The Importance Of My Writing

Throughout the school year of 2015-2016 at the Founders Academy, I have wrote numerous essays, with generally positive results. Several of the essays exceeded expectations, while others reached expectations to a modest extent, but all of the essays were supported by the writing skills that I had learned that year, regardless of my strengths or weaknesses with these skills. These techniques vary extensively, from comparing and contrasting ideas in a text to editing and revising essays for quality results, which is proven in my writing portfolio.

Writing and reading for me started really young with me. I was learning to read and write before I was 2. My mom was teaching me and I had a Phonex person come to my house and would help. I was a year younger than almost everybody else in my kindergarten class. I was able to go into school younger because I scored high enough on a test I had to take. I was always reading books when I could when I was young which is why I was able to read bigger words than most kids my age could. I was able to read at a 4th grade level when I was in 1st grade. This all fell in place because my dad was always telling me to read and write when I had free time if I wanted to be better than everybody. When I was younger I always trying to be better

Essay have never been my strong suite. This semester however, my writing ability has improved. My progress is evident when I look over my assignment five essay and see the mistakes highlighted. These mistakes are what I now look for while editing my work. I am still improving with every piece of writing I create, but I revise differently by looking specifically for my weaknesses. I have been successful in my attempts because I do not make the same mistakes as I used to. I now use more resources than I previously did to embellish my writing process. The combination of these changes has greatly improved my final pieces of writing.

When I was younger, I’ve always had a creative mind when it came to free writing, but reading had influenced my writing. When reading fictional stories this had developed my imagination immensely because of how creative authors can be with their stories and I’ve always thought outside the box. The role of reading and writing has become a huge impact in my life. The importance in my education is to have knowledge in what you write and read as you get older these two areas tend to have more complex skills divided up into different sections.

For the entirety of my life, I have been predisposed to writing papers and reading novels all in the name of a letter grade, its name being A. In fact, I have soley read and wrote in life only because it is a requirement in my education. Reading and writing is essential in everyone’s life and I am extremely blessed to have had and still have helpful, intelligent, and passionate teachers to help me through one of my weaknesses in my education and life in general.

Computers have done a lot of things to make my life easier but I would not like one grading my paper. There are so many important elements to writing that involve emotion that I wouldn’t trust a computer to understand. Good writing should make you feel something. Artificial intelligence has come a long way but it is exactly that, artificial. I want a human to grade my papers. Another important element of writing is your audience and if you know your teacher likes writing a certain way then you should cater to that when you are writing.

My writing has greatly changed since the first day of this class, in a positive way. Before I took this course, I would write essays full of punctuation errors and improper sentence structure. One of my greatest weaknesses was writing conclusions, and through this English class and its assignments, I have improved my grammar and overall writing. Moreover, I have learned how important it is to write drafts and proofread them before settling on the final paper. I am not the same writer I was when I began this class, since my strengths have expanded to include a higher vocabulary and a more focused writing style. However, I can still do more to improve my skills – focusing on wrapping up my essays better – and become an even better writer.

I am a 10 grader and as days go by school keeps getting harder than my ninth grade year but for me it's interesting to enroll many new challenging things like in english we can peruse many types of writing. I had to really challenge myself on reading it was gonna be difficult but i had to overcome it why? well because reading is not my passion or hobby i don't enjoy reading unless its a 100% attractive book. For example the book i read 5 times and only was “The Fault In Our Stars” it was a good amusing book. Other challenges i had was Reading the goldfish story i didn't really understand i had to go back to it that book really confused me.

Writing is something everyone has to do. It is needed in every field, no matter what job you end up with. It can be simple emails to complex lab research papers. Therefore, learning to write correctly is important. It is important to know based on the audience that it will change the way you write and what type of writing you will need to do. In English composition, this semester we worked on this quite a bit. Although, there are some areas in which I improved; there are still other areas in which I need to continue to improve in and have trouble writing as well. Therefore, I will cover some aspects of writing and what I need to improve in my own writing.

I have never viewed myself as a confident writer. When I write papers for school, I usually spend more time stressing about the paper as a whole rather than performing the actual writing. If my teacher were to ask me why I write, my reply would most likely be, “Ugh, because I have to.” But lately, I have noticed that I have spent a lot of time writing, the past few years, without the pressure of being graded. I learned that writing helps me somewhat organize my thoughts that seem to be chaotic and all over the place. I write from the deepest part of me, because I feel I have to.

Also, the use of literary devices such as sarcasm and symbolism were used very subtly which made the book difficult to analyze. At times I felt so discouraged in the class. Up until this class, I had little to no difficulty reading. Why was I having such a difficult time now? I just wanted to give up on the class entirely, but I keep pushing through. I started reading more pages of the book that were assigned and took notes of words that I didn’t understand. As time went on, the book started to become easier to read. I even started recognizing literary devices more often. I was proud of the progress I had made. However, another challenge came up, the 4-paragraph essay. What made this essay especially difficult, was that you only had 45 minutes to write. Also, you didn’t know the topic of the essay until you came into class, so you couldn’t prepare beforehand. Within that time frame, I didn’t know how structure my essay. I knew what I wanted to say, but didn’t know how to express it in my writing that was easy to understand. Because of this difficulty, my first essay was not good. However, I did not let this discourage

In my past academic career, I have found that writing essays and papers are one of my strong points. I like writing because it allows me to write down things, and put things together that might be harder to speak then write. The most difficult thing for me about writing is having to write a paper that does not have a page limit, a topic, or relatable subject.

Our handwriting is essential to our individuality. It shows how we want the world to perceive us to be. The quality of my handwriting varies because it’s rarely written in the same style. My handwriting consists of cursive and print because I feel as though certain words I have trouble writing correctly. For instance, my E’s, A's, F’s, and S’s are writing in cursive. The different forms of lines I use consists of straight and curvy. I would consider my handwriting to be free-flowing because when I incorporate cursive letters with print, the curvy lines within the cursive letters touch, therefore, the letters are close together. Also, depending on which utensils I’m using the width and size of the content changes. With pencils, my handwriting

Writing is fundamental. It is a great aspect of life. Though not everyone is fond of writing and if they are that’s good for them. If you were to ask me to write a paper I guarantee you it won’t get done and if it does it’s not good. As you can tell I don’t have a passion for writing and unfortunately for me, it’s required to write a long essay for school English courses. Now you can imagine how difficult that must be for me if you’re in the same boat as I am. Atop taking an eight-week writing course bloody hell did I have some long rough sleepless nights and oh yes, I did want to cry and say freak this as well as give up. However, throughout this eight-week course I learn so much about my writing and have gained a better comprehension of

Writing has become a part of everyday life for many. Not only do some find pleasure in writing, but many find pleasure in reading narratives as well. However, to read a great narrative, one must write a great narrative first. Today, people believe that writing stories is an easy task, yet many do not even know what a good narrative is composed of. A narrative is a story that has action and details to build the storyline, conflict and resolution, and includes dialogue between characters. As children and adults learn to write and develop their skills, the importance of knowing how to write a narrative is crucial. A narrative is defined as a written account of connected events, like a story. Writing a good narrative must poses distinguishing characteristics to grasp the attention of the audience.
