The author writes about people who are nervous about communicating with her, saying “I wish only for them to be comfortable, not agitated or guilty. I want them to perceive me as more skilled, more normal, more approachable than they first thought.” Think about a time in your life when you wanted someone to see you as “more skilled, more normal, more approachable than they first thought.” Now, in a personal narrative of 300 words or more, write how you would describe your personal experience to make that person more comfortable.
