Essay paragraph

English has always been my worst subject. I tend to do very well on the state English tests, but that is because the format for the questions make the test very easy. English is hard for me because of the specific terms that need to be learned and how exactly to use them. The rules that apply to these terms make absolutely no sense to me and as a result, I do not like the subject. Pair this distaste with the fact that I find writing boring and it creates a large amount of frustration. For example, when I look at sentences I can tell which one is correct because it sounds the best and makes sense. However, when I must find specifics such as the types of clauses, I have no clue what part to look for in the sentence. It is these of questions and terms I must know that cause me to do poorly, and it is probably the most rage-inducing thing about school.
