My preferred subjects in school were English and Literature. English is a subject that helped bring out my strengths as a writer, which is my chosen profession. The other important part of English is articulating yourself through the written word fluently and coherently. That is what makes it the most enjoyable subject in school.
English is the building block of all other topics because without your understanding of English, how could you read that math problem and understand how to solve it? All subjects require knowledge of the English language.
Literature is also an enjoyable subject in school, and I remember reading individual books and being enthusiastic about them. I loved “Tom Sawyer,” “Lord of the Flies,” “1984,” and “Tuesdays with Morrie.” Once again, without a good understanding of the English language, you could not appreciate a good book!
