How I Have Changed
How time flies！Three years has quickly passed. And I have changed a lot during these years.
On the one hand,I didn’t use to do well in learning English at first. When my English teacher learnt about that, she encouraged me to study and she promised to help me . She taught me how to memorize new words and to read as much as possible. Soon with my teacher’s help I made great progress. I got to become interested in English. Now I always get good grades in English exams.
On the other hand, in my first year ,I was weakto do much exercise. But with the help of my teachers and classmates,I do exercise whenever I am free.And I can run very fast and I’m also good at playing basketball like other boys.
Thanks to the middle school life, I have changed so much! Thanks to my teachers and classmates, I have learnt so much! Never will I forget the valuable middle school life!
