I. Introduction
Why this is a Nightmare for me
Every lesson is strange to me.
o Ive never encountered this when I was in high
school
Quizzes were a torment to me.
o Its really hard to answer a question you dont
even understand.
Results of the Exam
o This breaks my heart; I wish this could just be a
nightmare where I can wake up to recover.
II. Effects
Low self confidence
It makes me feel that I am ignorant.
Sleepless nights
Several times that I should be spending for sleep goes
to thinking how I can pass this subject.
Nose bleeding
One of the reasons why I am facing a lot of difficulties
in this subject is because I still have problems in the
vocabs.
 III. Solutions
Understand that Im not alone
According to the research, Filipino college students
especially those taking up Business and education has a
low proficiency in English.
Study harder
I shall not let this goes like this forever, I must do my best to
improve my proficiency.
I must do related activities even outside the class
I must read, read, and read.

Consult to my Instructor for extra help

Introduction:

Nightmare usually happens at bed during night, but not in my case, it

happens at Room 311, 7am to 8am where we are having our Study and Thinking
skills in English class. Dont get me wrong, my professor was just an amazing
teacher, I think the problem was just in me. Every lesson is strange to me I think
that I dont even encountered those lessons when I was in high school, Every
Quizzes and exams were torment to me, I cant even understand the questions
so how could I come up at the correct answer?. And the worst, the results of the
tests were a nightmare for me. This breaks my heart; I wish this is just a bad
dream where I could wake up.
