English Reflection

As I type each and every single one of my essays, I get the sense that everything is perfect by the time I am finished. There might be a few errors that will be pointed out to me when I have a peer review my work, but overall, I think I did a good job. Yet,when I look back on my work from my freshman year, I find my writing to be undeveloped and in that same consistent five paragraph format. It's almost comical how many times I wrote my essays in that format in the past. However, as I moved up in English, I noticed that my writing style has  changed, and how I slowly started to break away from writing five paragraph essays.

The one thing that I notice the most about me when reflecting back on my work is that my strongest piece of writing are the ones that focuses on me. My memoir from my junior year and my journey essay from my senior year are not only the essays that I enjoyed writing the most, but also the ones that I got the highest scores on because of the strong emotions that I portrayed. The memories that I have from my life are very emotional pieces that I overall enjoy to write about. I find them to be very moving because of how raw the emotions feel when I write them as they are still very lucid in my head. I want to paint that image to readers when I write these pieces.

There are very few personal narrative essays that I am assigned to write to my disappointment. There are more essays that have to deal with a specific topic rather than one that relates to myself. I struggled with some of these essays, but have learned methods to strengthen my writing. All of the vocabulary words that I have learned have really made my essays sound more sophisticated and stronger in conviction. Although I find my senior English essays to be the best set of essays that I have written, I hope that I can look back and say that I have written even better pieces since then.
