Reflection On My Writing Center Experience.

On my first visit to the writing center my tutor was this man named Renato, he helped me a lot and he also gave me different ways to add more details to my essay. But last time when I went to the writing center again my tutor was "mmmm" I do not even remember the name of the guy, the only thing I remember about him was the way he treated me. At the beginning he introduce himself, and we went to sit in front of the desk. I showed my rough paper and I also showed him the name of the vlog that I choose. He did not even looked at them and he gave me this paper that he used before with other three students, I did not like that because I know that we have the same English class but my vlog was not the same as the others. In my point of view I really did not received any help from my tutor. So I decided to do what my group told me to do. I remember them telling me about my vlog, most of them told me about my details. That I have to add more of them but the thing was that I did not know what detail to add. So one of them told me to described the background like to say in what place they were at a room, park , school, thing like that. and they recomend me to use my five senses to be more specific with all the details. lt also helped me a lot what my teacher said about how she want us to make our paragraphs. So I looked at my vlog and started writing every little detail that appeard in the first minute that include all the backgroung, sounds and facial expressions of the girls who were in the vlog. When I was in the middle of my essay It was like more easyier so I had a great time explaining all the details. It was like reading a book to a blind people and you have to be very specific in all the details of the background and sounds well everything. This was my great experience with the writing center .
