Essay writing: Strengths and weaknesses.

When writing essays I believe one of my biggest weaknesses would be comma spices. I have trouble understanding when and when not to use a comma in a sentence. Another one of my largest weaknesses is creating a proper thesis. When writing I have trouble simply presenting the basis for my argument therefore I don’t have a clear thesis.  I either write a statement that isn’t the true argument I should be focusing on or I make my argument too broad. I would really like to improve on these weaknesses by correcting my comma splices to inevitably have better sentence structure and to have a proper thesis so I can have a great basis for my essays. A strength that I have while writing essays is the ability to use strong adjectives. I prefer to write with larger and more descriptive words in order to keep the text interesting and not too bland. A goal I have based on this lesson is definitely to learn how to write a proper thesis and be able to back it up. I want to be able to do this because if I don’t have a good thesis my entire essay will suffer due to the fact that I have nothing to base my points off of. I hope to be able to write stronger and better essays in the future due to these lessons.
