Introduction to Our Blogs

     I am a dedicated English student.  I love to read, write, and be a part of discussions in class.  If you are following my blog, you will see that I don't write very much unless the assignment is long.  I don't like to add a lot of "fluff" in what I write; my writing is straight to the point.  I want to give the online world a new perspective on literary works.  When I write, I don't want to give typical, expected answers.  I want to make people think about things in a different way.
     The meaning of English Class is learning.  One is taught how to read better, write better, and expand their vocabulary.  One is also taught how to be more grammatically correct when writing.  English is a four-year requirement for college bound students because, without good English skills, one will have a much harder time getting a good job, not to mention getting into a good college.  A person has to have a good grasp on the English language and how to use it before they try to enter the world of careers.
     By excelling in English, I will definitely grow academically.  I will be able to write good, grammatically correct papers, in high school and college.  It will help me in all of my classes, and after school, it will help me in the work force.  Excelling in English, I will also grow personally.  I will be able to read books with a better understanding of what goes on.  I love to read, so this will be a particularly useful skill later on through school, and even after. 
     English is a great all-around subject that is important for everyone to be a part of.  There are so many practical uses for English unlike some things learned in school, such as Greek mythology.  I think everyone should strive to do well in English because it will be a useful tool for the rest of their lives.
