Like in the vacuum of space I have sucked into English. At first I went to the class with a weight in my chest. Then it was as if the light bulb in my head suddenly turned on. I realized that the class helped with the others. Thanks to this class an A is for me, because I produce quality work, participate in class, and I have progressed well.
You might say I only deserve a B, maybe because I’m not neat. It could also be because I didn’t start off as well. However I have been progressing and writing better.
I produce quality work that is better than before. My blog posts have gotten better. I think through what I am going to write before I write it. I can persuade people that I am right.
I participate in all conversations. I raise my hand a lot! You tell me to put my hand down all of the time. I always get the last word in when we get into groups. I also study and analyze the pictures when we have to.
I have progressed well since the beginning of the semester. I was horrible at writing until I came to this class. When I try my hardest I can actually write neatly. I can actually appreciate poems. I understand and can analyze poems as well.
I deserve an A in this class because I have progressed well, I participate in everything, and I produce quality work. I have showed that I have improved in many ways many times.
