Getting An "A" On Your First Paper

What must you do on the first paper to get an A?
     First thing make sure you follow the requirements. Which include MLA format and composing 1,200-1,500 words. First find a significant past event that changed your outlook on life that you would be willing to share with others. Use a style of writing that embodies a great personal tone that you can connect with your audience.
     When reciting your story, include a lot of details, support, observations, and connections.  Be direct with your examples and make yourself clear. Stay on topic and try not to ramble about your topic. This will set a comfortable mood with the reader.
Make you first essay as truthful as possible. Don’t be afraid to use evidence, but don’t let documented evidence overshadow your personal experience. Try not to have trepidations of using humor and your personality into your paper.
      If you would like you can put your essay in chronologic order, this helps to keep the readers focus. Also if you have a lot of different events during different times it help the reader keep track. Over all make sure that it is NOT PLAGERIZED!!

  1. I like the fact that you emphasize details and tone, and appealing to your audience. It can be hard to write about something personal, without making it seem like too much information. And rambling on really doesn't help anyone either! ;)
