My writing skills have improved spectacularly. Thanks to the journal practices and the grammar review during class, i was able to get a better on explaining my topic to the reader using proper grammar. I planned my essays’ out, wrote the rough draft, showed it to my classmates and teacher to see what they think of it, and then finally wrote the final draft with some corrections and submitted it online and a paper copy to my teacher. When i got the second essay back i was shocked. I got a perfect score on it. This showed that I have improved aggressively in a short period of time. I felt extremely confident on myself when writing essays now. I knew I was gonna score high on this essay, but I didn’t expect to get a perfect score. I compared my first essay to my second essay to see where I have improved and it seems like I’ve improved on clarity/syntax and convention. I’ve improved on my grammar and spelling so those two those helped me scored higher points.
