How can I be a better writer than before? That was my first question I had this semester. I didn’t feel that I can compare my writing with my other classmates who are all their native language is English, or at less lived their life speaking English. There was so much pressure that made me want to be not good enough, but also better than other students. Wherefore, the first time I met Mrs. Ivy, she was nice enough to made me excited about this class. In addition, I was late a whole week, but she gave me an opportunity to make up for the assignments that I missed. Thanks to this good start and motivation from my teacher, this was one of the best things that developed me as a university student and helped me to improve my language significantly. This is my second semester at collage, so I used to the places of classes and buildings in the university. However, the English …show more content…
I wasn’t good with presentations, and I didn’t like to be in front of people and talking about something I'm not interesting on. However, because I'm Information System major I have to do a lot of presentations, which is making me nervous about it. This class give me a chance to overcome my fear and do a presentation with a group, which made it easier for me. Even when I didn’t do the best of what I could while I presented my part of the group presentation, I was happy to finish it and knowing that I can do more with my other classes. The best things in this class were the quizzes and the free writings. I didn’t get a lot of grades in the quizzes, but I love when Mrs. Ivy say we have quiz because they give me a chance to imagine the correct answers. I usually didn’t get them right, it was only once that I got full mark. Also, the free writing give me the ability to write fast what she asked me to write or what I think. Furthermore, it was really funny and I enjoy writing things quickly and with my hands in a pencil Instead of writing in the

    Accelerated English 4 has been a class that has been one of my best English classes. The class taught me many new techniques along with improving my skills that I already knew, though not all were improved. My strength in vocabulary was still as high as it was while my ability to transition had improved quite well, though my ability to create a well styled paper was still suffering. When Accelerated English 4 started there was no excitement about the papers I would have to write.…

    When asked to write about and describe myself I often have to stop and ask myself how would someone who knows me, describe me to someone who doesn’t know me at all. I feel unique would probably be the most fitting adjective for describing Robert Yamane. I enjoy being challenged and never walk away from a problem that I know I can solve. Puzzles are great examples, but more importantly I want to be challenged in the classroom. Which is a huge reason why I want to attend Punahou.…

    Taking this course on Comic & Co. made me think differently about comics. I always thought comic is boring and all you see is pictures and less words, it’s more like a picture book. But so far in this course I learned so much about comics. The picture in the books does most of the storytelling. It explains why there is not a lot of words in comic books.…

    At the beginning of the semester I was worried because I though this class was going to be really hard for me. The first days of class I was okay,but when I find out that I had to do an introductory speech I panicked. I am a very shy person and I don 't talk a lot, I know that this can be bad, but it is difficult for me to change. FYE made the right choice for me, with a group everything seems better. Throughout the semester there has been challenges for me in this class…

    Throughout the year, as a class we have been given many different challenges in either the form of an essay, speech, or group presentation. The final assignment given to us was a group project presentation. From growing up in an age filled with technology, I have come to love projects that revolve around making some form of a PowerPoint presentation. This PowerPoint though, was both difficult and interesting for the reasons of being assigned group members not of my own choosing, learning to listen to others ideas which can help me to learn something new, and using former knowledge while working together to create a clean, in depth, and well prepared presentation. With working in groups of students whom I have known since I was young but…
