In my writing I think I do well describing events and people, but I am not the best at creating a thesis for an essay. One way that can help me improve my weakness is reading other good thesis’s and realizing why their thesis is better than mine. Another way I can improve my thesis is by making an outline of what my essay is going to be about and then coming up with a thesis off my topic sentences. By reading other people's thesis's and making outlines before I make mine, my thesis will be a whole lot better. It will also help me make my thesis faster and more accurately.

When I em writing a essay or a report I sometimes have trouble staying on the right topic with my thesis. I have problems coming up or even writing a good thesis and when I do I have some troulde writing after it. But when I do write after my thesis I get of topic and when Im done writing, my thesis doesn't match up with my holw paper. A way I can improve my writing is reading other thesis so that I truly understand the subject. And if i ever have any problems i ca ask my teacher to explain it to me one more time.
