reflection of literacy narrative

Writing is not my best subject and I’m not the greatest at it. One thing I know I did right was follow the MLA format! My paper and my title do connect together. I took something from the paper and turned it around to make the title interesting and have the paper come together at the end with the sentence that goes along with the title. Starting from the introduction I think the essay flows well for the most part. My topic is clear and it should be easy for the reader to follow. Next time I will work on spending some extra time on making the transitions better and having the essay fit together perfectly. In my opinion the paper makes sense and is understandable. I think my introduction and my ending could use a lot of work and my body paragraphs could be slowed down and made a little clearer.

Though out my story I use a lot of imagery and emotionally powerful words so the reader can picture what was happening or going through my mind at the moment. I used this is parts to build the suspense or make the reader wanting to know more. I think I could have used it more in certain parts but other than those few parts I think my imagery worked well. As I said my closing could use some work but I think my reflection was good, I explained how this memory affected my life then and how it will affect my life in the future. I explained how even though it wasn’t the best situation I still managed to get something good out of it. I did answer all of the questions that were involved in the assignment. I told the reader what happened and explained exactly what it is using detail and examples. Then I reflected on that event and explained why I still think about it to this day. I could have used a wider vocabulary and gave some more detail to slow the event down and make the reader feel more. The transition in my introduction from the imagery to the event could have flowed better. Also my transition into my last paragraph could have used some work to make the piece come together better. All in all I think my paper was okay but I plan on working to make every paper better as the semester goes on. I also plan on becoming best friends with the writing center! I know writing is not my forte so I obviously need some work but I hope to become a better writer.
