The difficulties I have with MLA are in remembering the specifics of certain aspects of it. Most of the time, I have the most trouble with formatting the pages correctly. The process of setting up the margins of the pages can be difficult and tedious at times. I also try to manage the line breaks on pages to maintain the correct MLA format, and that process takes time. Properly setting up sources is something I struggle with as well. The sources in general have to be maintained and referenced a certain way, but I sometimes get them mixed up when checking the different types of sources and their correct format. Having gotten more used to it, I have less problems with it, but a single mistake can still ruin my Works Cited page. Quoting can be confusing sometimes as well, when trying to cite them properly depending on what information I have. Generally, the MLA format can be tricky to perfect, but gets easier with practice.
It "gets easier with practice." Yes, it does. Practice is the only way to learn it.
