  2. Good Morning Maria,

    I'm Tri Ho, I finally can post a comment to you. As you told us in the class; reading is very important part for college student! I really agree with that. But I still have a problem while I'm reading. It's about the speed and also I got stuck when I fill in the blank of the sentences with vocabulary activity part. Could you give me some advice so I can improve my reading skill better? Thank you Maria. I'll see you in class next week.

    Sincerely,
    Tri Ho

  7. Hi Maria,
    I am doing chapter 8-10 study guide questions for Kite Runner,until now I am realize it really a beautiful novel and a heartbreaking story of an unlikely friendship between the two boys ( Amir and Hassan ), also the fragile relationship between Baba and Amir.
    See you in class.

    Your student,
    Peter Nguyen
