1. During this year, I would like to expand the range of sentence structure, and vocabulary that I use in my papers. Despite the fact that I know a large number of vocabulary words, I often struggle to find which words fit that might make the sentence better and usually resort to more basic words that I am comfortable using.
2. I also would like to be able to recognize "good" writing. Most of the essays I read and write are hard for me to distinguish the quality of the writing. I know there are many factors, such as subject, grammar, and sentence structure, but I don't know how to determine what is needed for a great essay.
3. The final goal I have for the year is to produce high quality work and writings, but in a short period of time. In general, the longer I spend writing something, the better the quality of the piece. It takes me anywhere from 30mins-2hours to write a 500-750 word essay, and the less time I spend on it, the more editing and revision are needed. I hope by the end of the year, I can produce great papers in a timely manner.
