Summer Readiness is an eight week opportunity for first-time college
students. It's designed to help students acquire better reading and
writing skills.
So, why Summer Readiness?
I’ve
been asked that a few times. Before graduation, I wanted to do
something over the summer. I don’t know how to drive or have a job.
I
didn’t want to waste time finding one.
Since day one, it was a new
experience to me. I’ve never done anything like this. Most of my school
life, I stayed home and I wasn't involved in many things. I
met new friends who’ve put me into a comfort zone. I'd list them, but
it's about one third of the class. I don’t have to worry about being shy
anymore. I already knew it was going to be boring to a certain degree. The
homework load wasn’t a surprised. It doesn't compare to what I had
during my junior and senior year.
I’ll brag about it on Facebook, but
the homework keeps me occupied.
If I didn’t
come to SRP, I’d probably be sleeping right now. Most of my friends have
nothing to do. By coming to SRP, I’m learning new techniques that help
me strengthen reading and writing skills. I just want to get a head
start on school, knowing what to expect.
It is clear from your blog and your entries and your thoughts, AND being in SRP....YOU are a somebody!
