My process of becoming a reader and a writer has come over far. With growing up malnourished and also being adopted, for my first 3 years I wasn’t taught anything. After I was adopted my parents first took care of my medical problems. After that then they started with my education. Around 4 or 5 are when I had to start learning it all. It was difficult for me because I was slower. I never did like reading and writing was also a challenge. I was put in to a private school because there I could get the help and need I needed. This is where MIs Blair came into the picture. She would meet with me once or twice a week and she would teach me the basics and helped me with my reading and writing. She would do different activates with me. At first I hated it and thought I wasn’t fair because I had to skip some classes. I had to go to her every year till the end of my jr high year. I was so happy to be done. I was excited to finally not have to skip class to go to her. Now looking back I have realized how much she has influenced me. I took her for granted a lot of the times and I wish I hadn’t. If it wasn’t for her time and effort I would be struggling even more. I have come along with and I am truly thankful for her. I am thankful for a lot of my teachers for putting time and effort for helping me get my HS diploma. I still am not a big reader but I love writing.

For example, did you compose at the keyboard, did you write lots of notes to yourself, did you pre-write or outline, did you write in small chunks of time or sit down and produce an entire draft at one sitting? . for this paper I wrote many paragraphs and just kept deleting. for some reason I hate trouble with this paper. It was harder for me to do than the rest.
