The Writing Center

I visited the writing center on Wednesday, November 19, 2013. I went because it was required and to improve my Literary Analysis. I had a very positive experience and found it more helpful than I thought it was going to be. My writing fellow gave me great advice and changed the way I look at English papers. I will be going to the writing center more often in the second semester.

Sara Alice did not destroy the paper, which is what I thought she was going to do. Instead she commented on the overall flow of the paragraphs. She also noted on my grammatical mistakes that I had not caught before. Throughout the appointment, Sara Alice was giving me compliments about my essay, which made me feel confident. Also, I liked the survey at the end of the appointment because it made me feel like I could help make the writing center experience even better.
