Growing up education was very difficult. Elementary school is supposed to be the foundation of your eduction for a lot of students, but for me that wasn’t the case. The third grade was the start of my journey with my medical problem. the end of third grade I had my first surgery on both of my legs. Then every grade after I have had surgery until I was a senior in high school. But I believe in elementary school I was self taught in a way. My school wasn’t a handicap school, and they never once gave me home schooling.

Thank the gods I had a younger sister in the same school that would bring me my school work and my home work. Mondays she would bring me the work for the week and on Friday she would take it back to school. but I felt like I was behind from school.

I would like to learn more about short stories. But I am a manager so I would like to learn more ways on expanding my writing vocabulary and writing types. I write emails to corporate and to other stores. So I would like to learn how to write a little better than what I’m use too.

I haven’t taken an English class since spring term 2019. I had an English professor and she was the worst. There was a language barrier but whenever there was confusion about an assignment nobody could speak to her because she was so hostile. So after that experience I haven’t taken an English class since then. I was hesitant about taking an English class especially an online class.
