Student of the Week: Jiyeon Shin, Grade 7

Student of the Week

Each week of summer, MEK Review teachers nominate a student to be awarded Student of the Week. This student is chosen due to his or her amazing performance, inspiring improvement, or great attitude in our Summer courses.

For Week 6, our teachers nominated Jiyeon Shin from our Nonfiction Reading 7 class!

“It is time to recognize another fine student that I have, Jiyeon Shin. Our Non Fiction Reading course requires both thorough research skills and the presentational skills that we have worked on all summer. Throughout the summer, JiYeon has demonstrated her formidable attention to detail and research skills, as well as how she can present and argue a topic. But it is notable that she has taken this course virtually, adding the challenge of doing all that is expected in a classroom while juggling the necessary technology. Jiyeon is certainly a student who deserves to be acknowledged.”

~Sandra Van Dyke, Nonfiction Reading 7
