Overall, I feel I have greatly improved this past semester. I never enjoyed the writing process growing up, so now I am glad to say that it is something I no longer find like a waste of time. I am very proud that I can make a boring essay sound somewhat exciting for the reader and for me. I have noticed that with some assignments I have trouble with my organization skills. In the next semester I will strive to plan out exactly where I want certain parts of my essay to be. This goal will make the assignment seem less stressful for me and would make it easier for the reader to distinguish my thoughts. Im excited for more obstacles to come my way in the next semester so it can teach to become a more advanced writer for the years to come. Please write a short comment answering the following questions:
What piece of writing did you like best in my portfolio and why?
What did you like about my portfolio and sharing and what would you like to see me improve on?
Which of the writing traits (ideas, organization, voice, word choice) do you feel was most successful for me?
Which of the traits of writing would you like me to improve on in the coming semester?
I liked the Querencia essay the most because now I understand why Sheryl loves to dance so much and how she feels when she is at the studio. I liked the layout of the website and how she explained the purpose of every assignment, but the descriptions of each trait could be improved. Voice would have to be the most successful trait because I felt a connection while reading the essay. The Westernization of Hawaii and Oceans of Nothing essays were not as good as they could be. Therefore, the ideas trait was not very successful, but I know it can be improved.
