This second semester, I visited the
writing center for my research project. I met with a writing fellow named
Douglas who was very kind and knew exactly what he was doing. My main issue
with my research paper is that it felt like it had an odd coherence. I had
massive paragraphs that would take up almost two pages each. Douglas showed me
that I had no reason to make these paragraphs as long as they were and
suggested that I divide each one into two or three more paragraphs. After I did
this, the paper already began to look much better. Douglas also recommended
that I add in transitions to each paragraph to allow the reader to keep better
track of what I was writing. Douglas was able to revise my paper in a kind and
simple way. I am glad that he helped me because I got an A in the end.
