Response to John's Prompt #1

After I read John’s response to prompt one I decided to write a response to this because his use of sensory detail caught my attention and I was interested in the rest of his response. He begins his response describing the building and how he is nervous to enter this building which he has no clue how his experience could be.

I like his style of response because I felt as if I were walking through these hallways with the state of mind like his, which was nervous and out of place. I can relate because on my first day of tutoring I felt the same way because I didn’t know what to expect. The neighborhood around the school wasn’t very welcoming and my positive thoughts of this experience were going down the drain. I begun to think many negative thoughts, but then thought many students prior to me went through the same thing. He also didn’t have much experience dealing with children. I thought this was going to be a problem but after the first day was completed I enjoyed dealing with them because they are open-minding and interested in learning. Although we had different subjects to tutor and grade levels both experiences, I felt, were similar.
