Education Narrative

The conventions of an education narrative is being able to evoke emotions, visual images and communicate ideas in a descriptive way that would draw the audience’s attention. For instance, writing an anecdotal that relates back to your own experience which in this case with education or language has impacted you as an individual so the targeted audience can feel that similar connection, making the writing piece stronger. When describing is very crucial to be aware of the genre you are trying to portray and the use of language which can be helpful to look at other authors such as Amy Tan and Jose Olivarez. Thus, one good place I can start on my own education narrative is listing some ideas of what I would like to inform the audience about my own experience with language or education just as Olivarez that he was able to take a different approach on the purpose of writing poems. He wanted people to feel identified and have a feel of “some comfort” and inspire those to write more poems. Also, figure out a way I can structure my narrative in a way that can be easy for the audience to follow. One of my concerns for this narrative is being able to be descriptive enough that the reader could illustrate the scenes in their minds and capture their attention throughout the text. One of the profound experiences that I would like to share is my experience with English as an immigrant and some of the struggles I had in school and frustration that it made me feel to the point that I would burst in tears. However, this is just a basic idea of what I want to talk about!
