INtroduction
As in a Junior in this class I currently have a 91%(A). During this class, we are expected a lot. From taking notes, asking Mr.Pappas for help and our opinions, getting quizes every week and to always participate in class. We always get homework every day. In general to catch up in IXL(a math course online) and to prepare for the following quiz. Not to brag or anything but, I've always been good in Math. I tend to turn in my work on time and do things correctly. However, I do tend to bring myself down and not feel good enough to proceed into the next course/level. Mr. Pappas requested me to join the advance group and to push myself to get a better grade. He stated, "Brayan, I wonder whether you are holding yourself back by not pursuing grade level work, which would earn you potentially an A in the class. Please consider joining the group. R/S, Mr. Pappas." With this said, the only support I will need in this class is advice and help from the teacher when I'm struggling.Overall, its a great class with high expectations.
What is your goal for this class and how will you maintain that?
In the beginning of the school year, I started off on the wrong foot. As I mentioned before, I'm really good at Math but sometimes you get stuck on a problem or section that you have no clue what to do.In addition, just the way Mr.Pappas was teaching at first ,was totally a new way of learning.However, as the school continues he has manage to change and improve his way of teaching. As for my goal on this class, the only goal I plan to achieve is to get an A and improve my skills in Math. With the help of Mr.Pappas and his tutoring I know I will achieve this goal with no problem. In addition, his pressure and motivation will keep me up from not lowering my letter grade.

QUIZ EXPONENTS PRE-CALCULUS
As to the other test, this is a quiz based on last years Math. It contains stuff from last years and what we will be learning this year. However, this is pre-algebra.
2016 Math section
My grade currently in this class is a 89%. I in some way enjoy this class. However, I do find the class a bit hard due to the work they give us. Yet, I still manage to get it done. Other than that, this class is great. The teacher, Mr.Pappas, is nice and friendly and he's always there when we need him. That's pretty much the only thing I need as support. His assistance when I need it. My strength on this class is helping those who need help. On the other hand, my weaknesses are that I talk in class when we are doing assignment.
What I have been doing recently
This is the most recent test result that I've got.
Math (2016-2017)
In the beginning of the year I was struggling and till this day continue to struggle on this class. I find this class really hard and confusing since we had a variety of teachers coming and leaving from this class. I honestly don't get the material because I have a really difficult time teaching myself certain things. As I mentioned before, I even have a hard time memorizing the string to my guitar class. On the college level, I'm not sure what I want to do yet as my career however, I do know that I need a lot of help from my teachers on understanding the class and finishing the assignments that I need to do.
GOALS FOR THIS CLASS
I have many goals for this class but for now, I just really want to understand the material and get a passing grade. That's really the only goal I have for this class.
