I am interested in taking English IIA because I am a motivated and self-directed learner who wants to challenge myself, knowing that taking this class will better prepare me for success in the future. I also want to broaden my reading and writing skills and reach my goal of becoming a better writer. Finding normal English classes to be always a little to slow and unchallenging, I really enjoyed English IA along with its accelerated pace and would like to continue on to the second course in the sequence.
