My Experience In Education : My Challenges In My Education

My grades were going down beacuse I always got home late from practice. I was so occupied with baseball that I never focused at school. “How can you play if you can’t focus during scool.” This time, my dad said it in a depressed way while walking out of my room. He got tired of raising hs voice. I looked at myself in the mirror and promised to fix myself, day by day, to become an example of being a student athlete. The following day, I took a lot of notes, asked questions, worked with my teachers after school when I needed help, and I never fell asleep before completing all of my homework. Things immediately picked up with my grades and baseball. I still carry out these habits until now. With all the hardships that I have been going throughout my highschool career, my work ethic is still strong. I continue my endeavors to become a star student and an outstanding baseball player, even if my schedule is full. As people had brought me down in the past, I am now grateful of their opinions. I was able to stop slacking on what’s important. I learned that life has given me obstacles so that I would be the prime example of what I promised myself to

Growing up, I did not really understand the importance of education. It was only until high school did I begin to realize that education would determine my future. As I realized my passion for medicine, I realized the immense amount of studying that I would need to do. I had not really studied in the past but I finally began to focus heavily on my studies in high school. As I learn more and more I realize that I have been generally oblivious to how certain subjects guide the world that humans know.

Seeing people that will be graduating with me this year not able to go to universities or get further education made me realize how great of a privilege I have. I have been fortunate to have been born in a family that can afford to send not only me, but my other siblings to college as well. This is why I want to go to college, in order to make the best of my education not only

In Seventh grade, I was starting a new high school and was able to be carefree. I was able to slack off and get away with it. During my Seventh grade year, I was a happy. I was able to strive for straight A’s and still be stress free. I made new friends that understood me and I kept my friends close by. It was satisfying to know the environment around me and know my surroundings. As the years went by, I still continued to take the easy path. I wanted an easygoing school year where I didn’t have stress on my plate. Now, in my junior year of highschool, I have a bunch load of work and stress. Since I had reached high school, I needed more of a challenge. I needed something that would allow me to improve myself and become better. My parents had always told me that education was the key to a happy life. Receiving good grades and doing well would bring me happiness in the future. I had strived to become better and going through the many challenges that appeared was one of the obstacles that I had to

Although I stumbled quite a bit along the way, taking courses that challenged me mentally, making grades that aren’t indicative of my true performance in a course while searching for a major and career I would be passionate about, at least I was afforded a chance to do so. My education became more than just an academic pursuit; it became

When the school year started, I realized I wouldn't be able to do all the things I wanted to do and keep my grades up. I had to choose between my love for sports and my love for the arts. I wanted to continue running on the cross-country team, and later on, do indoor and outdoor track and field. For me, running is important. It's something I enjoy doing, and after the summer captain's practices, I have grown to love the people I run with. The team really felt like a family and I loved being with them day to day. If I continued to run I would do track in both, the winter and spring. On the other hand, I had the arts. I have always had a passion for the arts which not only included painting and drawing but also theatrical performances. Theater has been something that I have done all my life. It has been a way of expression for me and my childish dreams of going to Broadway or becoming an actress have stayed with me to this day. This year I realized how much it meant to me and I wasn't ready to give up on it. I wasn't ready to quit something that I have been doing for years. However, I did want to be part of a new group and join a sports team. It took a long time to decide and one main struggle that has continued is I don't know if I made the right decision. I decided to join the cross-country team and later join the track and field

Throughout my life I faced a lot of challenges. I had to overcome the obstacle that was on my way. The obstacle made me stronger and made me the person who I am right now a ambitious and hardworking student. The problem shaped me up because I know that I have to work for what I want and to not depend on no one, this made me more independent. Also, I learned from my mistake and try to do better.

"Education is the key to success" my father always said. This is a motivational quote that will always stick with me because of the impact it has made in my life. Even before my school days I watched my parents whip my siblings into shape to push them to succeed beyond expectations. My siblings worked exceptionally hard in school which paid off when they received awards and recognition. This pushed me to follow in their footsteps and lead me to do well in school and to have a driven mindset. Being a very humble person, I always had friends of different upbringings and futures. Good companions of mine who went to school and did well tend to be better off financially and emotionally. Seeing others progress always and still does makes me want to do well in every educational aspect I am in. I insist on seeing all the work I have put in and will continue to put in pay off. When I use this drive of education to complete college I wish to find the job of my

In the fall, I was a member of the 1st field hockey team. Being that it was the first year for field hockey, it was not the most serious and strict sport. Next year I plan to be involved in field hockey, however it is not the most serious and strict sport so I will be fully committed to any retreat that I get put on. During the winter and through the spring I run varsity track at Walsh. Although I am a member of the varsity team, I know that the coaches are very understanding if we miss practice due to a school retreat. Track will not keep me from being fully committed to being a retreat leader. Throughout the school year I am involved with Justice League. Although it is hard during a sport season, I try my hardest to go to Justice League every Tuesday. With Justice League, I participate in Gonzaga every week that I can, and Labre every week that I get picked. I am also a leader of the Buddy Club. Next year Buddy Club has a couple of meetings and parties planned, but nothing that will keep me from being available for any retreat. Since my parents each own their own business, I am lucky to be able to work for them. I get to schedule my own working hours which is great. I plan to keep working throughout my senior year. They are very understanding when I can’t work because I have school activities or retreats. Although it may seem like I am very busy, none of my sports or activities are that serious in

I am currently a student at Barton Peveril college studying: Biology , Psychology and Sociology. I chose these subjects because I enjoy science and I have a particular interest in child development and behaviour,due to these interests I am keen to pursue a career in education as a primary school teacher. I particularly enjoy psychology, so far we have investigated: child development and behaviour. Within this we learnt how children of different ages are able to learn different things at different stages. For example a child does not acquire the cognitive ability to conserve until over the age of seven. This is where they understand that something stays the same in quantity even though its appearance changes.I found this particularly interesting because younger children would think that the amount has changed because the appearance has changed.

Throughout most of my early life, I had always wanted to challenge myself, especially from an academics standpoint. For the most part, it seemed like it was not all that difficult; that the path to succeeding in these advanced classes would not be too stressing. But this view would drastically change during my sophomore year. It was only my second year in high school, and the very busy schedule with advanced classes hit me hard. Certainly, this life required someone with a hard work ethic, great discipline, and very good time management; honestly, however my 15 year old self was not well equipped for the challenge. Also during this year, I worked hard and placed myself on varsity basketball, which proved to be very time consuming and demanding. Balancing the arduous schedule of varsity basketball, string orchestra, and advanced academic classes

My family, culture, educational, professional experiences have all been positive. The different teachers that I have had; guided me into considering the teaching career for many reasons. First, my family has guided me, my mom and dad have always found the right schools for me. They have pushed me to do hard things that make me scared. They have had faith in the school’s that I chose were the right choices, and they will grow on me. My cultural experience is also a factor of why I want to be a teacher. My schools have been centered on helping students who have learning differences, so I have always been open about having a learning difference to other people. My educational experience has been amazing. It has been positive for me because the schools I have gone to were safe places that I could be myself. The teachers at my schools made a significant impact on me starting at a young age. The professional experience has been limited but beneficial. I worked at Stratford Friends School; I learned it is so much fun to work with children who were just like me. I love the children and school. I get excited about going back to school shopping. I love to dance in the isles, and I love to look at all the beautiful school supplies.

The beginning of my educational journey began at home. Unlike the most kids, my mother had decided to homeschool me for preschool; due to our family’s financial struggles that were very prevalent in my elementary years. Despite English being her second language, she taught me the basics of English and mathematic concepts. As a result, when I entered kindergarten, I was able recall this knowledge and quickly understood the concepts. By the first month, I was already ahead of my classmates. This was very special to me. My success sparked my interest and curiosity when it came to education.

Throughout my educational experience, I have endured countless hardships that made progress difficult at times. Although it was a struggle through my strong dedication to education, I have also earned a list of achievements for my hard work. These experiences from, failing two of my English classes, to excelling tremendously in mathematics, have molded me into the type of student I am today. I am a student with a growth mindset and, an optimistic outlook on education and, the bright future ahead. I now understand the impact that a positive mindset can have on your future. I am definitely proud of the student I have become. I feel like my journey is unique, but is also very relatable.

I didn’t bother to wonder what education means to me until I was about to attend college. A friend of mine caused me to. Now I feel thankful to have him as my friend because the lesson I learned from that wondering is priceless.
