Journal 1

I had a great experience with ENC1101 especially with it being one of my first college classes.  Luckily, I chose Professor Warrens class for ENC1101 and that is why I am taking a night class again, because I enjoy her style of teaching very much.  I feel that her method of teaching eased me into the rest of the courses I have taken since I have started college.  Her use of peer critique was one thing I thoroughly enjoyed in class.  I think some of my strengths since I took ENC1101 are my expanded vocabulary, essays are more detailed, and I learned how to structure an essay better.  I still have trouble with taking my thoughts and putting all of it together to form a great paragraph.  Also, punctuation sometimes gets me here and there.  I would rather have a list of topics to choose from than creating my own topic; I have the most difficult time starting an essay from nothing.  I loved having a list of topics when I was in my ENC1101. This is one of the problems I have in English that I really would like to work on this semester and better my skills.  In ENC1101 we wrote I want to say eight types of essays and we used examples from our books to reference back to and learn from, we also used essays from other classes to give us a better example of what was expected.
