My goals in Englcom (DRAFT)


To read, one must be able to write.



Writing is perhaps one of the most important elements in communication.  There is a great power in the written word and that certain “power” is found in writers whose words, skills and passion have the ability to move their readers in a way that could promote change.  In this writing class, my main goal is to become an effective and versatile writer.

To be an effective and versatile writer, one must be able to motivate his/her audience to act by expressing his/her thoughts clearly through writing. If I were to inspire and encourage my audience to act, I must be able to write well.  To do that, I must expose my readers to new ideas with the right words that can open their minds to the message I want them to see. In accordance with that, I want to widen my vocabulary in my Englcom writing class.

Like any other goal, it is not enough to just aspire—there must also be action. To fulfill my objectives for this class, one of the things I have to do is to read more.  Through reading, I can expose myself to different writing styles and techniques and expand my vocabulary as well.  I can express clear thoughts by writing cohesively, giving clear ideas, stressing my main points , presenting coherent messages and  by following the right formats and conventions of writing. To inspire my audience, I can use my personal experiences as well as others’ and relate them to my essays.

My goal in this writing class is not totally impossible—it is reachable. To achieve them,I must always keep them in mind whenever I am writing and give effort on making research about my topics. I recommend my readers to be open minded when they read and to my fellow writers, always think of the audience and how your works may affect them, their lives and their perspectives.

  3. I personally like the whole essay!
    It's very focused on the topic sentences per paragraph. It's very well-elaborated. The conclusion struck me the most because of your positive outlook in this subject in terms of your goals. It's not that long but it's really catchy.
    Keep up the good work!
