| after being in ap euro for a few weeks now, im finally realizing what everyones always buzzing about with the "work" and whatnot. the class itself is hard to explain. its not that its all that much, since we rarely have homework, but the amount of reading is monstrous. i've also found that this class, very much like the college class that it is, is very "teach yourself". when you come into class, you're expected to have a complete understanding of the topic and very minimal confusion, and even then when we come into class, the discussions are so off topic and random that its almost like if i werent there it wouldnt make a difference. perlman has her favorites and im afraid im not one of them- i dont get hearts on my papers and she ignores my comments and when i raise my hand, she never calls on me. shes also really old school and traditional, and coming from mrs kuklis's classroom environment, its almost, shocking. all this said, and the fact that we have our first test on friday, i started to get concerned that this class wouldnt be as easy as i expected it to be. i decided that i needed to go to mrs. kuklis and talk to her about the course. it was really good to talk to her again, and really makes u appreciate what an amazing teacher she is. and just to think, at the very beginning of last year, i hated her...hah, i was so stupid. i really appreciate being able to have had her now, because now i finally realize how uncommon teachers like her are. she gave me that extra boost of confidence that i needed and reminded me that shes always there if i need help. "if you're my student once, you're always my student". that made me so happy when she told me that. its good to have a teacher thats so supportive of you, it helps. kuks is the best :) |
