Writing Sample
Writing Analysis
The picture that Yunior choose for our interview was one that in essence is the quintessential American Saturday. It shows a multitude of people barbecuing hamburgers and hot dogs, playing football. When analyzing Yunior's writing sample one can tell right away that he has a very clear understanding of the English language. Throughout his writing sample he uses intelligent vocabulary such as representative of, principal ideas, requisites and other articulate phrases that express his ideals of American culture in a very intelligent manner. The only mistakes Yunior makes in his writing is grammatical, such as the simple misuse of words such as "on" instead of 'in", or "for" instead of " in", as well as slight misspelling such as "persuit' instead of "pursuit." Overall Yunior's writing sample is articulate and representative of someone who has an extremely good grasp on the language. He has proven that he has a clear understanding of tenses and sentence structure and is an extremely confident writer. As well as a wide vocabulary, that can be measured at a collegiate level. The only recommendations I have to assist in remedying his small errors in writing would be to practice more in his day to day life with his speech, at to allot more time when writing, so that he may process his ideas fully before putting them to paper.
