I was given an award for being able to pronounce my words clearly and having the best reading abilities in the class. -
I was in an English museum with my friends and we were given a task to write about a passage we read. The tourist was very impressed with my answer and used it as an example for the rest of the classes. -
In the second grade, I began to start reading higher knowledge books such as The Magic Tree House. At that time, the librarian recommended those books to fourth graders but was highly impressed with my confidence to unlock new vocabulary -
My humanities teacher in the fifth grade told me I wrote an amazing essay and wanted me to read it aloud to the classroom. I remember many of my classmates being fascinated by my writing skills because they all cheered for me when I finished speaking. -
In the seventh grade, I was tasked to create a poem from scratch. When I finished it and gave it to my teacher, she was amazed and not only shared it to the class, but she entered me into a poem contest. Although I never won, it gave me an inner passion that I still hold onto today. -
As a freshman, I was clueless on how to write a well formatted essay. My English teacher taught me how to create an established essay from the beginning to the end. By the end of the year, I was impressed by myself about how I felt fluent in writing. -
I began to challenge my reading abilities because I didn't work on them as well as my writing. As a sophomore, I joined the English Honors class and was given very difficult reading passages every night. By the end of the year, I was able to read some of the most popular passages such as Sleepy Hollow, The Raven, The Fall of the House of Usher, and more. -
As of now, I am challenging myself to the two AP classes that offer the most amount of essays throughout the year to see what I am capable of. As I take these classes, I write to myself a little everyday to prepare myself for the rigorous testing at the end of the year.
