English 110 Fall 2023

Self Assessment: Assingnment 1

When I was writing the first draft for literacy narrative, the topic that came to my mind was writing about how I overcame my fear to get better at something I thought I could never be good at, which is learning how to read, write and speak in English. I thought about the first time when I came to United States and I was dealing with so many issues in middle school. My situation relates to lot of other immigrants who attend school for the first time after coming to United States. I have provided many events from my middle school experience which explains how speaking English as good as students who are born in United States can be tough but it is not impossible. The setting of my literacy narrative was my middle school where I was bullied by other students for not being able to speak proper English. I explained how I started with basic English by watching cartoon and later I learned harder English. The title of my narrative was “My Middle School Experience”, which is relatable to my story. The closing reflecting of my story was the main thing my middle school experience taught me which is teenagers in this country are full of hate and majority of them will not like you if you cannot be like them. After reviewing my first draft, I found a lot of mistakes I made with grammar, tense and spelling. I was able to find a lot of other mistakes when I sat down with Mrs. Pringle to talk about my essay. I edited them all before submitting my final draft.
