Letter of Introduction

This summer I spent most of my time hanging out with my friends. At the beginning of the summer we all went to Maine together and then we did it again right before school started. There are five people in my family. I have a little brother named Ryan and an older sister named Megan. Last year school was okay for me, but I hope this year will be better. Last year I was apart of women’s choir and student counsel, and I’ll probably do those again this year. I usually spend most of my free time with my friends. They would probably describe me as being loud, helpful, and trustworthy. Some things that are important to me are my dogs, school, friends, and being happy. My goals in life are to go to a good college and maybe be a veterinarian. 

I learn best when I am comfortable in class, and I’m very motivated to do my best by my parents. My favorite assigned read was “The Help”. I liked this book because of how strong the characters were and how intriguing the book was. Outside of English my main strength is that I always try my best. My biggest weaknesses are test and quiz taking, because I always panic and get a brain block while taking them. I think that listening and participating are very important qualities of an effective discussion. I also think that these are very important qualities to have during class. Being easy to take to is an effective quality for a teacher to have.

My goals/hopes for English this year are to get a better grade then I did last year, and to participate more. These can be achieved by studying extra hard and by trying to raise my hand more when I know the answer. My strengths in English last year were probably the projects we did or some of the writing. The area I most need to improve in in English is reading more carefully. I hope to gain a deeper understanding of things this year. Some fears/anxieties/concerns I have about English at this time is keeping up with my organization and being a more active member of the class.


Something that you should know about me to help me grow and learn this year is that sometimes it takes me a few times to understand things well. There are also times where I’ll need an assignment to be further explained to me to really get it, but if so I’ll be sure to come in and talk to you. A random fact about me is that I have pet dogs, chickens, and ducks.
