Freshman Seminar Fall 17 CFB

Writing Center

My time at the writing center was educational and inspirational. I learned how to write academic essays in the present and past tense. I also learned sentence structure which I struggled with most of high school. The atmosphere was quiet but you could tell everyone was learning something from the experience just as I was. The past and present tense were difficukt for me to grasp at first but after a while, I began to get the hang of it and now can separate the two at will.

Sentence structure was the down part of my essays throughout high school and my first two college papers. A comment I would always get on essays were “sentence flow was poor” or “writing was sloppy” or “had could points but your writing was disordered and sloppy”. But now after my time at the writing center I can now write sentences clearly in a certain tense and I don’t have poor sentence structure.

My time at the writing center was enjoyable and allowed me to realize my mistakes in my writing skills. This experience compels me to want to go there again if I’m having writer’s block or I feel my writing is not clearly getting my point across to the reader.
