Dr. Peterson,
In this letter, I wish to address several key points. The topics will be; to describe the math skills I have acquired before taking pre-calculus and how these skills are helping me now. I will also discuss math skills that were lacking along my journey of the world of math. With these arguments, I will talk about the importance of achievements I have made and how I will use them in other classes as well as in my life.
Math to me is more than numbers, theories, and concepts. It’s a discipline that has many forms. Before taking pre-calculus, I took college algebra, and prior to taking that class I took the college readiness assessment. While my foundation of basic math skills is a little unpolished I enjoy learning math. I work …show more content…
However, against many odds and fears I have of math I still have the desire to learn what it takes to succeed in math. When it comes to math I have a sort of mental block. I try to relive this block different ways, mostly relaxing. I feel that I learned up to a point the it became very difficult for me to concentrate because of constant thoughts of my car accident at 8 years old. This has continued throughout my life.
I will use the skills I have learned in pre-calculus in life and in my other classes. As I have begun to appreciate mathematical applications in Art, Psychology, and Chemistry this semester. I will use the application of math principles in my life. I want to become a Pharmacist—Math and Chemistry are the foundation for this career path. With all its difficulty Math is the subject I like to learn about most and find myself thinking more of math most of my days.
Thank you, Dr. Peterson, for giving me the opportunity to express my feelings about pre-calculus with you. I enjoy your class and can tell that you are passionate about math. You are a great instructor and care about your students. What a difference it makes when you have taken that extra time with
