During Anthropology class last thursday a teacher from the writing center came to visit our class to give us a better understanding of how to write our essays due the following thursday. In class we had to dissect an essay  called “The Disgrace of Man” finding how the topic sentences of each paragraph relate to the thesis statement while at the same time help the flow of the essay along. I learned of new transition words that i can use for helping keep the essay going in a thoughtful manner. Words such as thereby, however, nevertheless and on the other hand can help you make counterpoints or support for your thesis. The teacher from the writing center was very helpful and seemed like he has been teaching for a substantial amount of time.  It was interesting to see how small words can impact your essay and it was a very a good way to find a starting point for my anthropology essays. I plan on visiting the writing center again very soon for more help on english essays.
