Approve + ? preposition = to have a positive opinion of something or someone

The new semester has finally started, and I feel motivated to do my best. During the last semester, there were times when I was not as focused as I should have been. Because of that, I learned that I need to manage my time better and take my classes more seriously. This semester, I want to improve my study habits and stay organized from the beginning. One of my biggest goals is to successfully pass all of my classes, especially this English class. I do not want to lose credits or fall behind. In particular, I am determined not to fail the course that requires this diary assignment. I know that attending class regularly, completing assignments on time, and studying consistently are important for success. Therefore, I will make a stronger effort to stay responsible throughout the semester. I also want to balance my studies with my personal interests and part-time work. Although it may be challenging at times, I believe that hard work and good planning will help me achieve my goals. I am excited for this new semester and ready to give my best effort.

In case you missed it last month:

One mistake I often see with IELTS Speaking Many students think a good IELTS Speaking answer needs to be clever or impressive. It doesn't. If you're asked, “Do you think people spend too much time on their phones?”, you don't need an original argument. You need an answer you can develop naturally in English. Instead of: “Yes, I think so.” Try building your answer: Opinion → Reason → Example → Result “Yes, I think many people probably do. One reason is that checking your phone becomes almost automatic. For example, I sometimes see people looking at their phones even when they're having dinner with friends. As a result, I think it can actually make people less connected to the people around them.” Don't memorise that answer. Practise the structure. Try it yourself: Do you think people spend too much time on their phones? Remember: Opinion → Reason → Example → Result.
