Thank Your for a Wonderful Term

It has been a long time since I’ve sat in a classroom eager to learn. After taking a couple years off from school, to travel around New Zealand, Australia, and the South Pacific Islands, I came home not knowing what to do next. Eventually, my dream of being a kindergarten teacher and an interest to learn became stronger. I was nervous to go back to school, assuming that I had forgotten what I had already learned, but encouraged myself to do what it takes to achieve my goals.

The first day of spring term was nerve-racking. I had all these assumptions of what ENG 101 would be like, comparing it to my experience in AP ENG of my senior year. However, I was pleasantly surprised. The intimate class size, the upbeat instructor, and overall ambiance of the campus relieved my anxieties. The attention I received in this class, and the environment of my fellow peers eager to learn, has helped my determination to learn as much as possible.

I am thoroughly grateful to all who have aided in making this English class a great experience. I learned basic skills of writing that has been paid little attention to previously, and forms of arguments that I am more aware of in everyday life. The excitement of learning and being able to appreciate good writing reaffirms my decision for coming back to school. My positive experience in this classroom has been a wonderful start to achieve my goals.

Thank you.
