    I came into my first college writing class feeling prepared thanks to you and your investment in me as a student in your AP Lang class. I developed as a writer more than I ever had in your class, and it definitely helped me in my college writing class this semester.

    This third quarter of AP Language & Composition was quite similar but also different in ways compared to the previous semester. Having already experienced half a school year of the class, I was already aware of the expectations and the work requirements needed. One big difference in approach was how I brainstormed for ideas. Last semester, most of our writing was rather formulaic and didn’t rely much on creativity and chose the most convenient topic for the task. However, this semester’s focus on satirical writing was quite different in how we chose a subject and approached the satire.

  • Reflective Essay: Helping Prep

    467 Words  | 2 Pages

    Throughout my time at Fairfield Prep, I have not only grown spiritually, but I have also developed as a student becoming “intellectually competent”. This does not mean that before I entered Fairfield Prep as a freshman I was not intelligent; instead, it suggests I had not yet mastered the ability to think critically and logically. These skills were honed and improved as a result of style of learning Fairfield Prep has offered me over the last four years. Rather than simply lecturing to their students, teachers at Prep provide their students with the information needed and allow for them to self-discover before interjecting and teaching about the subject at hand. This allows for the students to think critically and draw parallels between the various facts.

    271 Words  | 2 Pages

    Going into my senior year, I believed the year would be really easygoing and I’d be able to slack off a lot, even though I did have calculus. AP Calculus was taught by Ms. Karcher, who, by the end of the year, came to become one of my favorite teachers and even helped influence my career in secondary math. I should have known that the class would be a lot of work, especially when we had to finish a math workbook by the end of the summer before the class even started, but I brushed it off. The first part of the class really got to me, because she assigned so much work, but by the end of the year, I knew she just wanted us to do well on the end of the year exams.

    Being a teacher is a journey that has much to do with learning about yourself and being aware that what happens in your classroom reflects only on how are you with yourself. Teachers are not conscious that they project into students, and that affects how things go in the classroom. I believe the first characteristic of a good teacher is that he/ she is always willing to analyze his/her teaching performance. Second the teacher is humble enough to receive input about the development and application of techniques, learning from it and improving.
