Writing Center

     The last time I went to the writing center was in the beginning of the second semester. I went to the writing center to get help on my research paper that we were working on for English and Social Studies. Even though this was my second time going this year, I was still pretty nervous to go in. I thought that the writing center would be very scary, and the other students wouldn't help that much. Once I finally walked in and sat down I realized I was wrong and that this was a place to relax, not stress.
     Once my writing fellow and I started to work, he asked me to read it out loud. When I heard this, I thought that it was going to be so useless, and thought that he should be the one doing this. After reading it aloud, I realized how many mistakes I could have fixed by doing this myself. The once we fixed those I told him we should work on my transitions. When we finished I reread my paper and realized how much better it sounded by such little work.
