    Coming out of English 2010 with Megan Peiser, many concepts were introduced to me. I’ve further expanded my knowledge on Missouri women, women’s roles in general, Digital Literacy and how to navigate around Wikipedia with confidence. Along with the basic Wikipedia concepts and even further exploring digital literacy, because of this class, I am more concerned about a women’s role in society. Although I was already interested in and supportive of the women’s rights movement. I also learned so much about

    Coming into English 102 I assumed it would be extremely easy and it would be similar to high school English. This was correct, it consistent mainly of writing papers and a few assignments where we had to read something then write about it. As a result of this I believe I did not take the course as serious as I needed to. However along the way I learned multiple useful concepts that will be beneficial to my continuance of college. College and high school are not as different as people make them seem

    I was born in Vietnam. I left Vietnam to come to United State with my family when I was about 12 years old. I was really young at the time. It was a long time ago because I am 20 years old now. At that time, life for me was simple. I didn’t have to worry about anything. I stop going to school in Vietnam at grade five and stay at home for two years. It was really fun while I was at home. When I was at home, my parent wants me to learn English. So I learned English in Vietnam. When I got to United

    “ There are your radish seeds everyone.” Said Mr. Susick. The whole class looked around at each other with a blank confused face. It was the first day of junior year in my English class. Mr. Susick started talking about how our first assignment would be to grow radishes. We were all thinking, how in the world does gardening relate to English class. I had heard about this project from previous juniors but none of them said what the real reason was. All Mr. Susick said was that you need to let the

    subjects I have taken on this spring semester. Being able to identify the different types of essays as well as putting my skills together to write them is the most difficult to me. Although I have learned from the negative and positive feedback, I still feel there is a huge area that needs improvement. Starting this out I didn’t quite know what to expect or what level my writing skills were at. I will most definitely be able to use what I’ve learned for my future education as well as my future career

    English has always been one of my favorite subjects but I have not been the best at its many evolving aspects. Reading the one I struggled with the most and still do but in a different way than I did in the beginning. Struggles do not define what you can and cannot do they can only help you do better and turn into something you can learn to love doing. I went to Catholic school kindergarten through eighth grade looking back now they focused a lot on our reading skills. I remember I was one of

    English 20M-Section 2 12 May 2011 My Progress as a Reader and Writer in English 20M If I had a time travel machine, I would love to go back to our class’s first meeting. It was such a memorable day. I was so nervous that my first piece of writing seemed less than mediocre as I reflected on what I had written that day. While being happy that my name was randomly chosen to be added to the class, I was very scared of this class. The last time I wrote an essay was two years ago, and before this class

    My theme for Defense of Mastery is “Life during WWII”. I have chosen to do this theme because it incorporates all of my core classes. I was going to create 2 models of Hiroshima before and after the bomb was dropped by the U.S. But instead I decided to create a small documentary about a woman who lived during WWII and experienced similar treatment than that of a Jew while in Germany under Nazi control. I will be interviewing her personally and asking her questions that relate to her life during the

    School English Class Are you reading this on a Thursday? If you are or even if you’re not, I’m still going to do a throwback to my high school days in English class. The main paper I remember about high school, and many other students do, is the senior paper. The same paper that needed to be done in order to graduate. My senior paper was an example of an argumentative essay. It had to be a certain amount of pages long, so the normal 5 paragraph essays we were used to did not help. What did help

    Fresno offered, I decided to enroll myself in English 10. My decision was based on my high school experience. I always challenged myself to take rigorous and challenging courses. In high school, whether it was a gate, honors, or AP courses, I always took up the challenge and gave it all my best. I had excelled in my English course in high school, however, I do understand that high school writing will massively differ from college writing. In addition, my decision was also based upon my recent participation
