Writing A Writing An Essay

Outline, planning, revising, rough and final draft, grading. This is the typical process for writing an essay, I however as a young high school student never followed this. I started with an idea in my head and go on from there. I never considered a need to plan and prepare an outline, just to write a rough draft that I would have to revise, draft, and draft again. It would just be easier to start writing the final draft first right? No. This class has taught me many strategies on how to accustom my writing to a college level. Over the semester in this class I have grown, learned how to effectively draft, and experienced argumentative writing first hand.

The first essay that I revised was Essay 2, Analyzing an Unsustainable Practice which dealt with cell phone addiction. The main reason why I chose to revise this essay is because I feel like it is a topic that could be expanded on and many people could relate to it. Moreover, when I received the feedback on this essay, I noticed a few major and minor adjustments I could make to build on my essay. So, the major improvements I made in this essay were rearranging my paragraphs to make the essay flow smoothly, adding another paragraph explaining the development of poor communication skills, and providing examples to expand on my points that were unclear. I also made minor improvements to this essay which was making a small tweak to my thesis to make the audience understand the point I am trying to make and fixing my incorrect grammar.

There was many steps that helped me improve in this class including drafts and peer-evaluation worksheets. Having a rough draft is one of the best ways to help me improve on my essays because it gives me a professional eye to see the problems that I’m not able to. Discussing the prompts of our essays had benefited me because it gave me a sense of direction of where I should start and another perspective. Peer-evaluation worksheets are also one of the great tools used to improve my writing because it gave me a different approach on my essay that is by peers. They wrote some particularly useful revisions I should make to increase the value of my writing. By having a rubric to follow as guidelines had immensely improved

The main changes I made in my second essay were I wanted to talk about what happens after you finish writing it. The focus was more on the outcome of writing a paper and the steps to change the problem. One of

Typically speaking, the scholarship essays which students turn in are, well, to put it mildly, not that good. I'm going to generalize, but you should know this. They're typically boring, underdeveloped without sufficient details, and very unpersuasive. Remember, the scholarship essay is a piece of persuasion. The people reviewing your essay will be going through a bunch of applications, and you need to distinguish yourself. You need to make the reader care. You might be saying to yourself, “I’m not the best writer” and “There are certainly better writers out there.” You might be right but that doesn’t mean that you can’t win the scholarship and it doesn’t mean you can’t write a more persuasive

“Did I catch you at a bad time or something?” Lia asked in a trembling voice. “You sound a little out of breath.”

“I- wha- how-” She sputtered. “You suck.” She finally said, after a long moment of silence.

ay. So that's where we keep the extra napkins and the sauces. - Sounds simple enough. Anything else?

     Finally, you should edit your essay for its contents and style. Editing is one of the important stages of the writing process. It is as important as prewriting, outlining, and drafting. Revising includes checking the structure, the grammatical accuracy, and the contents of the paper. Editing involves rewriting the paper to make it clearer and stronger. By editing, you can make sure whether your paper is unified, supported, and well organized. Also, revising which is included in editing, helps you to correct errors in grammatical mistakes, punctuation, and spelling. Of course, it is very helpful to use a dictionary to do the revising and editing. After the editing, you can finally type your essay to make it complete.

When it comes to writing an essay, many students start writing their papers with the technique they prefer to write their essays with. While others sit there for an hour trying to get their ideas written down on a paper. Writing a good essay is a step by step method but it is a skill that is learned through hard work and practice not through memorizing. A successful writer writes and rethinks the ideas before submitting a paper. The writing process is a very important technique to have to start a paper. It includes planning, organizing, pre-writing, drafting, revision, and editing. This writing technique is similar to following a recipe to make a delicious dish. The chef would have to think about the ingredients that are required to build up this recipe, step by step to achieve the actual taste, similar to the steps of the writing.

There will never be a time in your life, where it is not the right time to do something great. What is it you looked at, and decided that you could not do and ended up talking yourself out of? When things do not work out for you, is there anything you can think of, that can make you strong? When you allow your pain to push you to greatness and to believe in your principles. That is one of the themes that Janis Ian operates with from her book “Society´s Child – My autobiography

Throughout this semester of English 49 the students were instructed to write an array of essays: Whole Process Essay (WPE), Revised Argumentative Essay (RAE), Unrevised Timed Essay (UTE). The essays each required a different writing technique. The WPE focused on personal experience and basic writing composition. The RAE was an argumentative essay about whether or not Schools should be reformed and how. The UTE focused on the student's ability to write under time constraints while still writing at a college level. While writing these essays I was able to reflect on my own writing to identify my weaknesses and strengths, find improvement throughout the course, and determine areas I needed to focus on.

In my first part of the common assignment, I wrote about how I wanted to work on writing drafts because that was one of my biggest weaknesses as a writer when I entered this class. When I would write essays, I would write the entire essay at once, do a little revision, and turn in the paper. With this essay, we had to write two drafts. The first draft was very helpful because we had an outline of questions and points we should have in the final essay. This draft helped me create a detailed outline that I used to write out my next draft. On my first draft, I wrote out what points I wanted to include in my final essay. In my outline of my

El arte podría ser una clase de sacerdocio. A través del rapto estético, comparable a la experiencia mística, se unifica el anhelo ancestral de los hombres, que es el de liberarse de los yugos, de las obligaciones morales y sociales que ellos mismos han creado ante la desesperación por encontrarle un orden a su inexplicable existencia, y quedarse en ese estado de no mente, el nirvana, donde se oficia el matrimonio entre el sentido de la vida y la belleza. En ese lugar quisiéramos habitar todos, y, de hecho, lo logramos cuando se nos olvida ese yo que veneramos más que a cualquier dios.
