# 70

# 70
     Yeah me! The last blog!! At the beginning of this quarter, I really can’t imagine that I can do the blog in English every day! It’s really glad to see the number of the blogs increased continuously. When the number increased to 70, it means that this course is going to end.
     Eng 110 is relatively tough for us international students. It’s totally different from EDU 107 or 108. The requirements are more restrict and the amounts of assignment are greater. I think the Eng 110 course is pretty useful. It improved my writing skilled dramatically. Such as the blog every day, at the beginning, it’s really an annoying homework since I always need to spend a lot of time to write down at least 250 words. However, till now, the rate to finish a blog is much faster than the rate two months ago. The blog also impel me to concentrate on thinking.
     The other thing we did a lot in this class is peer reviewing, from choosing the most appropriate opening paragraph to writing the Commonplace memo. It’s also a helpful way to improve our writing skills since reading other’s essay can broaden our mind and break the mental set. We can discover different views and aspects based on the same thing.
     The last thing I want mention is the writing center. It’s also a great gain from ENG 110. At first, I didn’t expect to get a lot of help from the writing center since the purpose I go there is for the extra credit. However, after I went there for the first time, I am really satisfied with their high-qualified tutoring.
     Time to say goodbye to the blog~~~
