Throughout the school year, I faced challenges like understanding and reading passages while trying to stay focused during long texts. Sometimes I felt underwhelmed when asked to analyze passages. However, these challenges helped me grow by pushing me to have better grades and habits. I learned that I am more resilient than I believed because I didn't give up, even when the work was tough. Over time, I became more confident in my reading skills and proud of the progress I made during this school year.
