As the holiday season approaches and my exams are literally right around the corner, it is time once again to reflect on my English class experience for the past months.
Greatest Success
One of my greatest successes included in class discussions and my picture article this quarter. In discussions, I was able to convey the ideas of Persepolis well and share an interesting point of view.
For my article, I reflected on the day the US Seals killed Osama Bin Laden, and the reaction of the crowd gathered at the World Trade Center. It was well written, thoughtful, and concise. I learned a lot from the experience of writing an article that focused only on a single photo.
Biggest Struggle
My biggest struggle in class this quarter was timing. Between a long vacation back in November and balancing catch up work in three honors and one AP course, I had way too much on my plate the second half of the quarter.
What Must Be Improved
I could improve by learning to be a bit more efficient in the way I work. I will learn to schedule my work out to pace myself, especially when it comes to Membean, that way I am not doing vocab work the week of the check.
How This Helps
If I do this, it will help in other classes, not just in English. Even more importantly than improving my grades, it will lower my stress level, thus giving me more motivation and helping me overall.
