I learned how to support my main idea or perspective better and how to get my audience of my essay to see that main idea. I can even see my improvement between my first essay and my last. With the help of this class, I was able to see my mistakes in my first essay that I was not able to see when Mr. Melancon, my English 101 professor, first gave back our essays at the beginning of the semester. I fully understand why my perspective was not clear in my first essay.

Reflective Essay: The Failure Of My Writing

Everyone wants the highest grade possible in their writings, whether I put effort into doing I am no different. I have found that English 101 isn't that simple. Although I've been a failure I still got up and worked hard on my writing and its structure by using “Grammarly” and my tutor at Franklin High School.
