Sarah Pageau Religion December 11, 2011 Per.1 8B I walked into Las Vegas Day School’s 3C classroom excited and nervous for the first day of school. My teacher was Mrs. Negrin. She was super nice and made us all feel welcome. I was looking forward to this year because I heard from the big kids that we all did a lot of fun activites. My goals for the year were to have lots of fun and get good grades.
I started to become the center of all the girl drama that went around. And it seemed like I was in the counselor’s office regularly to get an update to see how I was doing. My lack of self confidence and the trouble in high school reflected my attitude towards my education. I was never confident when it came to projects, assignments, or class work. It felt like my peers were better than me because it seemed like they put a lot of thought and input into their school works while I felt like I turned in something worthless.
It helped me overcome the struggles I faced in this new land, turning me into a realistic, social, and confident individual. By forcing myself to make friends in school, I became outgoing and independent, willing to interact with diverse classmates. As I did so, I realized that I had become friends with a lot of the people in my grade. In opening up, I found that the world was not nearly as scary or dreadful as I had feared. Instead, it was full of warmth and positive energy.
I felt that there were a lot of things I did well as a teacher. It didn’t take a lot of time for the students to open up to me, and feel comfortable to ask questions. I really enjoyed answering the questions each student had, and even teaching some students how to conjugate verbs and use them. I also thought that I did a great job in encouraging the students, and not letting them just slip by when I knew they were capable of doing better. In one case, we all had to make a fool of ourselves by dancing to the alphabet song, but I can guarantee that the students won’t soon forget the words to the song.
To whom it may concern, As I ponder the academic future of my child, I sit down and think of my academic past. I attended Hatch Middle School when I was a teenager. I didn’t like it, at all. I was bullied for no reason. I was always worried about being beaten because of my ethnic background.
I had a reason to do my best and she brought that characteristic out of me. Even better than being rewarded for memory was when I learned to have fun while learning. The most prevalent experince of this for me was in my tenth grade year of high school in America. I moved to America and thought I would not fit in with society. However, when I started school I integrated well with the other students and found that many were interested in my Hatian culture.
Even though they weren’t a requirement mentioning them & making a few connections would help your paper along. Purpose & Audience: Again, rather well in this aspect. I would give it another B- here. While you did have a clear purpose with plenty of support to coincide with it, the audience I believe you got confused. In your essay you made the target audience High school Students but the essay seemed more directed at teachers & those
Being an RA/CA will help improve me being much more responsible with a job. Whenever I have a job I am responsible. But I feel as though I can never be more responsible. I take any job I have seriously. I hope to be a great asset to the school.
I had lot of support making sure that I was not facing the difficulties or challenges alone. I had the chance of meeting the most wonderful young lady in my school, she have been the most supportive woman I could have ever meet in high school. She was there with me every single step of high school and getting all my school information organized the way they are supposed to be. With Ms. Francis help I learned a lot of skills that I never know I could have mastered in school at all. I am a person who love being in school that’s where my family lies, school have a lot of different people but the god ones are hard to fine.
All it really takes is for one teacher, just one, to give you the extra push that you need to succeed academically. For me it was my high school history teacher Mr. Zigler. From my freshman to senior year of high school, Mr. Zigler would tutor me in all subjects to help me succeed and to help me get into advanced placement classes as well. Not only that, but I trusted him with everything, it was like he was my personal therapist in school, being that I didn’t have that at home. It was with his help that
