My late grandma, Jan got me into writing when I was only ten years old. My writing methods in addition to my sentence structures have evolved throughout the years; however, I never really paid attention to my strengths and weakness as a writer until I first entered 16SP Composition I (ENGL-112-A). My first assigned essay was a reflection piece. Unfortunately, I lost my papa due to alcoholism; hence, why I wrote about how his death in impacted in my first project.

Sentence combinations is my second strength I use when I write. While reading my first writing assignment, in paragraph two I have the sentence: When someone chooses
As a recent high school graduate I may seem to have many more weaknesses than strengths.

My relationship with writing could have culminated into three words; fear, quality, and of course no relationship is complete without excitement. Like any new relationship, emotions can determine the success or demise of the relationship.

I tend to go into detail explaining a topic or subject. But my strength could also be seen as my weakness because most of the time I end up repeating myself over and over. For example, last year I took English 355 and we had to write an essay in which we talked about a lesson plan for our students regarding how we would teach them poetry, well in this two page essay, according to my professor I ended up repeating myself.

During the semester, I learned to focus on my strengths and work on my weaknesses. I could use my organization, paragraph structure, and transition skills to keep high quality writing. This will be helpful to assure an above average grade when I take English 102 during the summer. On the other hand, although students often try to avoid their weaknesses, I see them as useful.
