Essay on Writing Self-Evaluation
I believe it is important for any student who wants to do their best in a class to take a moment to
evaluate their own work to determine the rate their writing is progressing and how they can
continue to advance their writing. When I looked through my own work I asked myself "what have
I learned this semester?" and "what do I still need to learn in order to improve my writing?".
Answering both these questions will help me with my last step of my self–evaluation, developing a
plan to learn new skills.
During this semester, I have strengthened my writing by trying new writing techniques, learning
about purpose, and finding new ways of combating writers block. My first essay in this class was
less focused then the essays I wrote later in...show more content...
I have struggled with writer's block with often. In the past, I've learned to take breaks while
writing to help alleviate symptoms of writers block; however, during the semester I have learned
to carry a pad of paper with me so that I can write down idea's while they are fresh in my mind.
Writing down my thoughts has helped me avoid writers block because I have a list of thoughts
about the subject before I have even started writing. When I struggle less to write it improves my
essay's by decreasing my stress, this can be seen in my writing. I was afflicted with writer's block
while trying to write both my compare and contrast essay and my description essay, this caused
me a lot of stress and caused my essay to suffer. On the other hand, when I wrote my classify and
divide essay I did not have to deal with writer's block. As a result the stress level was greatly
decreased and the improvement is substantial.
Although my writing has made some good progress during the course of this semester, I still some
things I need to learn in order to keep improving my writing. Grammar, writing in an active voice,
and building my rewrite skills are three examples of skills I need to build upon to continue to
improve me writing.
Even though my grammar has improved during the progression of this class, I still have a lot to
learn before my knowledge of grammar can contribute to my writing. I have never had an aptitude for

Mid-Self Evaluation Essay
Mid–Self Evaluation Essay As this semester has begun, and I have begun to adjust to this course's
requirements, expectations, and goals I have found myself taking more risks and challenging my
prior writing style. I've been a little apprehensive with my writing style this semester and feel that
at times I may be missing the entire ideas of the topic. Although I do the work and get a good
grade, I always feel uncertain before posting a blog or turning in my final assignment. Although the
entire courses topic is nothing foreign to me it has become a challenge for me to write about. The
homework reading materials and blogs have been very helpful for me so far in this semester. I've
found much inspiration for both the literacy narrative...show more content...
When we do participate in peer reviews and reflections I make sure I do not rush my work and am
careful to respond in sufficient time. In the Official SCSU English Dept. Goals they have also
listed a section entitled The Rest. "The Rest: Regular preparation and participation (includes
timeliness, effort, improvement, participation in class discussion), peer support, surprise quizzes:
15%", I feel that as a student in English 112 I have regularly participated in class, have offered peer
support and advice, and have done very well on the surprise quizzes we've had. Peer editing has
helped me become a stronger and more fluid writer this semester. I've never actually done peer
editing within a familiar group before every paper, so having a specific day to read and comment on
one another's writing in detail has truly helped me formulate better essays overall. It has helped me
not only to see small mistakes I've made, but how the reader or audience interprets my work. Aside
from peer editing inside the classroom I've taken my papers to the writing center and you for advice
and help. I think that through the use of these sources it has helped me to develop stronger claims,
better fluidity, and coherency. By formulating ideal structures, engaging in peer editing, and creating
reflection pieces, they have helped me generate overall better papers.
My food narrative had very strong claims and an overall clear and coherent paper,

Personal Self Assessment Essay
Self assessment is a process in which you examine yourself in attempt to discover and learn more
about yourself. Your likes, dislikes, behaviors, attitudes and habits can be found during this process.
You can use the discoveries to your advantage by accepting or changing strengths and weaknesses. I
plan on using this course to enhance my personal skills to become a better student and find success
in earning my Bachelor of Arts degree at Ashford University in Social Science.Self Assessment is
the first step in my successful future.
I can remember in high school, it seemed like I was always one of the last students finished with a
test.
I was sometimes slower at completing a written paper or an assignment. In open discussions...show

I have discovered some interesting things I have noticed in myself before taking this course. For
example, my learning style I have noticed is the visual learning style.
With this, I prefer to see and read information to full gain comprehension. If I forget the data, or
not clearly understand it the first time read, I have the option of reading it over. I do not always
trust myself to absorb all information the first time around. I take a lot of notes to look at. Notes
help me remember even though I may not read the again, I can refer to them in my mind after
writing them down. I am not sure if just anyone reading them would get anything out of it, but at
least I know what they mean.
I like to take my time with material, but am not always given the allotted time to do so. I also like
to keep a written list of things to do to refer to. I am comfortable with my learning style, accepted
it as my very own. I am not sure if changing it this late in life is such a good idea. I have got by this
far, it must work out for me.
I have identified my personality style as being extroverted, one who becomes easily energized by
others, and outwardly expressing thoughts as long as I am fully understanding context and material
being discussed. If I have no idea what is being addressed, I am better of keeping quiet to save
myself from
