Hello! I’m Faysal Ratul. Welcome to my writing portfolio from my Fall 2025 semester at CCNY.

Think of this site as a map of my growth as a writer. For each major project, you can see where I started, the feedback that helped me, and where I ended up. It’s not just about the final grade—it’s about the journey of getting there.

Here’s what you’ll find:

· My Language Story: A personal essay about a moment that changed how I think about reading, writing, or speaking.
· My Synthesis Essay: A research project where I dove into different viewpoints on one topic to form my own informed argument.
· My Translation Projects: Where I took the core ideas from my essays and reimagined them as something new.

On every project page, I’ve included my first draft (the raugh, early version), my final draft (the polished result), and a note on what I learned in between. This process shows how my ideas and skills evolved over the semester.

Thanks for stopping by!
