I found this site to be very resourceful because it has everything you need to be a good writer. This site will help me in the future essays, power points, and quizzes I do. I will be sure to use this site tonight when I'm doing my Test#4. I struggle distinguishing an adjective from an adverb but this site helped me distinguish one from the other. This site is also helpful for the three stages of the writing process. It shows you how to do stage one, two, and three of the writing process.
I will also use the website as a guide when I write my Test #4. I will make sure to avoid any grammatical errors or other writing mistakes by using the website. Hopefully, I will be able to prevent making any mistakes.
I agree with you. I like how I can also refer to another guide other than the writing process worksheet. It helps with all the acronyms of grammar we learned too.
I found this webpage to be exceedingly helpful. It was especially helpful because I have a PowerPoint presentation due this week for another class and I have little knowledge on how to manage PowerPoint, so I was provided with tips and steps on how to have a successful presentation. This is also helpful when referring to issues when writing essays, such as COPS, CGPS, CLUESS. It also provides quizzes to test your skills which will assist a student in memorizing important information. I will definitely refer back to this site when I need tips on grammar and writing.
I also have little knowledge on how to manage PowerPoint. Whenever I use PowerPoint my work is disorganized and messy. When I get a PowerPoint assignment I will be sure to go back to this site for help. I will definitely go back to this site for the future classes I take a UOG.
I find that the material on PowerPoints to be very informational. Prior to viewing the website, I did not know how to make a good presentation, as I had to learn to create PowerPoints by myself. However, now that I have a guide, I am glad to know that I can use the website as a resource for future presentations.
I like this site because you can go in and take quizzes. I learn better when I can see what I did wrong. Quizzes help with the aspect of my learning. I am going to bookmark this page for future use. Test 4 being due tomorrow I will have to use this site and double check my grammar.
I will definitely use this site when I'm doing my Test#4. The hardest stage for me in the writing process is Stage 3 and this site will help me with editing and revising my work. I will go back to this site for future reference as well.
I also learn better when I can see and correct the mistakes I made. I think that when I take a quiz, and I see what my mistakes, I make a mental note to never make the same mistake again. I hope that the website's quizzes will help me learn from my past mistakes.
I did find this site resourceful. It has most of what a writer needs to guide them in writing. My favorite part of the site was the writer's block section in the "essay & research paper level" area. Writer's block is probably my biggest problem and a problem anyone has. It says that we're just over thinking it and need to relax when we write. We can fix whatever mistakes we make later in the editing process.
I have writer's block sometimes, as well. I usually get frustrated when I want to be creative or get my work done, but I cannot, because I have writer's block. Luckily, the website is an excellent resource to use to try and combat writer's block.
Indeed. Often the role of revising and editing in overlooked in the initial writing process. We forget that we should simply write what comes to mind and not get caught up with over-analyzing our material. Once we have our thoughts on paper, we can use our time in revising and editing to formulate and arrange such ideas to fit our desired or projected outcome.

I have always wanted a resource like this. Grammar is one of the hardest things to learn in English. Specifically, I am weak at using prepositions. I usually get confused with which verb has to be with what preposition, but this explains all about prepositions, such as, preposition of time,place, and locator. Also, it explains about prepositions with Nouns, Adjectives, and Verbs. I am talking about just one part of Guide to grammar and writing. There are plenty more resources are on this website. I will try to use this a lot.
I am weak in distinguishing adverbs from adjectives but this site was really helpful for me. There are a lot of resources on this site and in the future En classes I take I will definitely go back to this.
