This week in my time in the writing center I worked with a different tutor but I can not remember his name. We looked at a paper a pre pharmacy student brought it, it was a little different because the teacher did not want his students to restate anything in the assignment he wanted them to get straight to the point. After we finally got what the point of the paper was the was not much the girl had to do a little fixing here and there. Like adding for information say what her opinion was and just rearranging a few paragraphs.
Part two:
Chapter 5 to me was very useful to me, here thinking I need to add information or build something up for the reader but really sometimes you just need to get to the point. Also with some word choice you think it great for what you are saying but to the reader it looks like you are not confident in what you are saying so it is good to go back and look at those words.
Here is a example from my letter:
In the Friday February 1st paper there was an article in the opinion section titled “New Pullman parking policy shows too much mercy” by Dylan Parker just talking about the new policy that the city of Pullman is trying enforce about giving warnings to first time violators who receive a parking ticket. I strongly believe this is a great idea for the city of Pullman especially being a college town and always have new people coming in out. A lot of people are not familiar with where there is restricts like permit parking or free parking.
In the first sentence change the first part to in the February 1st. In the second part change that hole section to: This policy is a great ides for a college town like Pullman, where there are always new people coming through.
So in this weeks writing center I ended up working with the same girl Nina I did last week.
My time in the writing center I worked with Nina.
-Here I just cut a lot of the nonsense that I did not need.
