However, life at junior high changes a lot. Firstly, there are more subjects in junior high school than in elementprimary school. The junior high school curriculum is even more challenging. Secondly, the teaching style is also different from that in primary schools. Sample For me, my problem is that I'm afraid I can’t adapt to the school life.That’s because I know little about the teachers and students. But I remember what you said to me. When I am at school, everyone is kind to me and teachers are ready to help us. So I forget about my anxiety very soon. In order to have a meaningful and colorful school life,I am going to make some new friend because friends can help you out when you meet problems.In the future, perhaps I will encounter many challenges, but I believe I will overcome them.
