My Approach to Writing
Percy Smith
ENG 115

My goals for this course are to learn how to understand my audience better. I would like to be able to see and fix my grammar and spelling mistakes. Learn how to write a more professional paper. I would like to learn what tone I need to write my papers in so I can keep my audience more interested and focused.
I expect to use writing in my college career writing reports and essays for my courses. In my professional life, right now I don’t do any writing. I probably will when I get my degree and get a different job, then I will probably have to write reports. In my personal life, I don’t do any writing other than on Facebook and text messages and I rarely do that.
Setting goals for myself when writing a paper is fairly simple. I jot down what I know on the subject. I then research to get more information. I then set myself a schedule to work on the paper a little every night. Then I strive to make the paper the best I can.
When writing for others, my biggest challenge is making my paper as perfect as it can be. I have always had a fear of not being able to write what is expected from the assignment. I have always feared I will fail on what I’m writing. That being said, I still strive to put forth all my effort into the paper.
