For many people, High school is a time of discovery,it is a time to discover their passion and interests, and also discover great friends. In my case, one subject stood out among the rest, making learning more enjoyable and fun for me. In this post, i would be sharing my personal experience with you about my favorite subject back in high school, the challenges I faced, why i enjoyed this subject so much, and the role of my favorite subject in my present-day life.

My favorite subject back in high school was English Language. It was the realm of words, essays, stories, pronunciations, and imagination that enchanted me, This subject helped me to learn how to speak and write with english in the right way, it help sparked my creativity and helped me read more books. It wasn't about just acquiring knowledge; it was about deepening my understanding of the subject and improving my ability to speak well and also to win competitions and awards. My reason for loving this subject was because of the teacher who taught it. His name was Mr Samuel. Mr Samuel taught english so passionately that i dreamt of growing uo to be like him. Not only that, he showed keen interest to all his students and always made sure that they understood what he taught. This was especially what endeared me to him and what he taught.

Marks And Hardship
While I found English Language to be my sanctuary of knowledge and passion, it didn't always guarantee too grades. There were numerous moments I had to struggle, especially when we delved into pronunciations of words as my Yorubas accent then was really affecting my ability to pronounce English words correctly. Not only that, i had to also struggle with writing standard essays and articles for publication. Yet, these hardships were part of the learning process. They taught me valueable lessons like always being open minded when learning no matter how well I understand the subject, perseverance and also critical thinking. I am glad that i had surmounted these challenges.

Other Subjects I Loved
Although English language was my most loved subject, i had a soft spot for history and geography. History allowed me to journey through time and understand the events that shaped our world. Geography help me to understand our planet more and more. It helped me understand why natural phenomenon like Volcanic eruption do occur and their usefulness to our planet. These subjects offered diverse and enriching high school experience.
