ACE

This week I failed to schedule an ACE appointment. I called to schedule one on Thursday, but I was told there are no available times on either Thursday or Friday. So, for this blog, I will write about a writing ACE appointment I had a few weeks ago.

English is my least favorite subject, and I needed desperate help with writing a paper for English. I had a rough draft for my paper but was having some organizational issues that I didn't know how to resolve. Also, I needed help with focusing my argument and deciding exactly what the argument was in my paper. I always have the worst time writing papers, so, hoping ACE could help, I scheduled an appointment. At the appointment, the writing coach sat down with me and read through my paper aloud so both of us could more easily hear the mistakes. This was really helpful because as she read aloud, she pointed out where revisions could be made. She helped me learn some organizational techniques that really helped me focus my argument. Also, she was very nice with explaining the flaws in my paper.

I would definitely recommend the writing ACE sessions. ACE isn't only for those of us who are bad writers (like me), but also for good writers that want to make their paper even better. A second opinion never hurts!
