Final Post (Late)


This semester was a difficult one for. I didn’t think I was going to have that much trouble in this class, but I was wrong. Honestly I’ve never really been that good at English. After freshman year, it just got more and more difficult for to hold onto a decent grade. I think the problem was the tests. I’ve always had trouble on tests and those reading and vocabulary tests really dropped my grade in the beginning of the school year. Then I realized that the vocabulary quizzes can be easy if I try a little harder. It worked! With the help of my mom, I aced my last two quizzes. The vocabulary quizzes are my favorite part of this class now because they help my grade a lot. Also, I love how you extended the time to get ready for the quiz, so I can study longer.

But there are also things that I REALLY need to improve in this class, such as my writing skills. Obviously, I am not the best at writing essays, so my scores are usually a little low. I did start going to tutoring and received extra assistance on my last essay, and because of that, I scored better than any other essay I’ve written. I do plan to continue asking for extra help when I need it. Next semester, I will definitely pay more attention to my work and study more on my tests.
