English

Hello Everyone and welcome, to my blog.
Well a few days ago Me and my friend were thinking about English class and how miserable they can make reading. Right Now we are reading Uncle Tom's Cabin and our english teacher, is beating the crap out of it and making us not enjoy the book because we have to write essays,impressin journals,tests,vocabulary, and so on. She wants us to actually get stuff from this novel, but truly we can't because we are studying for pointless tests and essays. i do undersatnd some of the stuff like vocanbulary because then you can understand what you are actually reading, and also dicussing chapters, but our impressions, totally useless. When you read something, you have impressions of stuff, but you don't need to write them down, its not like you don't know what you are thinking and have to write it down cause you can't think.

There is no way you can learn or enjoy yourself when the literature is beaten into your head, and then squeazed back out on paper to take a test. There are many fundamental things about learning English, but seriously, there is serious problems with people who decide to do this to kids. They excpect us to learn, but how can we if we can't focus on one thing.
