Good Morning Mr. Sale,
I know that you are working to find a good niche for me, but I thought it might be useful to put in writing some ways that I think can serve the students of Swain County.
AP USH. I would like to continue teaching AP for a few more years until I can mentor someone to take over the program. I believe that AP provides a valuable opportunity for our students to learn academic skills that will help them succeed in college, but more importantly, I think it helps them hone their “grit” skills. They often realize they can achieve more than they ever thought possible.
Academically Gifted Advisor/Coordinator. Having someone dedicated to serving these kids, whom many say can take of themselves, is essential to helping our
In the AP essay, Kevin has a well-developed paper consisting of sentence variety, proper identification of rhetorical strategies, analysis, and numerous supporting examples. Kevin displays sentence variety as he introduces his paper. He never starts his sentences with the same words. His use of sentence variety makes his paper smoother to read, and displays a more advanced writing style. Additionally, Kevin follows the prompt’s directions and “effectively analyzes the rhetorical strategies Adams uses to advise her son,” (College Board).
Frank Rich maintains a critical tone throughout the entire article. His use of short sentences such as “Actually, no. People don’t change” and the word “minions” to describe Hilary Clinton in the first section shows his discontent with the candidate. Rich continues his critical tone as he discusses the other candidates. The use of words such as “bigoted”, “cowering”, and “off-the-wall” show that Rich is angry at the majority of the candidates.
In the intercalary chapter number 25, Steinbeck shows the decay of morals and also physical decay in the chapter. He contrasts land that is used naturally for its nutrients, and land used, or in Steinbeck’s eyes, wasted for profits. The chapter has some apocalyptic overtones throughout. Steinbeck uses vivid imagery and harsh statements to convey his message. The chapter seems to show how there are consequences for interrupting the lands life force to line ones pockets.
Exposition Its starts off in a small American town, introducing the Kellers and their neighbors. Starting with eerie destruction of Larry's tree, and the surprise appearance of Ann, creating a tense environment. Conflict, rising action, complication Chris reveals his intentions with Ann to his father. But if Kate and Joe give their blessing, they're admitting that Larry's really gone. Chris's announcement begins to make the old conflicts come to the surface.
On October 15th, 2016 Austin Community College’s Department of History and the Diversion of Social and Behavioral Sciences created a history symposium. This symposium consisted of 2 speakers, Theresa Jach and Kemp Dixon, who spoke about convict leasing and the law east of the Pecos. Throughout Theresa’s speech she showed us the similarities between convict leasing and slavery in the early years of American history. She reminds us that while slavery has been abolished, the enslavement of individuals who have been convicted of a crime is still legal and allows the state to have the opportunity to make a profit off of keeping correction facilities full. As time progressed, Theresa informs us of the multitude of punishments that slaves had
A rhetorical analysis of: “For many restaurant workers, fair conditions not on menu”, an editorial published in February, 2014 by The Boston Globe, reveals the author’s use of classic rhetorical appeals to be heavily supported with facts, including focused logos arguments. “For many restaurant workers, fair conditions not on menu” is a Boston Globe editorial published in February 2014 by author/editor Kathleen Kingsbury. Kingsbury is a Pulitzer prize winning author and is currently the deputy managing editor (The Boston Globe). “For many restaurant workers, fair conditions not on menu” aims to inform the reader of the hardships that minimum wage restaurant workers in the United States have to face and steps that could be taken to solve these issues. The article focuses in on the wage gap,
Out of all my papers, my best grade was on the rhetorical analysis paper. It was nearly perfect. From Professor Short’s feedback on m previous paper, I fixed my work cited page and in text cites. During peer review, my peer told me to go into a bit more detail. I did not take her advice and left my paragraphs as detailed as they were.
The Rhetorical Analysis Paper was a challenging paper to write for me, but I believe that it was only difficult because this is my first paper that I have ever written of this style. Despite this I think that I did a good job on this paper; I tried to follow the rubric as I wrote. I believe that I clearly articulated the two aspects of the advertisement that I focused on and how they worked together to convey the bigger picture; however, I did still have some concerns. My biggest concern initially was how to develop a good thesis for this genre of writing since I have never written on this topic before, but I believe I got that issue straightened out. Other issues were deciding how to introduce and conclude papers in this genre, but again by
A major theme in A&P is personal freedom. Throughout the story Updike uses metaphor for all elements in the story to implies the theme. At the beginning of the story, Sammy uses sarcastic tone to describe the customers as “sheep” and “houseslaves” which implies he is different from them in mindset. The way how Sammy talks about others shows his intellectual mind. He is not same as Stokesie who wants to be a manager one day.
Taylor Scuorzo d Rhetorical Analysis 3/20/23 Rhetorical Analysis Doing benevolent and selfless things for others can occasionally lead to adverse results. In his enlightening and illuminating commencement address given at Lesley University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, on May 19, 2018, Jason Reynolds emotionally persuades and informs the graduates at the college through the use of anecdotes and metaphors to show that ignoring the significant problems of the world will not help us fix them. To strengthen his speech, Reynolds uses past personal experiences and the comparison of objects to others to help prove the theme portrayed throughout the speech.
Past leaders such as Andrew Jackson, Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, and Marc Antony are evidence that society does not reward morality and good character in leadership. Society is drawn to leaders that have good rhetoric, propaganda, and charismatic personalities, and society supports them despite their immorality. Society is concerned about stability more than the morality of their leaders and will support immoral leaders in times of crisis to provide stability. In history there have been multiple leaders that have used rhetoric, propaganda and charismatic personalities to gain power, despite their morals.
The desire for equal opportunities fuels my ambitions to be a school counselor. Despite all of our differences as people in America, what we all have in common is the fact that schooling of some sort is a requirement. Working as a school counselor will provide me with the opportunity to be an ally to students, while on the frontlines to combating issues that adversely impact
Pathos would not be the most adequate for "Hello". Pathos is focused on emotions, however, "hello" does not reach most to emotions. It may be seen as a respectful act to some individuals. The elders were raised to say "hello" to any individual that they saw or passed along their destination. For instence, in the latin culture it is of good manners to greet any one with "hello", but it would be considered disrespectful if one just strolled right by without greeting.
During the course of my fieldwork I worked directly to the Co-Directors of the Puente Program at East Los Angeles College (ELAC) as their Counseling Assistant. Through my position I was able to assist the Puente Counselor by meeting with students in the program, primarily students
It is my greatest pleasure to apply for the Adjunct Professor position in the Education Department of Lebanon Valley College. As a member of the Hershey community and a teacher in the school down the street, Hershey Primary School, I have had uncountable interactions with your strong and supportive, student teachers, professors, students, and facilities.

During my teaching experience, I have designed and taught units of study that went beyond the Pennsylvania State Standards, as well as my school district curriculum. I fully incorporated technology-oriented instruction, including interactive digital presentations, individualized lessons, and multiple web-based programs.
