The Importance Of Writing In English Class

To be completely honest, I don’t remember starting writing since a young age like many others did. My writing skills started developing until I came to the United States, which is when I started High School. Reading and writing was a thing in Mexico, although it didn’t help me that much.The reason why is because I was a cheater. Yes,indeed, a cheater. All my essays and projects were plagiarized. It’s not a honor staying late trying to find the perfect fake assignment instead of using your own brain and words. It’s very embarrassing to say that reading an entire book has always been difficult to me. I have read some books,of course; yet, as time goes by I only

I love writing as much as I can. It allows me the freedom to be someone else. It gives my imagination the freedom to be wide open. When I write, I want other people who read it to understand what I am writing. I want my story to get the audiences’ senses working. I be sure to write my own ideas and thoughts, so as to not plagiarize anyone’s work. Writing is and should be a free-thinking love. Most writings are going to have a beginning, middle, and end. I like to have all three portions of a story because it gives you details you need, to stay interested. You should be sure that people can understand what you write. Loving what you write can have an amazing effect on what people read. I don’t think there is enough reading and writing going

Before starting school, I incapable to write or speak English at all. Because English is my second language I had a hard time understanding how to read and write in English. My parents and older siblings would often teach me the basics of having to know my numbers, ABCs, and by making me memorizing saying simple sentences and questions. English is everyone in my family's second language and because we did not grow up learning how to speak, read, and write in English which made it difficult for me when school started.

Writing has been a part of my life since I was a young lad. I loved making up stories, writing them down, and then telling these stories to my family. My dreams were to become a writer one day, but those dreams were destroyed by my step-father. He would tell me that I would never succeed in writing and never make a career out of it. I moved on from writing at a young age and did not enjoy it growing up after that moment. Once I got into high school I did not learn much techniques on writing due to my 9nth and 10nth grade teachers never putting effort into teaching the students. They would put a movie on every day and just be on their phones for the most part. This way of teaching changed when I entered 11nth grade. My English teacher, Mr. Ho, was different than my previous teachers.

I feel that keeping the order of how writing should be done is important and helpful. I think that the best way to get students to understand how things really work with the writing process is to complete a paper with them, using all the steps of the writing process. Show them how it goes and how frustrating it can be for you as a teacher. Once they see that you had a hard time, but in the end had a good result then they will know that no matter what they can do it do. Having them to help you along the way will help too. I never learn by just watching so i am sure plenty of students need to get involved in the lesson. I will teach the students the three ways to do prewriting and allow them to choose what they prefer to use. Rough drafting might

For as long as I can remember, I hated writing with great passion. I would do my best to opt out of my writing assignments when possible and when it was not possible I would hand in such subpar paper some of my teachers believed me to be below my appropriate class level. However, at some point, before this time, I enjoyed writing with my favorite form of writing being poetry. My attitude toward writing took a major shift when my third-grade teacher would denigrate my papers due to my creativity in writing. I would not follow her instruction prompting me to receive below average grades in most of my writing assignments. At the time I did not have a clear understanding of the error I was committing and when my mother would try to help she would push too hard on making my writing to her standards. This only furthered my growing dislike for writing.

When in high school you probably wrote papers, and you probably thought "hey I am pretty good at this.", but I can bet you had a teacher in high school who would warn you that your work will never be good enough for college. Especially if you keep writing the way you do. You probably got warnings from every teacher that college is going to be hard, and that you will spend countless nights working on projects due the next day. But I want you to know none of it is true. If you work hard on your homework everyday you will do just fine.

The papers this time is a lot harsher to write. We were required to write five essays within the semester and one final paper before it ends. I was eager, curious and anxious at the same time when grades were posted, but those feelings I had would be swiftly altered by dissatisfaction. I got worsening scores on all five papers, but I thought this shouldn’t shake up my confidence. Before writing the last paper of the semester, I went through all those five papers and analyzed where I went wrong. Saving the modifications and comments in mind, I wrote the last paper and was very pleased when I received a passing

I was never was a strong reader or writer when I was younger. I never excelled in these subjects because I am such a literal thinker. I always enjoyed having straight forward questions and straight forward answers as they do in math and sometimes science. So thinking out the box was out of the question. I did do good in my English classes in school mostly because I enjoyed seeing at an "A" on my report card. Though I never really enjoyed writing, it never was much of a burden to me because I knew I had to do it. I only write when I have to. So whenever I do start writing I try to make it as good of a paper as possible. I am no writer so good can only go so far. I never was into having to worry about spelling and punctuation (mainly because

Writing was a difficult part of literacy for me growing up. I never really liked writing nor did I think I was any good at it. First, I had a hard time thinking of what to write let alone how to get those thoughts on the paper. Even when the teacher provided us with prompts I had a hard time thinking of how to tackle the thoughts I had or simply I didn’t have any thoughts on the topic. I floundered in writing for many years. I took a creative writing class in high school and enjoyed it. However, outside of that class I lacked the professional writing skills that my teachers wanted to see, such as indentations, punctuation and spelling. I had no organizational skills and my papers were choppy at best. At some point, someone, can’t recall who, told me to write

I have viewed writing as a necessary evil for the majority of my adolescence. I proved to be talented in various sciences and mathematics at a young age and tended to shy away from subjects like writing. I entered my freshman English class thinking writing would be an easy feat, a mere obstacle that I could hurdle over easily. I believed that as soon as my pen hit the paper, words would immediately come to me in an eloquent fashion. In elementary school, I would rarely

Writing has always been something I dread. It’s weird because I love talking and telling stories, but the moment I have to write it all down on paper, I become frantic. It’s almost as if a horse race just begun in my mind, with hundreds of horses, or words, running through my mind, unable to place them in chronological order. Because I struggle to form satisfying sentence structure, it takes me hours, sometimes even days, to write one paper. It’s not that I think I’m a “bad writer,” I just get discouraged easily. Needless to say, I don’t think highly of my writing skills. When I was little I loved to both read and write. I read just about any book I could get my hands on, and my journal was my go to for my daily adventures. Although it’s

In teaching and learning English, there are two aspects that should be concerned. The first one is the language skills such as speaking, listening, reading, and writing. The second one is the language components such as vocabulary, and grammar. These two aspects are taught in order to make the students achieve the ability in communicating both in spoken and written forms.

The English language has turned into the world's most widely used language. It is the principal language for global communications in various fields including trade, industry, legislative issues, and training. This is the main motivation behind why a large number of learners throughout the world are endeavoring to enhance their English language capability. A basic segment of this capability is enhancing one's ability for writing since this ability is absolutely essential for employment in recent years. One vital factor to consider with writing competency is spelling as one single incorrectly spelled-word can change a word or the purpose of the entire sentence.

It is very crucial in any writing EFL program, to adopt the systematic philosophy in teaching L2 writing. As a former EFL writing teacher, I have experienced many ways in teaching writing; though, I found the best way to approach is to adapt the process-oriented instruction that hypothesized writing as global skills by following particular stages that well-structured writing (Ferris, D., & Hedgcock, J., 2014, p 63). Writing is a difficult skill that requires approaching steps to accomplish writing goals as a one completed piece. Hence, I do believe that writing in English for ESL students, should be systematically formed into stages such as: prewriting, planning, drafting, and editing to meet the learners’ scaffolding that will minimize the difficulties that they may encounter when writing (Ferris, D., & Hedgcock, J., 2014, p 65).
