A Fresh Beginning

8th August 2023

A brand new start for a brand new grade 11 student! My second year in AEP after a very long (and well-deserved) summer break. I'm already looking forward to the Wordle brain teasers in the morning! Albeit we only have one session a week which is really unfortunate. After Miss had briefed us on the general basis of what our lessons will hold, I learned that this year is going to be a lot more rigorous and comprehensive in work. I assumed this was because our time in AEP per week was cut short. Despite that, I still can't wait to resume the more in-depth English lessons -- especially since we'll learn more about advanced vocabulary in the following semesters!

Additionally, since my other classmates don't have ESL anymore, our numbers in AEP have practically doubled this year! It's a lot more crowded (and noisy), and most of the seats are taken now. But even with all the new people in the class, I'm still looking forward to the lessons as they might bring new opportunities to work in groups (compared to last year -- which was mostly individual work).

Other than that, there isn't much else to say (otherwise I'd be repeating what most AEP students already know hehe). More students, more work, more puzzles, more vocabulary, and above all, more fun! I'm nevertheless excited to begin my second year in AEP. Can't wait to see what our future lessons hold!

PS: Enjoy this little guy while you're here. :]
