Reflection March 11,2021

 For class today we mainly had a talk about whether paying for a college education was worth it or not. My opinion on the matter is somewhere in the middle, but since I need to pick a side I was on the opposing side. To be quite honest I can see why people would be on the opposing side. College tuition in the U.S has been rising while income for most has been only steadily increasing. Not to mention how other tuitions around the world where the majority of students and their family can afford college since the tuition is lower than the U.S.  As we went over the claims of each position my opinion didn't change at all but it did raise important evidence as to why higher education is important. This might just be me looking at this way too hard since I try to keep up to date on economic and political standpoints. Overall today was a good day, informative and simple.😄

    Hey Linda :) I agree with you. I've watched videos of so many teenagers talk about the costs of college outside the U.S., and it just makes me think about how the U.S. education system isn't...good. Fortunately though, college isn't the only way to a successful future.

Reflection May 20,2021 ( 5 DAYS OF SCHOOL LEFT)

Today was a nice somewhat awkward day for me ,but neither the less quite funny. We didn’t have a bell ringer today and we started to talk about the AP LANG test. Honestly a few flashbacks came into mind and I started to think about what I wrote and I could remember majority of things , surprisingly. After that we had to get started on our final exam project. I kinda embarrassed myself a little since for some reason I couldn’t say repetitiveness, but it made laugh so it was good. Mr. Rease is honestly such a good teacher and especially for the short time we had him and for being a online class, I might have to write a speech for him. Mr. Rease gave us all the possible resources to finish our project which was pretty nice. I honestly completed all the previous either in class or after class so I can get it done with.We got to see ones blog from when Mr.Rease first started out and it was pretty nice. I believe the former student of Mr.Rease was called Luis and I went to go check out his b

Today was honestly a pretty good day and for some reason it doesn’t feel like Monday to me. Today we basically started talking about our career paths and what we want to do. For me I said international Econ and pre law. I always felt passionate about these routs since its connected to my daily life. I’ve only changed my career choice twice and that’s when I wanted to be a nurse or oncologist, but I get overall emotional and cry very easily when it comes to heavy hearted situations and I do feel passionate about the job and how it can help others. The other choice I had was law and international Econ which is a great fit for me since it’s still helping people ,but in a different way, when it comes to law it just find it fascinating and I truly enjoy talking and debating about it. Since I was the daughter of immigrant parents immigration and politics has been in my life every since I could comprehend, since I was a little girl and could translate I would help my parents with papers and o

FINAL BLOG POST

Mr.Rease asked us to write a post about giving incoming AP Language and Composition students advice. Hmmm honestly I guess first start of come in with a good and positive mindset since it’s essential to want or at-least have a need to learn. For me it was imperative that I gave it all my attention ,because of virtual I get distracted easily so I definitely had to make an effort for that. If a student will be taking it virtually I think they should probably try to keep their focus on hearing, for me it was a struggle trying to make my attention span last so long ,but I managed.Probably practicing time management and fast writing skills. I feel like students should work on time management when it comes to their writing so they can read over any mistakes they have made. Another piece of advice would be to ask questions when needed or ask the teacher for advice. Mr. Rease honestly did a good job with that and made sure he answered everyone’s questions. GOOD LUCK TO THE NEXT STUDENTS IF THE
