The lessons on sentence structure and comma usage has been the most use for me in this course this semester so far. I need more practice on sentence structure and being to tell where commas and other punctuations belong. To better this skill for me outside of class I need to read the book more and I need to take my time when I am editing my own essay. Also pay close attention when doing peer review and when another fellow classmate or I acknowledges a mistake in an essay, so I can go back my own essay and look for the same mistake to be sure it is not made in my own essay. This helps me learn from others mistakes. I felt as if my thesis statements and outlining skills were strong spots for me. After being in this class I realized they need some improvement. The activities we did in class and were assigned for homework really helped me become able to pull supports from the thesis statement. I also learned a new format for the thesis statement. This was a helpful course as a whole. Even if I did pass the Writing Sample Placement Test, I still feel as if it would have benefited me greatly would even consider talk it regardless.
