During my senior I have learned so many new and beneficial ways to evaluate, analyze, and compose literature. I have grown as a student and became prepared and confident about going into college in a few short months. English IV has taught me who I am as a writer, and as an audience to literature. I believe that this year has helped my find my voice when it comes to expressing my ideas through essays.
For me, the most important aspect was the research paper. The process of writing a ten page paper was completely new to me, and going through it allowed me to practice time management, but more importantly I learned how to insert my own voice in a paper that was consumed by research. Through this paper I also learned an abundant amount of information on drug consumption and depression, which are topics that are relevant and will continue to become more relevant as I go into the next chapter of my life. Previously, I was unaware of details in this topic.
Having experienced this assignment, I now realize that an English paper can be beneficial not just as a grade, but more so as knowledge that can be carried with me throughout the rest of my life. This growth as a student and a person has prepared me to head to college and live independently.
