A Significant Experience Analysis

Describe the most challenge you have faced and the steps you have taken to overcome this challenge. How has this challenge affected your academic achievement?

The mistakes of my past have helped to develop my future and the person that I am now. Throughout this whole process, I guess you can say I learned that it doesn't matter how bad you messed up or who you hurt in the process, it’s all about how you own up to your mistakes and what you learn from them. While I was in my early stages of school life I always wanted everyone to approve of me and think I was the nicest person they ever met, so I always tried to blend in. I didn't realize till later that being too nice was actually more of a disadvantage than beneficial, if you're too nice people will waste no time taking advantage of it the moment you give them the chance. Yes, I know that’s something that everyone should learn before entering middle school, but I didn't realize how the real world actually looked/treated people like me till I experienced it firsthand. While in elementary school, I only spoke when I was spoken to and, at first, I didn't think much about it, but later I felt out of place.

I felt like I had let my kids down. I went to camp to better a camper in some way and I failed that when I was dishonest and was overall a bad role model at times. As a result of this hard and painful look I have changed around a lot of things about my behavior so that it better reflects the kind of man I hope to be and have tried hard to make every day choices that more closely reflect the standards and expectations of Seagull: work hard, do your best, whatever all those things are and then talk about as an example of working hard and doing my best, I have even changed around how I approach my schoolwork more seriously and have seen great improvement in that area too. I created a detriment to the camper experience by leaving and a new counselor coming in my place. I hope that the damage done to the camper experience last summer can be made up for to some small extent by being a personal example of a guy who is able to turn a painful experience into a growth one and become a better person even after making mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes in this life and how we are judged in the end it's not, I hope, by the number of mistakes we make but instead by what we make of those mistakes, how we choose to respond and improve ourselves because of them, and be the example and inspiration to others who make mistakes. I can demonstrate if you work hard and care deeply enough you can turn yourself around to a positive place and a better person. hope that I can make up for it in a small extent by being a positive role model to my campers and being the most positive role model to my

The way that I work depends entirely on the situation. Like on this essay, I am carefully planning this and reviewing it multiple times, and thinking about the prompt. I am the type of person who does not procrastinate but finishes it the smart way, rather than the night before.

I would never be in this situation if it was not for opening myself up, and meeting other people in my previous years. I really do not care what other people think of me, and I learned I am not perfect. I like to be in the moment and live life to the fullest. I am not afraid to go out on a limb anymore and I make mistakes in order to learn from them. All in all, I am not afraid of humiliating myself and being me. I love to laugh, I laugh very easy; at myself and others. Laughter to me is contagious, and I always laugh to a point where I cry. With laughter and humility comes

After trying a few of the connect activities I learned that I manage my time well towards my success. This is the time for me to show what I am made of so that I can continue to be a successful student while attending The University Of Phoenix. My success is crucial to me and taking what I know and continuing to learn more I will be a successful

In telling your story, we hope to make people understand that there is good in everyone. People make mistakes, but it is how they handle their mistake that defines the person they are.

A significant experience in my life, which required me to interact with someone outside of my own social group, was working with disabled children. I first began working with disabled children in high school. This experience gave me a new perspective on how disabled children interface with the world; and how developing a meaningful relationship with them can be positive for both of us. The class was an Autism Spectrum Disorder Link program, which I participated in for two years. After my first year, it really touched me and made me feel as if I made a difference among my fellow students. Not only did I feel that I lifted the spirits of the kids I was working with, but it also created a certain happiness and fulfillment that made me want to

First semester of mine sophomore year had some challenging things. One was taking a course called Chemistry in that class we do a lot of math and some awesome labs too. I believe chemistry is way harder than my normal math class. The homework sometimes was really hard to understand so sometimes I asked for help. Another big challenge I had was fixing my schedule because I never had time to do stuff like homework and study for important test because I would always be busy doing something else. My last challenge for first semester was completing a book over thanksgiving break. Why was it a challenge because I started all late but and the end it was worth reading it. It is called To Kill A MockingBird.

The most significant challenge I have faced is public speaking. When I came to the U.S, I faired with talking to other people using English. My first day at school, I was faired when my first “American teacher” wanted me to introduce myself. I was hiding behind my aunty back and looking at the teacher like a creepy person. When my aunty has to went home and leave me there, I was running to a group of students that I thought they’re Vietnamese like me. But I ended up they’re not Vietnamese, they’re Thailand. Later on, I had to do a presentation in front of my classmates and teachers about what different between in my country and here. First I was sacking a lot then I tried to encourage myself. Other students was laughing and joking around,

I have become an extremely independent and vivacious person which I am so happy; if there is someone that is trying to bring me down it is going to be extremely difficult because I have built this personality that thrives on staying strong, and if I do have a bad day, which does occur I know I can rely on the people I have chosen to surround myself on this journey of mine. The worst pain I have ever felt has driven me to be a person I am proud to be, even though the wounds will never go away I have been able to bandage them, so I can keep fighting my

My main struggle in school would be in English, I could never understand how english teachers would grade a essay and know what to look for in an essay to know if it’s right or wrong. I remember being in the fourth grade and my english class had to write a fictional story that had to be a page and a half long. While i was writing the the story in the beginning the story was starting off great halfway into my story i started making up things that didn’t go along with the beginning of my story, so

I will always treasure those valuable times that I spent with her, but day by day, I noticed how she started to communicate less with me. I eventually had an idea that she wasn 't doing well. Eventually, I found out that she got diagnosed with cancer. I got a call from my mom, she had explained to me what cancer is, and that my grandma had it. My mom never came home that night for some reason. Instead, she called to say she loved me, to keep the house clean, and take care of my sisters while she was at the hospital with my grandma, and while my dad was at work. I had to prepare dinner for my family, take care of my pets, help my little sister with homework, and keep the house clean. These were the new responsibilities that I had to take care of. I didn 't think that a ten year old girl could be responsible of these types of things, but I was, and my family counted on me. While my dad was always at work, it was hard for me to take on these new challenges in my life, but it makes me work that much harder, knowing what she was going through. I tried to visit her every chance that I could, so that I could talk with her, but she wasn 't the same. I would always come into her bedroom, and she could barely get the words out. This made my heart heavy, and I would cry during these tragic moments. My mom, being a nurse, would help her every day, and my family would come visit her in the hospital. We would bring cards and

The most significant challenge I have faced was balancing my academics and sports. I have been involved in the boy's soccer program at Palm Desert High School since my freshman year and each season has proven to be a test for me academically. I must say that attempting to balance my school work and soccer during my freshman and sophomore year has taken a toll on my academic achievement. It is unfortunate, however, I learned many things that will benefit me in the future. It was difficult because stress and anxiety amounted on top of all the school work and assignments that needed to be completed with the little time I had in my hands. Each season lasted around four months and during those four months, I accumulated bad habits. I procrastinated

5) My most significant challenge that I have faced during my high school years was math. I was able to overcome and gave it my all junior year. I was on track, bringing up my grades. Because it meant a lot for me to have that education to be able to graduate from high school and being able to be the first one in my family to go to college and succeed in life. Senior year is the time to shine and pass my classes junior year. I was doing alright until second semester came and I did my best to pass, at the end, I passed with four A’s and three B‘s. I pushed myself a lot to accomplish my goal in getting good grades and passing. My biggest challenge was taking summer school retaking math 2 semesters Furthermore, I took 4 packets of English and 3 packets of drawing and painting for credits so now I am back on track I'm only taking 5 classes senior year Guitar, Math 3, English 4, TA Teacher Aide and American Government. These classes have a
