By the time I got to high school I didn’t really read much at all. Readings would get assigned and I would just let the book collect dust or just read the SparkNotes to get by in the class. Once I reached my senior year, I was able to choose my English class. I noticed that there was a class with the title Sports Heroes. This class immediately called my name. Sports was always something I could relate to and I figured that if I took this class then I would be able to understand the characters situations and relate to them. The class was also with one of my favorite teachers so that was a bonus. I ended up doing the best I had ever done in English. I never missed a reading assignment, I got 100’s on all the reading quizzes and I even got an A on the final paper. This taught me many things. First, I knew that I was capable of doing all the work in any English class and that I needed to take this mindset into my future classes. It also reminded me that if I were to find something that I liked reading then I would be successful. I am glad I took that class because from then on, I tried to put that same effort in all my classes, and it helped me a ton.
Work from the greatest to ever do it
