I expect to learn something new. I would like to learn something new because, it always seems like through out all of high school, I have learned stuff over and over. Like last year I had Mr. Abbarro, and he taught us the same thing we learned in English 12 A. It's not a bad thing sometimes it can be easy, but sometimes it can get boring. I'm just hoping to learn something new.
A skill that I really want to work on this quarter is improving my writing. At times my writing can be strong. Only if its a subject that I like and I know. Otherwise my writing skills are very weak. I know that I, myself needs to work on it to. This is basically my weakness in English, I have never been a good writer all of my school career.
One essay I'm very proud of is my "This I Believe essay" from last semester. I wrote about being strong can get you through anything. I believe that because I suffer from a seizure disorder and I believe that my strength has got me through everything. I thought I wrote about what I have been through really detailed and made you see that strength really helps you. This was a very important essay for me, and I really liked it. It was one of my stronger sides.
I'm excited that we get to blog for this class. Blogging seems to really open up your eyes. I'm shy at first, but I'm glad that only our teacher will get to ready it at first. That way she can work with me to improve.
I will try!!!!! I hope that your This I Believe essay can even get better. I want you to rework it and make it even stronger! I expect a high level of skill from you because I think you are very capable. Focus on organization when writing. Use an outline as a prewriting tool. The blog will help you free flow write and guide you further in your skills. Keep up the solid work.
