At the beginning, Calculus was very difficult for me. I didn't understand limits, derivatives, or integrals. The words were new, and the ideas were confusing. In class, I felt shy. I didn’t want to ask questions because I thought, “Maybe my question is stupid.” But then, I got a very bad grade on a quiz. I was sad and a little angry. I said to myself, “I want to understand this!” So, I started asking questions. At first, I asked the teacher after class. Then, I started to ask questions during class. I asked things like “Why do we do this step?”,“What happens when x goes to infinity?”,“Can you explain it again?”.I asked so many questions that my teacher smiled and said, “You really like asking questions, don’t you?” Sometimes she looked tired, but she always helped me. My classmates laughed and said, “You ask more questions than the teacher!” But asking questions helped me a lot. I started to understand the ideas. I saw how the formulas worked. Slowly, I felt better and more confident. I wasn't afraid anymore.


One day, my teacher made a small mistake on the board. She forgot a minus sign. I raised my hand and said, “Excuse me, I think there is a mistake.” She looked at the board and said, “Oh, you’re right! Good job!”. That was a great moment for me. I felt proud. I saw that I was learning. I wasn't the confused student anymore. Now, I tell my friends “If you don’t understand, ask! Don’t be scared. Ask it to me!”.


Asking questions is not bad. It is smart. It helps you learn. It helped me, and now I really like Calculus.


I asked to ai for clearify my words for more understandings.I asked what would I use instead of "blabla" word and it says a better word like "ideas for calculus". It helped to me in second paragraph. it give an advice about to me how to Show my excitement like I felt proud section. Actually I changed some section like "I am depressed about this". Because eventually it is little lesson and I definitly believe that I will going to pass this lesson. This story partly mine but it is not in calculus it is about chemistry in high school. I changed to calculus because I am more interest in calculus.

In my Algorithm and Programming class, we had a final project. I worked hard on it and finished my code. I tested it a little and saw that it worked, so I sent it to the teacher. I didnt check the code again before sending. I thought everything was okay because the program was running. But when I got my grade, I was surprised. It was lower than I expected. The teacher wrote that my code had some small mistakes. He also said that my code was hard to read and didnt use good style. I felt a little sad, but I understood that I made a mistake. I didnt review my project, and because of that, I lost points. After this, I learned something important. Now, I always review my code before I send it. I read it again, look for mistakes, and try to make it better. I fix things like variable names, comments, and long lines of code. I also ask friends to look at my code and give feedback. Their feedback helps me see things I missed. I learned that reviewing is a very important part of programming. It ...
 I want to tell you about something that happens to me at school. I have a teacher but I think he doesn’t know what is teaching.  In class, he uses slides. He reads the words on the slides. He doesn’t move much. He doesn’t use his hands to explain. His voice is always the same. It’s like he is a robot. I try to listen, but it’s hard. I look at the words, but I don’t understand them. I feel sleepy. I feel confused. I think, “What is this lesson about?” After school, I go home. I open my computer. I go to YouTube. I find videos about the same lesson. And wow! It’s different! On YouTube, the teachers are alive! They move. They smile. They use their hands. They draw pictures. They show videos. They explain things in a simple way. They use different voices. It’s interesting! I can understand! I can learn! I feel happy! Why is it so different? I think it’s because YouTube teachers use many ways to teach. They don’t just read. They show. They talk. They make it fun. I think schools c...
