Workshop

I had my workshop last Friday and it was pretty helpful. I could see and understand all my mistakes that I hadn't seen before. Moreover, some new ideas came to my mind during that time, I had been spending hours just reviewing my essay without any usefulness though. The best point of the workshop is that we all had a chance to take a look at our papers from another fresh view. And we know that a fresh view can always find a lot of mistakes that looked right before.

One of this mistakes that became visible after workshop is that I didn't have an actual conclusion. Quite a serious thing, right? But if I didn't have a chance to review my paper together with the class in such a casual situation (I mean a meeting in Starbucks), I would submit my essay just the way it was.

Another workshop’s advantage is that we had an opportunity to check the essays of other students of the class. Only after reading critically those papers I could really judge mine, what instantly made me to rewrite some weak and inappropriate parts of the essay.

In other words, everybody needs at least one of this kind of meeting while working on his writing assignment. And it doesn’t matter how much time he spends on his essay, there are always mistakes that are hiding from him and can be easily determined during a joint workshop.
