Why do you think that experienced writers revise their essay better?
Beside the fact that they are obviously way more experienced than a freshmen writer, the experienced writers knew the strategies to better revise and make their essays better. They have a better grip of what it is to revise an essay and because of this, they call it rewriting and revising. Freshmen writers on the other hand, didn’t have a very good idea of revision. They don’t feel comfortable with calling it the terms that experienced writers call it so they make their own terms like scratch out and do over again, redoing, or marking out. They don’t have too much experience when it comes to revising their papers so they call it those things. They said that those terms were used only by their teachers so they felt that they had to do so. Experienced writers are more on the level of the teachers and they have that level of intellectual when it comes to revising their papers. They know exactly what they are doing, and therefore, they can use proper revision when needed. They have the thought process of a teacher and therefore, they can revise their paper as so. They have a perspective that they freshmen students only thought their teachers had.
