ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

“I never did anything alone. Whatever was accomplished in this country was accomplished collectively.”

Golda Meir

First of all It would be very unfear If I start to post my final works by only giving credit to myself and without mentioning all the persons that help me to developed, correct, polish and improve on my work. 

To start with I would like to thanks to all my classmates whom together we made the elaboration of many peer reviews to help each other on different aspects such as grammar, topic sentence, thesis statement, and many other things that we discuss in class. To my group for the first Project: Melanie, Ivonne and Sean; I have no words to thank them for the magnificent mutual respect that we show to each other on the different meeting that we had. With the combination of the four of us, we made possible the elaboration of a high quality project, we learn to work together, to not only hear others ideas but to also accept them, and specially to understand each other strengths in order to distribute the amount of work in a efficient way. To James and Alon, my peers for the second project, especially from them I learn a lot regarding grammar mistakes. Since James is an excellent writer, he helped me to understand how to localize when there is a sentence transition missing and the connection that I had to develop between one paragraph and another.

            To my college writing professor Benjamin Doyle I had no words no thank him for the amazing work he did with my classmates and me. From hard lectures, readings, grammar, punctuation, to his personal experiences; all this journey in order to achieve the goal of being better writers. The patience, dedication and way of teaching and speaking that he had with each one of us is something to admire. I wanted to thank him specially for always being so able ask any type of question, and always for sending his feedback and comments on EACH WORD AND LINE of our drafts. Professor: You make me understand something very important for life that I will never forget: I should never be afraid of expressing out loud my opinion, since is mine and it could never be wrong. Each of us has a different way of thinking and seeing the world, and as long as we support with good and valid argument our points of views, we’ll do fine!

          Last but not least I cannot stop mentioning the writing center. I really appreciate the help that the writing center was able to give me when I need it. They not only revised me my essays and help me to correct my grammar mistakes, but besides that they also teach me amazing lessons and tricks that would serve me a lot in my professional future.

I would like to finish my acknowledgement with a significant phrase that Helen Keller once said:

“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.”
