This semester of dual English, the class went more into depth about Shakespeare. I learned about the background of William Shakespeare’s life and his family life too, but most importantly I learned how to understand Shakespeare. Before this semester, I would have trouble understanding Shakespeare and, I would always have to read Cliff Notes about the scenes to understand what was going on during the play. Now that Mrs. Waits gave the class multiple plays from Shakespeare, it has given me a chance to comprehend Shakespeare’s words better.
I also achieved my personal goals in English 1302. One goal that I valued the most was finishing out the last semester with a higher average grade than I did in the first semester. I knew to achieve this goal I had to switch the way I did things. I started balancing my time better and not doing the assignments last minute. Not doing the assignments last minute helped me take my time on the assignments and receive a better grade. Another goal that I have achieved was getting a passing grade on all essays that were assigned in the last semester. In response to that goal, I started asking my peers for more feedback on my essays to make sure the essay could reach its full potential. After asking my peers for their feedback, I would use Grammarly to make sure all my simple mistakes were fixed.
The things I did well this semester was managing my time on the assignments and reach more out to my peers. As I started asking my peers for help, I realized how my essays started improving more and more. I also started learning more techniques on how to write my essays faster, while maintaining a clear and easy to read essay from my peers. The most important thing that I did well, in my opinion, was getting my work done early. Getting my work done early gave me more time to correct my work before turning it in. But the thing I could’ve done better this last semester was doing more of the daily work. This semester I started to be more laid back and slack on the daily work, although not doing the daily work didn’t affect my grade heavily it still affected my grade. Lastly, I would like to thank my professor, Mrs. Waits, for being very lenient and helpful towards the class.
