During the English 101 class, I learned valuable skills in doing works of research through the guidance and tutorship of the instructor and feedback from classmates. I also learned how to research, analyse and document information and ideas in order to develop a position or statement.
Thesis statement: brainstorming varied ideas to support a claim, by using research and documented data while drawing guidance and support from the instructors and the peers. For the purpose of this essay, I will use instances and examples to demonstrate the maturity and absolute growth of the skills and objectivity that have been named. In the essay Heroic, I will support the position of these objectives.
In principle, the term heroic refers to characters that have demonstrated abilities and behaviours that are out of the ordinary or are widely speculated traits to be considered worthy in that respect. For example, in the first draft, the first paragraph” In reality though,perfect heroes are normal people who step up at the opportune moment to help solve a crisis. In often times the society will create myths of who a hero should be forgetting random acts of selflessness by different or same person(s) should be regarded as heroic” changed, because I dropped the middle sentence from,”in often times up to the end of that sentence. The final sentence reads,which is quite unfortunate as heroes in our society end up unappreciated. In reality though, perfect heroes are normal people who step up at the opportune moment to help solve the crisis” this confirms that guidance of the instructor was worthy to remove the parenthetical sentence.when a person worthy of the name hero; ought to exhibit highest standards of morality or socially acceptable behaviours and traits. In the present day and age, persons worthy of the name hero are a representation and culmination of the voiceless and the oppressed within the construction of acceptable and permissible behaviours.
The first draft in the second paragraph was also improved in terms of seamless prose and good grammar, after the guidance from the instructor and peer reviews. For instance, the original sentence read, in part”Having good morals is another characteristic of becoming a hero. People look at others who have high valued morals with respect and envy. I know I wish my morals were higher than what they are” But later on it changed to “Good morals are necessary traits of becoming a hero as it portrays respect and people from the society envy such characters in a person.” Clearly the second improvement is grammatically appealing and analytically accurate so that the reader would find the improved draft good enough and enjoyable.
In the essay, Saving Baby Abdullah there is instances of semantic changes after the careful analysis and care of from the instructor on how to make the essay more enjoyable and weighty in terms of theme. For instance”It was in a Fridaymorning after attending a morning Mosque service in the neighbourhood,and everyone was thinking of going swimmingafter a cold season of winter”In the first paragraph, after the guidance and direction of the instructor, I spaced the term in the “neighbourhood” because it was repetitively parenthetical to my essay. After brainstorming, and considering instruction, I realized that the term in a sentence does not add grammatical value to the essay. Brainstorming and analysis I realised by mentioning everyone in the neighbourhood, it adds little value since in the preceding statements; the idea was already highlighted in that regard. Consequently, it read Friday morning after attending a morning Mosque service in the neighbourhood, and everyone was thinking of going swimming after a cold season of winter here it shows that the terms neighbourhood and the, are joined together. Similarly, there was an error in the spelling of Friday, which I improved later on with guidance of the instructor and analytic brainstorming. By factoring in all the comments and the guidance of the instructor, the overall flow of ideas and manners is seamless. The final draft is inherent in terms of prose and flow of idea.
Conclusion
In the above essay, I have highlighted the basic objectives which have benefited me in the course of English 101. Some of the benefits include guidance on how to write flowing sentence in terms of prose so that my essay is rigorous in terms of content.
