Writings Goals for Next Year


            Next year my writing goals are to write faster, make better transitions, improve my thesis writing, and use commas correctly. I also want my writing to stay honest and a reflection of me. It is important to me that my writing is interesting. And it is important to me that I make good grades in school and that includes English of course. My last goal and an important one to me, I want to be more relaxed when I write. I do not want to be so stressed when I write. My teacher this year has already helped me be less nervous about writing. She lets me speak with her about what is going on in our lives. She gives us extensions is we ask correctly, and she gives us good feedback. 
            One of the ways I will achieve my goals for next year is to try this summer to improve my typing speed. I think this will help me in every class and especially when it comes to writing papers. Next year I plan to use the Writing Center even when it isn’t required. I think it is a useful resource our school provides for us. Grammarly helps with comma issues, and it teaches me at the same time. I will continue to use it. Next year I will have to remind myself to stay honest in my writing, and I will have to ask for help when it comes to writing and supporting a strong thesis. I think all of those things will help me to keep improving as a writer.

Writing Center Experience

            My experiences with the Writing Center were good ones. Each time I went to the Center I learned something new. Now that I reflect on it I realize what I learned is not what I expected and what I learned does have value to me.             My first appointments with the Writing Center were because I was required to make appointments for my research paper. I made appointments online, and there were problems with that. Even though I made the appointment correctly, it had to be changed. I also waited too long to make the appointments so when the first appointment had to be rescheduled it was hard to rearrange. When I made appointments for my revision assignment, I went to the Writing Center and made several appointments. That process worked better for me, and I will do that in the future. That is one of the things I learned.       ...

My Strengths as a Writer

            The first strength I have as a writer is that I am an honest writer. I write the way I think and feel so my writing is true to who I am. Another strength I have as a writer is that I have creative thoughts in writing. I come up with ideas that are a little different and that people seem to like. When I review my writing, I am a usually good at finding my errors. I am not great with commas, but I am good at catching misspelled or left out words.              I think the best way I learned about my strengths is through the blogs I was required to write. This year I had to write approximately two blogs a week unless there was an exception. I also had to read and comment on other student’s blogs each week.   So, I have written and read a lot of blogs. That is how I realized that I usually catch my mistakes and have some decent ideas. That is also how I know I am a...
