I have never been the strongest reader or writer since I can remember. All throughout middle and high school, I have had my parents or other students help me write my papers. With their help, I was able to get good grades on the papers, but I still did not feel satisfied to say it was my own work with no help whatsoever. I hope with the help I will receive from the writing center and having peer reviews, I will be able to write papers with few to none grammatical errors and make sure everything flows and makes sense.
Starting my freshman year of high school and leading all the way up to my senior year I had troubles starting and establishing ideas for my papers. I was never able to start my own papers without the assistance of my mom, who was always willing to help me since she realized I was not the strongest writer. Their was one paper in my freshman English class that I will not forget doing. I can not be exact on what type of paper we had written about, but all I know is that it was easily one of the most embarrassing and horrible pieces of work. From memory, I believe that I had to write more than 4 rough drafts and have it peer edited multiple times every time. That was one of the worst times of writing I have ever experienced.
I can not exactly say I have had a bad reading experience. There are some books that I have trouble with corresponding what that author is trying to convey or what he is meaning. Also, some other books are confusing, because I do not know what the bigger words mean and I just skip past them.
