Reading and writing are a major part of my life and has changed the way I view things now. In my family, my two sisters and my mother read as well as write. I follow in their footsteps. My mother would sit me down everyday and read with me so I could improve. Reading was a bonding thing for my mother and I. My mother and I even joined a book club together when I was younger. We read a new book every month and it was a splendid way to higher our vocabulary. Reading and writing are almost like a keep safe for me. If anything was ever wrong with me, all I had to do to calm down was pull out a book or my journal. Reading and writing are very important to me. I read almost everyday now all because of my mother. Reading and writing are two important
roles in my life. They are two life skills that can be improved everyday with a little bit of work. Reading and writing have changed my life in a extremely positive way. I am now an excellent reader because of how much I have read when I was younger. Reading is important in my life because I have learned how to be free when I read. I have learned how to see a situation in more than one point of view. I have learned how to read different moods and tones in a book. Because I read often I have learned so many new skills. Writing is also important in my life because it helps me express my deeper feelings I can not say. Writing allows me to show who I really am without actually saying a word out loud. Writing throughout the years has helped me improve my writing skills now. My writing skills have changed enormously. Reading and writing are very important for my education and my life as a whole.
My parents have always stressed the importance of reading. Throughout my whole life, they have motivated me to read and they have encouraged me to find books that I find interesting to read. Because of their encouragement, I am an avid reader today. When I was a child, just starting to enjoy reading I liked to read books that were fiction. Some of my favorite books to read as a child are series that I still love today and I think I still have every book in each series stored in my attic. They are The Boxcar Children, Junie B. Jones, and The Magic Tree House.
For me, reading as well as rereading, books such as Junie B Jones, Berenstain Bears, or the Harry Potter series, impacted my life immensely by increasing my vocabulary, developing my vital language skills and many more developmental skills. In the past, being literate meant beating kids in how many books I could read and being able to comprehend difficult vocabulary, but now being literate in the adult world means developing new and creative ideas or being able to prosper an opinion based on facts and previous knowledge.
As a child, I have always been fond of reading books. My mother would read to me every single night before I went to bed and sometimes throughout the day. It was the most exciting time of the day when she would open the cabinet, with what seemed to be hundreds of feet tall, of endless books to choose from. When she read to me, I wanted nothing more than to read just like her. Together, we worked on reading every chance we had. Eventually I got better at reading alone and could not put a book down. Instead of playing outside with my brothers during the Summer, I would stay inside in complete silence and just read. I remember going to the library with my mom on Saturdays, and staying the entire day. I looked forward to it each and every week.
Growing up in working class family, my mom worked all the time for the living of a big family with five kids, and my dad was in re-education camp because of his association with U.S. government before 1975. My grandma was my primary guardian. “Go to study, go to read your books, read anything you like to read if you want to have a better life,” my grandma kept bouncing that phrase in my childhood. It becomes the sole rule for me to have better future. I become curious and wonder what the inside of reading and write can make my life difference. In my old days, there was no computer, no laptop, no phone…etc, to play or to spend time with, other than books. I had no other choice than read, and read and tended to dig deep in science books, math books, and chemistry books. I tended to interest in how the problem was solved. I even used my saving money to buy my own math books to read more problems and how to solve the problem. I remembered that I ended up reading the same math book as my seventh grade teacher. She used to throw the challenge questions on every quiz to pick out the brighter student. There was few students know how to solve those challenge questions. I was the one who fortunately nailed it every single time. My passion and my logic for reading and writing came to me through that experience, and also through my grandma and my mom who plant the seed in me, who want their kids to have happy and better life than they were. In my own dictionary, literacy is not just the ability to read and write, it is a strong foundation to build up the knowledge to have better life, to become who I am today.
Reading and writing have been a practiced skill in my household and ever since my childhood I have spent hours working
I used to have to take these tests about all the books I would read in school and I would always ace them all. I knew that reading was something I liked because I was always very intrigued by it. Also in middle school I found my true writing voice. I remember taking a creative writing class in six grade and I was always the student who wrote more than what was expected for my writing assignments. I would write stories about things such as my friends and the experiences that I had in school. Sometimes I would even write my own plays and in my plays the characters would be people in family and people from school. I would always try to make the plot super interesting in my plays. One time I wrote a play about my brothers and me traveling to space and finding aliens. Overall, I really fell in love with literacy throughout my middle school years because I was able to read books more at an advance level and I also was able to write more intense stories. Literacy has been a positive influence in my life all throughout my school
Writing a college essay can be hard. and writing a good unique college essay can be even harder. Writing a good distinct essay can be hard. It’s hard because writing is not my best subject. I usually always go to my peers to help me get ideas I search the web for ideas. The most important thing to do differently is the way you go about writing your paper when writing it. When you give students an essay topic you never receive the same written essay. You always get a different written and typed essay, some are funny, some are boring, some might make you cry, and so on. I think that the way someone is pursuing the subject is important. Not all topics are going to be the best topics to write about but if you can take a boring topic and make it interesting you 've already won the reader in my opinion.
Throughout my life, reading and writing were a positive thing because of the support from the people around. I was never really the confident or extroverted type of person back in the day. This then caused me to be anxious when I read or be doubtful of what I wrote. I can still remember breaking balls of sweats and tensing up whenever I had to read something aloud in elementary. It was a pretty big social problem for me but I can also recall many times where I was laughing and having fun while doing something with reading or writing with my mother. Although there have been many things that affected me so far in my literary journey, my mother has been the most supportive and impactful person to me by reading short stories, going to the library, and giving me writing prompts. One of the activities I liked to do before I fell asleep was to read.
Reading was never something I fussed about growing up. As a child, I loved genres of realistic fiction. I was hooked on The New Adventures of Mary Kate and Ashley, Goosebumps, The Amazing Days of Abby Hayes, Judy Moody, and especially, Zoobooks and Highlights magazines. My mother was always ready to help build my reading and writing skills. She took me to the library constantly to feed my passion for books and knowledge. I loved exploring the shelfs, organizing the books, and filling up my library cart. I tried keeping a diary in elementary school to keep track of my outings with my parents and grandparents to museums, zoos, movies, and libraries. This flash of writing enthusiasm was spun from books I read in the 4th and 5th grade that were
There are many different types of events that shape who we are as writers and how we view literacy. Reading and writing is viewed as a chore among a number of people because of bad experiences they had when they were first starting to read and write. In my experience reading and writing has always been something to rejoice, not renounce, and that is because I have had positive memories about them.
Benjamin Franklin once said "either write something worth reading or do something worth writing". Reading and writing is the core base to every person’s education and that 's why it has made such a big influence on me. Reading and writing has played a very important role in my life, because it always makes me strive for more. I use writing and reading more than I think I do. Early on in my life I always tried my best when it came to reading. During my teenage years in high school I always struggled with writing but by the end I was able to do things I never imagined I could. Today, writing is still a big influence but due to some mistakes I 'm not where I should be, but it isn’t necessarily a bad thing.. I would not be where I am today with my reading and writing skills if it hadn 't have been for my 11th grade English teacher. I also wouldn 't have the interests that I have today because some of them branch off of what I 've written, or read about during my academic career.
Writing has always been one of the things that I’m passionate about. Whenever I have something on my mind, I would jot it down or type it in my notes. No matter how small or pathetic it seems, I would always write it down, because you never know when you’re going to go back to it and create something grand, out of inspiration. People would think that a person like me would write down poems or novel ideas. That’s completely true, but I also write down recipes, grocery lists, hate lists and literally anything that comes to my mind. I’m the type of person that does not like to miss anything, forget anything and likes to include everything. People would say I’m a perfectionist or a control freak and as much as I would hate to admit that, it is true. While these traits of mine might hinder my writing process, during this school year I learned how to embrace them.
What makes a writer efficient in the academic setting? A skilled writer is someone who is able to properly use academic components in the correct situation and when needed. Without the use of these components writers are left with unpolished pieces of work and set forth on a downward spiral in their writing.

Reading is an important way of communicating. Reading develops your imagination, boosts your vocabulary, improves empathy and helps you towards reaching wanted education. Reading literature is especially very important for the foundation of life. Throughout the Literature, we can see the whole world from a different perspective. Literature teaches the reader about life. In each story the reader will experience his or her own journey through which he can become more thoughtful and more understanding about themselves.
In the development of my literary experiences, my mother took it upon herself to teach me. I can remember my mother reading to me till the time I was twelve years old. She also taught me to read and write. My mother reading to me as a child impacted me the most because I now love to read. Reading to me as a child exposed me to a new world of unending possibilities. Now, as far as writing goes, I do not remember doing a great amount of it. The most I remember is writing some at school and then I occasionally would write in a journal. I greatly admire my family because of the time they took to ensure my literary education and I appreciate their encouragement.
