ASSIGNMENT: Write a short narrative about your favorite subject in school.
Marina86 [1]

A short narrative about my favorite subject in school is English.

English is my own favorite subject. Due to my frivolous understanding of the subject, I have consistently received high grades. It makes learning simple, and I consistently achieve high marks. I enjoy other topics as well, but English is without a doubt my favorite. It never gets old to me, and I'm constantly eager to learn more about it.

There are several factors that contribute to my enjoyment of English studies. The primary benefit is that it improves my reading abilities. My mother has read to me every night since I was a toddler. I started reading and listening to stories often as a result.

English helps me improve my reading skills, which benefits me in other disciplines as well. Reading helps me better understand the ideas.
