Please use some of the following prompts to reflect upon your semester in English 131.. This reflection letter pushes you to look further at your writing process, your success as a student, and your immediate goals at HFC. This letter should be two full typed pages. Do not respond in bullet point format, rather weave your responses into a fluid reflection piece. You should not try to respond to all of the bullet points, but rather select the points that are important to you. As always, I also encourage you to discuss or reflect upon elements not suggested within the prompts.
