Answer: “I plan to use the professional writing I have practiced this month in my future classes through my homework and emails. I will also use the skills I learned in my future career in order to secure it (i.e. job applications, follow-up emails, etc.). “

Answer: “The assignment I am the proudest of is the final assignment. This assignment details my proposal to plan an event for my local high school in order to provide students with resources to get into the entertainment industry. I have never made such a professional deal like this, especially on paper.”

Question: “Looking back on what you’ve created this month, what do you feel is your biggest strength as a writer? How has that area improved this month? What about this skill would you like to improve?”

Answer: “I feel that my greatest strength as a writer is my general professional grammar. This area has improved as I have added more keywords to my vocabulary as well as fixed previous grammar errors in my writing. I would like to improve this skill in the convincing aspect.”

Question: “Turn a critical eye toward your writing. What do you feel is your greatest area to grow in? Be specific. How will you work on this skill after you leave this class?”

Answer: “The area I feel that I need to grow in is my overall confidence in my writing. Students and professors have pointed out my lack of confidence, specifically in my verbiage. I use a lot of words like, “perhaps” or “maybe”, etc. When you are proposing a deal that is important to you, potential investors can see the lack of confidence and it can turn them away from it.“
