English used to be my favorite subject since I was middle school, even though English is my second language.


I am taking English 101 for three reasons. First reason is that, English is not my second language so that I wanted to take English classes to improve my skills. I came from India two years ago so I have this Indian accent that I want to change. My professor from last semester said that I can be a really good writer if I keep practicing my skills. Second reason is that, It's a required course at NEIU for freshmen. And finally the third reason is that, Every major or career needs so kind of perfection in writing skills. 

I also took Senior Composition in my senior year so I typed 15 to 20 page long paper which was the great experience for me. That's the class that encouraged me more about improving my writing skills. 


By the end of this class, I would like to improve my vocabulary skills because I have poor vocabulary skills and I also want to learn how to type a college level paper. I really want to work hard on the papers for this class so that I can do my best in all that papers that I will have to type in future. 


One of my best quote for writing is:


" We don't write because we have to say something, we write because we have something to "say"." 


This is my favorite quote from Senior Composition class that I will never forget.
