Christiansen Chapter 3

Essays are one of the most difficult things students can tackle in their English classes, but especially outside in other classes. Most notably, classes in the humanities category see this struggle the most. Therefore, it is critical to get students to be comfortable in writing essays in English so they can then be more comfortable in other classes. For me, I felt that being a decent writer was one of the most important and beneficial characteristics I had to offer when it came to writing essays for teachers in other classes. Not only is essay writing critical for demonstrating one's knowledge in a subject area in a knowledgable manner, their comfort in what they are writing can allow a student to attain a greater level of understanding on subjects they may have not been as enthusiastic about before. Once a student is able to hash out their ideas properly, they can really get a whole lot more out their learning experience.
