I went to the writing center last Tuesday during our English class. My writing fellow was a senior named Emma Scott. I knew her from my Spanish class, so knowing her made it a little less awkward. But overall, it was a great experience and Emma Scott really helped me.
First she asked me to read my paper aloud and I caught some typos and Emma Scott took notes. After I had finished she showed me what she thought I needed to work on, which was my introduction and quotes. She showed me why my introduction did not flow very well and we came up with a solution to fix it. We then went through my quotes, getting rid off what we thought was not needed. After that we both read it through again and worked on my introduction some more. She told me it was the one thing not working for some reason. So, we sat there until we figured it out and it turned out I was not being clear enough.
My trip to the writing center was a success and I will use it in the future for sure.
I totally agree, the Writing Center was a huge help and I will definitely utilize it more often.
