The goals that I set for myself on the first day of class were to fix the known errors in my writing. Issues like not expanding on the main idea of a paragraph or not being able to analyze texts properly. A year from now, I believe these will no longer be an issue. I also firmly believe that the errors of my writing that I have pointed out will no longer be an issue but a vital tool to tackle the other writing obstacles I’ll face later in my writing career.  With the assistance of my English professors and the Writing Center, my writing skills today and by the end of the second semester will be non-identical as I come into tune with the college writing level and meet its standards throughout the year. I believe these resources will assist me in fixing the errors that I have stated earlier and the other numerous flaws that also plague my work. With that said, I also trust my resources at Baruch will also make the brightest spots of my writing, like my word choice, grammar, clarity, even more brilliant than I can imagine. As each semester goes on, I will correct the issues introduced to me by both parties on each assignment given to me. As each writing assignment goes by, I expect it to be more efficient than the last. This initiative and outlook will have to be my mindset going forth from now. To improve my writing and not only meet my professor’s writing standards but exceed them.
