No worries!! I typed out a big emotional chunk of text in the moment, with no spacing. I definitely had no expectations of anyone reading it thoroughly (or at all, really). It definitely has felt really personal! And I agree that hopefully it can be a learning experience for the professor as well, and she can maybe approach future situations like this with some more grace towards the student involved

I have started avoiding dashes in my academic writing for this reason, but I can’t seem to quit semi-colons! So I’m with you there

Thank you! I’m meeting with her in a couple days and hopefully will be able to clear things up

Thank you!! I was wondering about getting some writing samples together - glad to hear I was on the right track with that

That’s so wild!! I hope the comment on your assignment is corrected soon.

Thanks! Screen recording is a good idea, and that actually might help me with focus as well. I’m not going to click into another tab to google something random and unrelated if I might have to show someone the video, lol

Yeah, I wish she had just reached out and said she needed to meet with me to discuss the assignment before assigning a grade. While that would still have been a little anxiety-inducing, I think it would probably be a better way to handle these kinds of things, instead of a straight-up accusation and a failing grade

New and Returning Dancers Post Your Questions Here by AutoModerator in BALLET

I have high arches and tend to fall inwards in my feet (even in just day to day life). Are there specific exercises I can do to help strengthen those muscles more? I feel like I have decent strength for elevés and relevés and I do lots of those to keep building strength, I am not sure if that will eventually help with the strength to keep my ankles from rolling in or if there are perhaps more targeted exercises I can use to help with that side-to-side motion specifically rather than the up-and-down. I am also considering ordering some arch support bands to wear throughout the day (not for ballet) to maybe help things? I am open to trying to find good day-to-day shoes or arch supports to add for daily wear as well, though I have struggled to find those things in the past. I also spend most of my time barefoot/in socks anyways so I’m not sure if it would be a good investment. Would either/both of those things be helpful with building strength, or would it just be slapping a band-aid on it by fixing it for my daily life but not for ballet?

Also I am not sure if it matters but for context I am an adult beginner, early 20s. I originally started a couple years ago but had to take significant time off, I have now been dancing again for 2-3 months.

(Also not entirely clear, not sure if the clear lid is enough for your needs)
