Week 2 Assignment

Write about the place you live Optimistic: When I enter my apartment after a long workday, I find it calm, relaxing and cool. The light of the setting sun penetrate all the way to the farthest corner of my room which otherwise is dark. Angry: This room is too dark. It is making me feel depressed. There is no window in bathroom. Every single corner needs to be illuminated by artificial lights. This is not my type of room. Excited: I like the cleaning days not because I like working hard for another hour after a long day at office but because I think of the times when my apartment is all clean and shiny. I like every corner of it. I can sit on living room floor, drink my wine while I am listening to my favorite music.

Week 1 Assignment

I typically write business letters at the office but as a PhD, I want to write essays. I do have many ideas in my mind and I want to learn how to write academic essays in order to be able to share my knowledge and ideas. I do not enjoy writing. I never start a writing process correctly. I always skip the planning phase or spend little time for it, therefore, my writing is without structure and usually I can't convey my message to the reader. In order to be a good essay writer, I need to improve the whole process of writing specifically the planning phase. For the text itself, my transition words and sentences are weak. My text is not easy and smooth.
