JOURNAL 1.1

I took algebra 1 with ms. diaz freshman year. Sophmore year I took geometry with ms. daniels. I like math when I understand the work, otherwise I hate it and it is mostly because I don't get the work. And when i get confused with math and don't understand it, it makes me want to just give up and forget about it. I am not the fastest learner well, on some things. I am usually the student after school 5 days a week trying to understand what we learned in class and sometimes even then I still don't get it. Teachers usually explain things out the long way for me, I don't like short cuts in math. Unless I understand who an answer was reached I don't like short cuts with math. This year in algebra 2 I hope to become better at understanding the usage of short cuts. I hated algebra 1 freshman year. Although it was fun, I still didn't like it. As far as geometry goes, i loved that and yes i struggled with the work alot, going after school with ms. daniels helped me out ALOT!
