Write about the things that I enjoyed the class.

Being in Mr. Martinez English III honors class has been a great experience for me. I recalled me on the first day of school walking into Mr. Martinez at first I thought that he was an intimidating teacher. just his demeanor was scary but at the first I thought that he was a cute guy. I somewhat had an crush on Mr. Martinez. But that soon ended when he began lecturing in his classroom procedures and his power point presentation. In my opinion I think Martinez taught in a college level, in think beginning of the year i admired him as teacher and as man. When ever he gave a lecture or a PowerPoint presentation it will make you think out of the box. I remember when the time Martinez was giving a lecture on art and he was tying to get everyone to the concept on the form of the act, and I felt so proud of myself when i was the only one to the get concept. Ever since that day Martinez made me feel that I'm really a smart person.


Next in the middle of the school year I was beginning to feel that Martinez was beginning to lose his mojo in my opinion the class was not taking him serious. And I thought that he was beginning to act like us. And whenever he would begin to lecture I was becoming frustrating because of the class not becoming serious about his work. Another thing that frustrates me is when he would give us work and he would not collect the work. So we would do work sometime and keep them and keep them and end up not turning the assignments. But my overall review i think that he is a great teacher with a "master" degree LOL!!!!!! : )
