What is a writing? (Woo Hyun Kim)

Before I write about "What is a writing", I have to be honest that I didn't do a lot of things in the English 2F class. Actually, last semester was meaningful to me in that I could learn basic of writing skills from English 1F class.
Professor said to us, 2F class continues strategies introduced in 1F class, and students learn to read more closely and think critically by situating texts in broader symbolic, historic, and socio-cultural contexts. So I had to concentrate on this part and make it. By the way, I think that the most important thing that I have to focus on is "Writing" during whole school life.
One day, one of my American friend asked me one question. Woo! "What is your main problems of writing essay?". When I got that question, I just answered "I'm having a hard time to fix grammer wrong and make a well organized outline". And my friend said to me "Those are main problems to every international students, because they just are learning Enlgish in the America as a seocond launguage. And time goes by, if you feel get used of them, then you will have another problems haha". At that time I didn't get what he said to me.

When I had a problem to deal with my research paper, I realized that I got another problems as my friend said. Grammer wrong, making a well organized were not main problems at all at that time. My another problem was "What is a writing". Literally, my problem was how can I start to write my essay. During 6months, I never try to write another extra essays, and to read another papers which are related with my essay. Through this problem, I felt two things about writing.

First of all, writing requires a lot of practices. Although for just assignments we can make it without them, for whole school life these are really helpful in that we can get used to deal with a lot of papers.

Secondly, writing is a teacher that make us realize what is the Enlgish. If I can make a proverb I want to make this sentence. "One time of writing is more precious than ten times of speaking to learn English". This really makes sense. For example, every international students has a experience that they can't write some words on the paper which are really common words on ordinary conversations at least one time. This phenomenon seems like writing is a important process in that remind our words. And this is connected with our Enlglish level. If we write paper more and more, it will be helpful to speak English and know what is the English at the same time.
