However, when I looked back to myself and I think of an experience that about the same that I had during high school years and it reminded me lots of good time there.

During high school time, teacher often give student to work on homework and study at home is limited. Also, I always expect to do short assignment that I have been discus in class. There is no due date for incomplete or pending work. The learning materials are always expected to learn from what the teacher assigned to and the testes or exams are pretty much in the range that teacher told student to study for it. Different from that, college’s teacher use their time to teach and my assignments are done on my own time. Also, I had to responsible for my all homework without being reminded and teacher usually gives a certain day to due that assignment. If I couldn’t finished or submit it in late, I would get a zero without complained because it is totally my fault. The testes and exams are important and if I am not prepare for it well, I would fail those test easy like play a game. I am glad that I have changed my study habit so that way it would be a good practice for me in the

    Failure is an event no one wants to go through, but everyone has to go through to grow and prosper as an individual. My freshmen and sophomore year of high school is a time I experience failure.

My parents did not attend school in the United States, therefore, I did not have the support needed to transition into a different environment. Many times, I would feel very discouraged because I would not be doing well in class.…

You are also required to get help if needed in college because teachers do not approach you with the request if they think you need help. Everything you do in college is all up to you and you have to manage everything.…

    I often think about the similarities and differences from my high school experiences and my brief experience in college. I have noticed that both high school and college allows students the freedom and opportunity to choose classes pertaining to our future career. College; however, differs in that it offers a wider variety of courses for a more diverse education and unlike high school, where you are learning from a book and notes, college educates us on real world experiences. A great example would be the global cultural events where you learn about other cultures, societies, and are able to see the world from a new, fresh…

Therefore, since middle school, I’ve hate the morning when I have to wake up early for that class and do that stupid “dancing”.…

    For more than three years I've been dealing with numerous learning experiences in a lot of schools but the majority of them were extreme regrettable mistakes also I think I shouldn’t have had them and it would have been much better for me if I hadn't had them at all because I've encountered utter failure with them . In fact they were bit by bit eroding and diminishing my passion for learning English . I've been taught by these experiences momentous lessons and one of them was that the search for a transcendent level of knowledge about any matter takes more than a lifetime therefore perfection is just a fantasy of our perceptions . The appalling learning experiences have made a drastic change and impact on my learning process .…
