College Writing: Improving and Perfecting Writing Skills

At first signing up for college writing did not exactly seem like the most exciting and interesting class to take. Although I knew it was a good choice for me to take in order to better my writing skills. Through the several weeks I have taken this class I have discovered that not only was it an excellent choice to take this class but it is extremely helpful and can still be fun as well.

The techniques and lesson plans used to teach this class are very unique but necessary. I would imagine it is hard to teach a college writing class to juniors and seniors first thing in the morning but it has worked out fairly well. The class has brought a new look upon writing which has helped me out a lot. I'm extremely glad I took this class because I am already getting a lot out of it. From the essays and blogs at the beginning of the year I have already seen great improvement in my technique and skills. However I understand that there is still a long way for me to go, but this class has definitely put me on the right track.

I like the whole idea of free writing and allowing us to take our ideas on certain topics and expressing them through our writing. Not only will it in the end improve our skills but it allows us to express how we truly feel about some topics. I also like the way new ideas are brought to the class such as our, "how to make grill cheese," day to introduce us into the next topic we are going to be going into.

For the next quarter of college writing I hope to improve my writing even more than I already have because I feel that it will help me in the long run and is very useful not only in college but still while I am in high school.
