Because Bullock's grandmother only received formal education until eighth grade, and his mother a high school graduate, and his father being a high school dropout, he was taught by his grandmother to love learning. By then, through his grandmother's motivation, he was the first in his family to ever graduate from college. In this essay, Bullock shows to us the great motivation that his grandmother has done to him over the past years or, in the years where he was still studying. Him learning to read in a very early age was one of the effects of his grandmother's great perseverance on him towards reading and learning. As he went on with his reading journey, he later on stumbled upon the case of Dr. Sam Sheppard who was all over the papers of Cleveland at that time.

Kathleen went to school to become a nurse practitioner when Becka turned one, and Brent took care of her during the day while Kathleen went to school. He worked as a custodian in the evenings. They have advocated strongly for Becka’s inclusion in the general education classroom, sometimes needing to threaten the schools with mediation. However, the schools and Becka’s family have finally recognized the value of her placement, and have seen significant growth in Becka’s social and academic outcomes. Becka has one younger brother, Alex, who is in the first grade, and who is progressing well through the general curriculum.

It was only when I finally entered college that I realized I had always loved working with, and the idea of taking care of children; and what I truly wanted to do with the rest of my life was to teach children with mental disabilities. My career goal, which I have slowly been working towards throughout my 2 years in college, is to become a special education teacher for elementary students. I am currently signed up as double major in elementary and early childhood education and psychology in Queens College. I have taken many pre-requisite classes, as well as several courses specifically designed for elementary education. These courses allowed me to be taught by actual elementary school teachers, who have years of experience with working with children, and the knowledge and advice they were able to pass on truly helped me better understand what I was signing up for as an education major, and helped my improve the way I teach so that I could articulate in a way that would be comprehensible to students of a young age.
