well i came to US 4 years ago and learned english perfectly in 1 year
i have to accent and no one even knows that i wasnt born here
so i turned in this essay, a rough draft, and as she was going over it, she asked me if english was me second language
so i said yes, and she told me she could tell and then listed all of the errors i've made.
she said this while other students were listening, and i know i should have stood up for myself, but i just said okay
what angers me is the fact that i can write better than half the class. i mean after all, i'm going to attend a private school, so i took an entrance exam which was looking at a poem and analyzing the poem in an assay
i was excepted into english honors
so if what she is sayig is true, that i don't write well and c onfuse verb tences, why the hell would i get into honors in a PRIVATE school
i am going to tell my mom, but what is your advice as to how i should handle this
thank youuuuz
