Final Learning Blog

I can't believe I have made it to the final learning blog. At the being of the semester I was having a pretty hard time with this class because I didn't have the confidence in myself. Throughout the semester my confidence as a writer started to grow. I was slowly becoming more relaxed when it come time for peer reviews because they were looking to see if the content was good and not just focusing on my grammar. During the semester I was searching through my writing to find out what kind of writer I was and during an extra credit assignment I found out that I a forced writer and only write for assignment that are due for my classes. Looking back I can now say that I have confidence in my writing not only in English but also in French. There is still much more I have to  about be a writer but the only way I know how to learn these lessons is by continuing to write, I have a lot more classes if in my college career and with that a lot more writing assignment that will teach me more about writing. As of this semester I glad I had this English class because I have learned a lot and I starting to overcome my fear of writing and my confidence in has started to come back. During this class I have now learn the proper way to write a blog and how to properly peer review my classmates work. During this semester I have had my up and down in writing and after completing other assignment was like a huge load off my back because I was nervous about turn all of the papers.
