Student Writing Journey Reflections

The document is a student's reflection on their experience in an English course. It discusses several key points: 1) The student learned about using the Weebly website to create their own website for free. They also improved their understanding of the writing process through multiple drafts. 2) Unfamiliar tasks like analyzing different text genres and using MLA format were initially challenging but became easier through practice and feedback. 3) While the student still has areas for improvement, they felt proud of developing better writing skills and gaining a slight enjoyment of writing. Repeated practice helped overcome challenges.

Final Experience Word

I am not sure that I learned about the writing process in this course, but I believe I learned

about a discovery that my professor suggested about the Weebly website. Weebly website is

completely free to create your website, so it allows build anything to put your website like

images. Plus, I think I learned about how to make correct steps like introductions and

explanations. I think all the essay drafts improved my understanding of the writing process by

using rhetorical situations and writing styles because it allows me to work on what I do with

exactly those. For example, I know what I do with this writing process like an experienced

writer. If I don’t have experience with all essay drafts, I won’t be able to write answers to any

questions from the writing process stress or panic feeling. In addition, I believe I understand how

to make a comfortable view with understanding clearly and connect as a wire. For example, I

make sure to separate unit writings, so it should be a comfortable view and focus topic point on

each unit writing. Does this writing process improve my writing and understanding? I think it is

a helpful lot to other courses if it is possible. Also, I understood what I did comfortably for

audiences, and it just slightly made me want to write and my writing skills improved. For

example, I don’t want to be put into a ridiculous mess and misinformation for the audience as

lost kids. Fun fact, I have not used writing skills for a long time, and I wouldn't say I like it. Once
Martinez 2

I continued to write essays for the need to pass class, I gained more to more writing and slightly

sharp writing skills. I realized that I gained a slight likeability to writing.

I learned about analysis prompts: genre text, visual text, and peer-reviewed article

journals. I never heard of those. I don’t know how I properly write about those, but I slowly

learned and gained experiences from feedback, mistakes, and explanations. Imagine I had never

driven before, so I started driving to learn. Once I understood how I properly drove, I was finally

able to drive with no hesitation. Anyway, I learned about carefully reading the prompt, the

introduction, the body, and the summary with an understanding of analysis prompts. For

example, I was using the first point of view without carefully reading the prompt that it wanted

to use the third of point view. Another example, I understood how to write an introduction, body,

and summary by listening to the professor’s explanations and the website’s explanations.

Anyway, what are the feedback and mistakes about? I learned those from classmates and

professors. They use suggestions about explanations and fixing grammar by noticing my

mistakes and need more words as detail. In addition, are those helpful for other courses and the

future? Those should be helpful because that makes my analysis of writing technique improve

and reduces my struggle to those if it is about writing. It helps to improve my writing speed and

create ideas with no hesitation too.

I haven’t answered this question. That is because I haven’t made changes or revised a lot

in my final portfolio. How did it happen? I learned from revising essays in this course to avoid

plagiarism and confused grammar. That is from my professor and classmates' feedback. It is

about fixing grammar, needing detail, and giving explanations. For example, I write grammar

with off-topic and that I am not aware of. My professor helped me to realize that through her

feedback, so I learned from my mistakes. Ville Valo's quote says, "There's always reasons to
Martinez 3

make mistakes. Because then you do new mistakes next time. So they're beautiful mistakes."

Mistakes always make my writing skills improve. It can relate to other courses too. Anyway, it

helps me to save time and less doing. That is the biggest benefit to me. How is it a great benefit

to me? It is proof to me that’s how I learned a lot from this course.

Am I finding it that difficult to figure out what to revise since I did well? I doubt that

because I haven't a keen eye for editing and proofreading. I should expect to make changes

because I always thought my writing skills were not good. Plus, my reading skill is not well that

I aware from high and middle school. If there are no changes needed, I would be shocked and

happy about it. That's because I never get a single essay without changes needed, so it is quite a

huge deal to me. As a surprise, it is happening in the final portfolio. I am quite accomplished

about it, or I don't remember about the past that I may already have it before. Why did I do that?

That is because I only just want to be proud of myself. That is why I haven't been aware of how

my talents, skills, and things are good or bad. Plus, it led to the reason that I always thought my

writing and reading skills were not well. If you are wondering why I thought I believed my

writing and reading skills were not good, I am not sure how I explained it. I tried my best to

explain clearly because I am not well at putting words in it. Furthermore, I quite doubted myself

in high and middle school because that made it easy looking to me. Why don't I focus on the

present time? I don't realize that, so I focus on past time to present time for right now. I should

not trust my doubts, but sometimes, doubts are valued as “hidden” answers. It helps you to find

the truth that you need to know. Also, John Banville's Quote says, "Doubt is often better than

overconfidence, for it leads to inquiry, and inquiry leads to invention." Once again, I feel like I

have improved that my writing skills are improving, and that I am proud of myself. However, I

still have a lot to do about improving to be prepared for the future.

For the audience to understand my website, I use simple details, exact topic points, and

comfortable choices as a guidebook. For example, one of the audiences is not good at

understanding high-level grammar with professorial words. I should create simple details for

them as one of the audiences. It is the same thing with exact topics and comfortable choices.

How do I make understanding of unit writings for those who are unfamiliar with them? Once

again, I simply use simple details and exact topic points with an explanation of unfamiliar words

and examples. I hope it may be enough for them to understand. For example, they may be

unfamiliar with a genre they have never heard. I would detail it for them, and I give them

examples. That is about exact topic points. For example, most audiences never learn about

scientific words, so I should explain them too. That is how I make them understand unit writing's

genre and topic points. In addition, how do I know those are enough? Well, I am using my

judgment skills and myself as an imagination clone. That is because I know about their

experience through my “copy” skills. In other words, I hope I can get feedback from my

classmates and professor, but I am quite too lazy to communicate with them.

I do not remember the most challenging things about this course. However, I think I have

struggled with unfamiliar things that I have never seen before. That is about MLA format,

analysis prompt: written genre, visual text, and a peer-reviewed journal article. I haven’t learned

those from my high school and middle school yet. Anyway, I don’t know about MLA format, but

I slowly learning about it from this course. I was making mistakes in the right way in MLA

format. In other words, I didn’t understand how the analysis prompt did exactly in the beginning.

Once I learned mistakes in a guidebook, I understood what I do exactly with analysis prompts.

Imagine I am a gamer with knows all the games, but I have never seen a game with a strange

process. I started to play it, and I made many mistakes. I slowly understood how it works by
Martinez 5

learning from my mistakes. I think that’s all my most challenging about unfamiliar things. In

addition, I remember that I struggled with a lot of word essays like 1000-word essays. How have

I overcome it? Well, I should use kill strategies: put to “the” or “a” and direct quote if possible.

That may reduce words enough. Suppose someone says, “How do you have only one and no

other things like grammar”, I experienced and learned most of the writing process from my

English class with a lot of feedback. Experience is quite helpful. If it talks about academic

grammar, I can’t write that. That is because of my lack of writing technique. I only know basics

and simple writing techniques like complex sentences and parts of speech: nouns and verbs.

Do I have any least challenges with this course? I have many challenges, but I don’t

remember those because my brain is not interested in them. It wants only to gain new knowledge

that it has never seen before. I tried my best and picked three of my least challenges. The first of

the least challenging is grammar. I mention that, so it is important to write. Anyway, I am used to

it, and it is not a big deal about challenges. That is because it relates to texting, communication,

and essays that I use. Fun fact, I would struggle with grammar without technology. The second

of the least challenging is the basic and simple writing technique. I quite using it a lot more than

professorial or high-level grammar. Why do I do that? That is because I am more comfortable

writing with those than professorial or high-level grammar. Plus, I haven’t knowledge of

professorial grammar too. The third of the least challenging is questions. I can answer questions

as I understand. If I can't answer or understand those questions, I simply ask to professor or AI. It

is quite effective in less time. It is quite easy to do. If I never did that, I would be unable to

answer questions for a long time and create a waste of my time. Anyway, I think those are my

three of the least challenging with remembering all I have.

I think I learned a lot from this course. How will my writing skills improve from this

course? It helped me a lot by learning a lot of feedback and mistakes. I am quite grateful for that

because I feel confident about the writing process and what I do exactly. I think those

experiences and lessons would be helpful to other courses and the future because those quite

need to use what engineers probably should have. That means I am confidently ready to take

what I have learned for my future career, but I still have a long way to go. I don’t take lightly to

future as an “easy” way too. If I underestimated it, I would fall into a trap soon. Anyway, I am

proud that I can somehow write an essay with many words. That is because I was not too fond of

lots of words essays like thousand words, and I never used my writing skills a lot. Once in this

course, I slowly improved my writing speed, quickly created ideas of words, and slightly

likeability to writing skills. Imagine I'm not too fond of food and judge it that I have never tasted

before. Once I taste it, I realize it is delicious as an addiction. Once again, this class helped my

writing skills improve and learned unfamiliar things. That I am proud of it.
