Throughout this semester of English, I read a book called The Handmaid's Tale. This book opened my eyes to the possibility that the world we live in today can be completely different within a second. Margaret Atwood, the author of this eye opening book created this fictional dystopia into a reality. Although we may not believe we are falling into the same trap, we have to be prepared. English 1A with Professor King has been a great experience. I am a very shy person when it comes to other people reading my essays, but this class boosted my confidence in writing. It is also very interesting to have other students read my essay for constructive criticism. Besides those, Professor King provides detailed instructions for any assignment that we are given. In the future, I look forward to writing essays for other classes and applying the skills I developed in English 1A with Professor King. At first, I only took this class as a part of a requirement filler, but I have learned to enjoy writing and reading. After taking English 1A, I will move on to English 4, hoping the class will be as fun as this one. I will only finish up to English 4 for the rest of my time at Las Positas.
