Before ENGLCOM, I usually don\u2019t put sources in essays. In our ENGLCOM class, we were taught how to use APA style citation and how to use them in essays. Before I only put the link of the web pages after my essays but now, I learned how to cite sources using APA citation and the in-text citation. I learned how to make an effective thesis statement. I thought that a thesis statement is only used in thesis and not in essays. I now know that thesis statements are required because it tells the readers the topic and the main idea of the essay. One of my expectations in this subject was to expand my vocabulary. I have improved my it by writing essays and reading articles. I still need to improve my vocabulary to write better essays. My other expectation was to learn how to organize my ideas. Before writing our essays, we first make topic outlines so we know what to write in our essays. It also helps in organizing ideas. The course helped me achieve my goals in English. One of my problems is that I do not read much. In this course, we are required to read articles because we need sources to write essays.<\/p>\n
