English 1102 Reflection

It was the beginning of the 2012 fall semester when I attended my first English class in over ten years. I enrolled at Georgia Perimeter College with the plans to get a degree in dental hygiene.

I came from a broken home, and higher education was never discussed when I was a child. As an adult I see myself as an achiever, far too motivated and curious about the world…

English 111 Reflection

When I signed up to take English 111, I only took the class for the dual enrollment credits.
