Reflection
I sit here contemplating on exactly what to say because I have learned so much and enjoyed so much in this class. The discussions really helped me understand the work I was given, this class became an enjoyment and a pleasure to be in. This paper I am writing will be reflecting on the good times and the lessons I have learned in this English class.
When I first realized I had this class I was expecting to pass but not do as well as I have been doing. Being in this class has pushed me academically but has also been a class that I felt confident in. The assignments helped me analyze and create blogs on the internet. I feel like I have excelled so much in this class and I have become a better writer thanks to this class.
I have been given the chance to excel my learning and learn things I’ve never knew before. This being said I believe this will take me very far in not just future classes but in the long run as well. The skills I have learned in this class will help me in other classes to become an even better writer as well as a better reader. And with this I can increase my speaking abilities as well as my vocabulary.
When I look back to the very first essay I’ve ever written in this class to the very last essay I’ve written in this class I feel delighted. I believe I have improved very much since the first time I stepped foot into this class room. The very first essay I had written for this class wasn’t to my expectations due to the grade I had received. From then on I had the mind set to thrive for something more and better my writing skills. Fortunately this class has really helped me achieve that. I find myself getting excited to do the next assignment, I feel that its because I feel confident more now then before I was placed in this course.
Being that I have more confidence in my writing I have given myself the mindset to where I can be able to write about anything. This has also helped me a lot with my writing as well. Usually when you are confident about something your results seem to always turn out for the good. I believe you should always be confident in whatever it is you do because it shows in you work believe it or not.
The thing I like most about this class is that we always were given the information we needed to know before writing any of the essays that were assigned. For example; when I was given the argumentative essay, I wasn’t all the way sure of what was expected for this particular paper but after I was given the information I needed to know I was able to have a understanding of clear thoughts to what had to be done.
I also enjoyed posting blogs to my fellow classmates and responding to what others post as well. This gave me time to think about certain things in ways I didn’t think I would ever think about in the way that I did. I also got a chance to see what others thought about the same situation and comment on their thoughts about the situation. We even had the chance to interact with our professor by commenting to what was said as well.
I really enjoyed the classroom atmosphere, I like the fact that we had access to the internet during class time. We had our own individual computers and this gave me a chance to look up information during class time as well as post to my blog. This was a very good thing for me and It helped me a lot. It save time and I got a chance to post during class instead of worrying about doing it for homework. This way we should have no excuse to why we didn’t post because you could just do it during class time.
Last but not least we were also given the opportunity to choose weather we wanted to come to class on Thursdays and I really enjoyed that. This was set up to where we got a chance to come to class on this day for extra help or if you needed a better understanding about something you could get it. This also gave me time on finishing up assignments for this class as well as for other classes.
I don’t recall having anything I didn’t really enjoy from this class. I like this class exactly the way it is and I don’t think it should change at all. I think the class set up should stay the way it is. I believe this will help future students to become a better writer and it will better their learning skills as well. The reason I say this is simply because its helped me so much so I believe it will do the same for others as well.
I put forth time and effort in this class especially toward my assignments, I believe I received the grade I’ve earned which is a “B”, I feel I organized my time very well and did all that was required to reach the goal I was trying to reach. That being said I hope to go on and further my knowledge in this specified area of study.
