 I believe that the biggest tip I would give a new coming English students is to connect with the teacher as much as possible. In all honesty English class, in general, can be pretty boring, and students will lose interest easily. Losing their interest leads to students failing and we don't want that. So the best thing they can do is connect with the teacher and get comfortable with them. So for example occasionally talk to them about random things, even if it doesn't have to do with the subjec. Another big tip would have to be to get as much one-on-one teaching as you can. One-on-one teaching with a student is personally one of the best ways of teaching as it helps students really understand whatever the subject is.

 So after so much stress, I am finally passing all my classes, though they could be better, at least I'm passing. I honestly hate the school board for the lack of actual help they did for the students, and all this semester proved to me is how greedy they can get. They could have lowered the great average for struggling students, but instead, they did nothing.

 I feel like the main thing English classes should change are the prompts and examples that they use/ show. Many of the prompts we read are very uninteresting, I feel like letting the class choose books to study in the class would go a long way.

Today felt like a Friday as I didn't really do anything and two of my teachers were out today. Today also just proved to me how ready I am to leave this school for the summer. I really need this break because the amount of stress from this semester was astounding.

 Besides school, I learned today that the gas lining was hacked and now there is a shortage. All day I was talking to people about it, and even though it doesn't affect me I still think it's interesting. It's also interesting because today was very boring so it stood out.

 So close to the summer break, this school year has felt like the longest year in my life. Today, however, was really boring I think that I've just reached my peak when it comes to learning this semester. I also talked to some teachers about the last week and even they don't know! This school board just doesn't even know what they're even doing.

 Finally, it's Friday, I don't know why but this week was so draining. Probably because of the AP exam, but I can't wait to get home and sleep.

 I really like the way the weeks are set up now with Wednesdays being off, it's really starting to make Tuesdays feel like Fridays too. Today was ordinary besides me getting yelled at for climbing stairs which I thought was funny.

The day was good because the weather was probably my favorite type of weather which is rainy for some reason. Luckily when I walk home it wasn't raining so I didn't get wet.
