...Prof. Nelson English 49 09 May 2012 As a non-native speaker who immigrated to the U.S. two years ago, English is a big obstacle for me in communication. I have had many difficult times speaking and understanding English when talking to others. Writing an essay was almost impossible for me to think of. Realizing how difficult it was to experience these linguistic difficulties, I then decided to go back to school to improve my English skills. Therefore, English became especially essential for me to succeed in my educational goals. I was determined to earn an Associate’s degree then transfer to a university for a Bachelor’s degree. I started going to ESL classes and studied English very hard to make progress in my speaking, reading and writing skills. After spending one year in ESL classes, I qualified for English 43. I learned lots of grammar and how to write paragraphs efficiently during these classes. I noticed that writing an essay was more challenging when I got into English 49. However, since then I’ve learned how to write a five-paragraph argumentative essay which was one of my weaknesses in academic writings. I have made a lot of progress in writing skills since I started studying English 49. I now think that I’m ready to go on to English 101 due to the fact that I have learned useful strategies to follow a writing process and develop coherent paragraphs effectively. A writing process is the most important step that I learned in this class. First of all, before...

...found out that I needed an English class for my degree plan, I considered not going to college at all. Dramatic right? This is because I knew that essays go hand and hand with any English class like side effects with chemotherapy. And just like the cancer treatment, the pain needs to be endured in order to advance to the next level. So that is what this course was for me -- a 5-week chemotherapy session. I have never had to go through chemo so I do not have the credibility to compare the two, but just allow me to exaggerate my disdain for writing. Throughout this course, I repeatedly participated in the essay review process, was forced to learn how to form a proper thesis, and was introduced to graphic organizing techniques that will, unfortunately, actually help me out in the future. The essay review process is almost as boring as it sounds and is self-defined in its name. Writing an essay consists of brainstorming ideas, creating a rough draft, reviewing the rough draft, then submitting the final paper. We learned this early on in English class and as a matter of fact, we had to submit a “bio” of who we were on the first day of class. Now as I look back at that...

...Expanding your writing ability can be difficult and often times frustrating, but when done well can change the opinions of many. In English 101, I learned the first steps to writing an advanced essay. I learned the importance of asking questions. I also learned how important it research author’s backgrounds. Any author with an extensive background on the information covered in your essay can help establish a stronger credibility .Another important element of an essay is the thesis statement. Over the course of the semester, I have written various type of essay and in each essay the thesis is always the most important sentence. I have learned the necessity of combining the most important information out of an article into one sentence; the thesis statement captures the reader’s attention and sets the tone for the rest of the essay. I also learned that there are different types of thesis statements associated with individual essays. This semester, the class focuses on creating the most effective and appropriate styled thesis statement for each essay. As a whole, I feel that my ability to form thesis statements has gotten stronger, yet I still struggle a bit with pulling them together. I can pull specific points out of an article and recognize commonalities’ with other articles. English 101 have made it easier for me to formulate a well thought out thesis statement and essay. I just spend too much time over thinking the issue. Creating well –supported and detailed body paragraphs...

...Bellanger’s Rhetorical Argument is whether including a thesis is essential in developing a well written essay. First, He defined thesis as a statement that breaks down ideas to ones that can only be proven. Also, it’s the reason as to why writers tend to mainly focus on what they’re writing about. Secondly, Bellanger has the idea that Thesis should only be there for evidence purposes, to solve well defined problems. In reality, many people use their thesis as a way to include unnecessary research in their writing. Bellanger provides examples as to why using inquiry questions is helpful. One of the most important is including questions that lead to discovery. Also, something that’s even more helpful for the writer is getting a better conclusion...

...Running head: ENGLISH-ONLY DEBATE PAPER English-Only Debate Paper Anne-Cecile Grundy Grand Canyon University ESL 523N September 26, 2010 Abstract English language learners are a very heterogeneous and complex group of children, with diverse gifts, educational needs, backgrounds, languages, and goals. They are the fastest growing section of the student population in schools and offer challenges and opportunities to the American education. In this study, the writer will explore the arguments of both sides of the English-only issue, which started decades ago and is still very active today. Emphasis will be placed on the comparison and contrast of the positions presented by advocates and opponents of the English-only debate and will be supported with state’ voter-driven initiatives and laws relating to English language learners. English-Only Debate Paper In the eighteen century, education in the United States was provided in different languages: German, Dutch, French or Swedish. After World War I, when German was a proscribed language, the American population started to think about an education solely in English. However, until 1968, the language policies were left to the discretion of the school, church, city, or state. At this time, the federal government dictated how the non-English-speaking students should be taught, and therefore, started a very controversial debate in the public education sector (Porter, 1998). “In September 1995, Representative John T. Doolittle...

...literature in two major projects this year. First, I received a $2,400 National Endowment for the Humanities Younger Scholars Summer Research Grant. I proposed to expand on a prior research project, looking at the use of silence in the novels of Elie Wiesel, and at the ways Wiesel both demonstrates and gets around the fact that conventional language simply breaks down when it is used to talk about the Holocaust. I plan to expand on the same project for my senior English thesis. For this thesis I am studying the ways Wiesel uses silence in the literal content of his novels and in his writing technique, and am working toward explanations as to how he gives these silences meaning. My fluency in French from my semester of study in Grenoble has been invaluable since most of Wiesel's works were written originally in French. My thesis involves close, formalist readings of Wiesel's novels, and is enriched by theoretical work. (This thesis appears as "Senior Essay" on my transcript; that designation will change next semester to "Thesis.") My second major project this year is a self-designed research project which has just replaced comprehensive exams in...
