of a mix of AP Language and Literature and I drained of those two classes. As the first week passed and I gave myself time to read the syllabus, I found the structure of the class to seem quite intriguing. It is split up into three sections; project web, project space and project text. Although there were essays for each section, I wasn’t as intimidated because there were projects and online Moodle assignments that went along with them. I was able to use my creativity for the projects which helped me better understand the subject, so I found the essay writing process less stressful. After finishing English 115 I can successfully say that I have become a better writer, I have fluently kept a style that works for me and I feel more confident in writing and read ing lengthy works. I have finally grasped skills that I couldn’t quite understand in high school, like transitions and thesis statements. I am not as intimidated to read an eight-page text and I no longer skip to the end to see how many pages there are in a text. My perspective on critical reading and writing has positively changed because I understand why I should read and write, not because I have to. The one thing that changed my mind about writing is that I wasn’t timed and I didn’t have to do it in class.
