GETTING TO KNOW ME:

Yee Yang En

Register Number 30
Class 305'13

  1. The most interesting thing that I did over the holidays was going on a family trip to Taiwan. I did a lot of shopping there and of course gained a lot of weight...
  2. I like music. All kinds of music, pop and classical, and I like to listen to music in my free time. Favourite food, pizza, chips, every single type of junk food you can think of. I am an only child, and I am very short.
  3. I am not that interested in Mathematics, but I fare well in this subject. Good enough, at least I think so...yep.
  4. Last year's math was quite a bit interesting, I like geometry topics the most, and the teacher managed to make the class more fun. And I didn't like indices.
  5. I prefer to be given more practice worksheets than fill-in-the-blank notes on the topics that are taught, because then I can know whether I truly understand the topic and can solve most of the problems. Practice makes perfect!
  6. I think I have gotten worse in Mathematics recently, probably because new concepts are taught and I take a longer time to learn new formulas and other things.
  7. My personal strengths: I am just thankful that I am not too bad in Mathematics.
  8. Areas of improvement: I could just learn to concentrate better.
  9. I hope that my results for Mathematics will not drop further this year.
  10. I hope the teacher can go through the questions in the worksheets and explain clearly so I know where I went wrong in questions I didn't get right answers to.
