    As a young child in elementary school, I struggled in the regular classes of language arts and math, and this caused my teachers to put me into Special Education. I recall hearing the regular students call me “stupid” all the time behind my back. When I had my regular classes in Social Studies or Science none of the other students wanted to be my partner in the group projects. I felt like an outcast, and my self-confidence was exceedingly low. However, I knew that I was not the smartest kid, but I was a hard worker. I begged my mom to help me convince the teachers to allow me to to join the regular classes in the 5th grade. Fortunately, my teachers agreed, and in my regular language arts class I was motivated to prove to my teachers, my classmates,

  • Analysis Of Telephone Call By Dorothy Parker

    1171 Words  | 3 Pages

    Although the only opinion of the narrator in “Telephone Call” is presented by the narrator herself, much can be told about her character from what she says and how she holds her monologue. As a person, she seems to be very high-strung, using repetition like “Please God. Please, please, please,” (15) and other variations of that phrase often throughout the story. Her word choice is very desperate, and repeating the phrase over and over creates a feeling of anxiety that the reader associates with her personality, not necessarily her situation. Overall, the narrator’s concern seems petty, but she makes it out to be a very tense, urgent problem. Saying “[a]nd he said he’d telephone me. He didn’t have to say that. I didn’t ask him to,” (15) paints her as insecure. She overanalyzes every interaction and second guesses
