This course helped to improve my reading, writing, and research abilities through each writing assignment given. Each essay challenged various aspects of our writing, from our abilities in creative writing, to argument, to research. As my skills in each area improved, my confidence in my writing improved as well.
Originally, I had never considered myself a talented writer, even when I achieved success in writing in high school. As I began to write more challenging essays in college, I was unsure of my abilities; however, when I would discuss my essays with my professor and see their final grades, I realized I had more talent than I originally thought. While the class certainly improved my writing, it also helped me to be confident in what I wrote.
Now that both my writing and my writing confidence have improved, I can look forward to fulfilling writing requirements of the future. As I hope to eventually perform research in areas of Computer Science, I believe that my newly gained skills and confidence will help my writing to be at a high enough level to contribute in said research.
