Conclusion

English 470 has been a wonderful opportunity to experience and has help me improve and develop as a professional about to go out into the real world. This class, without even realizing, has allowed me to achieve the six course learning outcomes by completing the different labs, assignment, and lecture hours we have endured throughout the semester. Prior to English 470, I was unsure about writing to authoritative figures but now I have the confidence to do so. I have also grown in my ability to use proper grammar, block formatting, and punctuation. This class has been incredibly helpful because it has prepared me for my future career as a speech-language pathologist. As a speech-language pathologist, I will use these skills when having to make a brochure to bring awareness to down syndrome or autism. I will also use these unique techniques when writing a formal report to the insurance company on why it is important for a child to have a specific type of Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) device. These are all examples of why this class has been and will be beneficial to me as a speech language pathologist. I am excited to utilize the skill I have learned in English 470 and to keep using them in the professional word. I am incredibly thankful for the opportunity I was given to learn more about conducting professional documents and I want to give a big thank you to my peers but especially to my professor.
