Freshman Seminar Spring 2017 DTD

Taking Advantage of the Writing Center (Academic)

I had two essays to write, one for English (compare&constrast essay) and one for Sociology (book report on “Unequal Childhoods” by Annette Lareau). For each, it took me two days to complete it. I’m the type of person that when I have to hand in an essay or any written work, I MUST reread it several times and have others reread it several times, just to make sure that there are no mistakes and that my point is clearly getting across. The problem, in this case, was that I had no one worthy enough to reread my essay’s. And by that, I mean that my sister was on a trip for the week, my brother was staying w/ my dad for the month, and my mother isn’t from here so she might not understand everything that I’m writing. That’s when I decided to go to the writing center for the first time. Honestly, I think imma go again. They really helped me out and advised me in areas I thought I was set in. I really feel as if my entire way of writing just reached a whole new level of greatness.
