Without going into a steady rant, I’d like to simply explain a couple things. Just to make sure we’re on the same page. Sound fair enough to you, sir?
As you said, some people love English, others don’t. It’s not a judgment of the person’s character, just their general preference of learning. I understand I need to develop my writing skills with some major fine-tuning. That’s where an experienced adult such as you comes into play.
When I write, I don’t lie. I don’t hide or shield my opinions, whether they are positive or negative. I voice them just as any person should and be justified to do so. Perhaps I need to limit my views?
Mr. Masaoka, I’m so very aware that you are not my therapist. Thank so much for stating the obvious. When commenting on my work, I would greatly appreciate it if you treated every word with the respect you would request of me. If you would prefer that I took your assignments and treated them with pure distaste, I most certainly will. Please, sir, consider taking your words and somehow twist them into critique I can work from. I aim to improve my skills as a writer so that in my future, I may profit from my abilities. I do your assignments as you request: with effort. Next time I suppose I could keep my problems to myself. I know how to sound like a textbook. For the next poem or memoir I’m assigned, I’ll keep my subject like all the rest. I’ll speak of cuddly puppies and fresh daises.
Keep in mind that is not my reality. My daisies are wilted, if you must know, sir. I can safely consider that poor excuse of writing another’s. It’s just another paper for you to scan for spelling errors and hurriedly scribble “Nice Work” at the top in red ink.

Forgive me for attempting to become a minority.

Best Wishes,
Sarah
