English review

Hi. This will be my last school post ever. Which to me feels very scary as it feels like not that long ago I got this blog and was forced to post. I will admit, posting on my blog hasn't been very fun, but I have made it interesting enough and hopefully, it has been interesting to read. 

Now on to why I am actually posting today, A review and evaluation of my work in English this year. Personally, I think I have done quite well in English this year, even though I had a few bumps at the start of the year. I have passed all my assessments and for me, that is good enough. I have enjoyed being in this class, and we have had some interesting conversations. I think I have my Ue literacy at this current point in time. If not, I'm going to get it shortly with my writing portfolio. That is if I pass but I better. The pieces of work I wrote are very good and I'm quite proud of them (even if Mrs Truter made me shorten them) 

Some advice I have for students taking level 3 English next year is to put your head down and work, and to ask questions. Don't sit there till the last minute because you don't know what you are doing. The longer you wait, the more annoyed the teacher will be and the more stressed you will be. It's very easy to screw yourself over, and I would highly recommend you don't. Year 13 is stressful enough without having to worry about classwork. 

I will miss this school and this class, but I'm excited about what the future will bring. 

Thank you for being a part of my learning journey through the years.

My thoughts on English

 The first post of 2023 let's go! (I love how I write most of my posts as if people outside of my teachers actually read them haha)

This post is about what I think about English and what I'm like (I think. I wasn't paying 100% attention) (Sorry ms)  

I think English is interesting, however, I struggle to dive deeper into my ideas. I can say "This is the main point" But I struggle to come up with why it's important. I also struggle with putting my ideas into words that make sense. I may know what I want to say, just not how to say it. I like doing creative work/writing and to be completely honest, it's one of the only things I really enjoy about English. I also stick to my ideas a lot and can be slightly stubborn. One of my other favorite topics is novel study. Mainly because I get to read a book.

Something about me is that I like to listen to music while I do my work. I find it helps me to drown out what others are saying and the tapping of keys. My Dad says I'm addicted, but eh, I just like music over chatter. 

(I have been given more information on what I'm meant to be writing. Back on topic for us then =D ))

My expectations for this course are to struggle with all the essays I have to write, and hopefully, end up with a merit at the end of it. 
My understanding of English is that it's teaching you how to think critically and how to write reports and essays efficiently. 

Behold the classic example of I have the ideas but I can't expand on them =D

((This was meant to be posted on the 9th of Feb but I ran out of time and kept forgetting to post it. But better late than never I guess haha))
