Voting for me would allow them to have a better secretary for the rest of the year and possibly a better representative next year. By voting for me to go to CASL, my classmates would benefit because we would have a better & experienced leader in their class. I have shown major commitment and dedication to both leadership and my class. Every single day (even Mondays), I am early and ready to learn how to become a better leader. I have also been at almost every single workday the freshman class has had for all required events.
It was a feat on its own being able to balance my time for school, sports, and family/friends. Now I had the challenge of balancing work, extra-curricular projects, and many other things that are connected with living the life of a college student. The equilibrium in my life was no more, but I was able to assess the situation and plan for the challenges ahead. I broke down the many commitments I had made to associations, and decided that I would balance my efforts accordingly so I could achieve success in the most important of my endeavors. My grades did take a slight decline during my first two years of college, for sports and work consumed large chunks of my time.
English 101 August 23 2011 What I hope to accomplish this semester With the start of my freshman college year, there are many changes about. These changes range from leaving home for the first time, to starting a new school, new teachers, and new friends. Although we have only just started classes I have high expectations for the semester. This semester my high expectations start with having a better understanding of biology. Along with that I hope to learn more about better time management in my college skills 105 class.
Aside from the class content I learned that I don’t wait for things to happen I went into this telling my group that under no circumstance could I lead this project but I found myself incapable of waiting for things to evolve on their own, I have more of a leader personality than I thought. How did the interpersonal dynamics affect your participation? If there were conflicts, how were they resolved? I am not shy and I was able to communicated with team members well, we had fun most of the time. Unfortunately we did not have a good dynamic with at least 1 team member which cause a quite a bit of delay and frustration, but we were able to side step this for the most part and push on with the objectives.
Cari Buckley At the beginning of the semester, I thought I had a general knowledge of how to write a well thought-out paper with interesting hooks and developed paragraphs. Although I am still nowhere near a perfect writer or even qualified as a great writer, I feel that I have learned the skills necessary to hone and improve my abilities. I am almost positive that it will take a lot of work and dedication to perfect language as a tool of power, but I know that my newfound knowledge will help me on my journey. Throughout the entire semester, the research paper and the radical revision really helped open my mind to language as power. Because I wrote my paper on something that I feel very passionate about, I realized how easy and hard it is
My Writing Has Improved this Semester! Have you ever had to take a class and thought, “This is going to be the death of me?” I’m sure everybody has thought that. Usually the classes that you hate the most; are the ones that are more beneficial. As in my case, ENC 91has taught me several important concepts on becoming a stronger writer. My writing has improved this semester tremendously.
My Academic Philosophy I feel that education is in place to help students to fully achieve their goals in life. Students of today are our tomorrow. High school is here to help us set our GPA so that we can apply to a great college. When I entered ninth grade, I thought I knew what I was capable of, but I was wrong. As time went on I realized that I needed so much more.
Also I would read over handouts more effectively to study so that I have a better understanding. This semester has had its ups and downs mostly downs but I look forward to next year being much better. Next year I’m going to study more for French tests so that I do better and bring my grade up in the class. In A.V.I.D. I want to continue doing good and raise my grade to an A.
That is really all the teacher is trying to do. Make you want to work harder so you can start writing like a professional. All teachers have seen many essays over their career and they expect the new students every year to be able to write better than the last. Just like in a job, if the manager gets fired and you get promoted to manager your expected to be better than the last one; and teachers know by the end of the year if they have taught their students to be better than last year’s students. To them if that doesn’t turn out to be true then they feel like they have failed and didn’t do their job.
