We had to work with each other the entire semester together, being dependent on each other for our grades. One group member, in the beginning was not pulling their weight and would be working on it until the last second or submit late. I decided to ask if the person needed help, or if there was something they were not getting. As it turned out, he was unclear on some instructions and wasn’t getting the material. So I decided to help him out and invite him to my study sessions, and either that or bringing it up to his attention that he needed to pick up the pace put us back on track.

During my first quarter of running start, I took intro to sociology and I had a major midterm project. When we were aquatinted with our members I took initiative to make sure we could all communicate and work online to reduce the number of times we needed to meet so that the students who had trouble with transportation could carpool with members of our group who lived near the college. We decided to spend a few minutes after class on discussing the project and whilst doing so I could see that a particular member of our group, Alex would doubt her ability to work on the project. I made sure that she knew that having her in our group was crucial to successes and that I am open to helping her overcome her doubts. We had conversations about struggling

A time when I accomplished something by continuing to try even when success did not appear imminent was when I thought I was not going to get my varsity letter in Northview Cross country after NLL's even though I did not exactly break 18 minutes and 30 seconds for a 5K. In the NLL race I knew from the start I had to stay relaxed, race people, and not go out to fast so I am not dead after the first mile. So I went out towards to top pack and stayed tough with the other runners as long as I could. When I approached the final 400 meters I did an all out sprint allowing me to pass 3 runners giving me a time of 18 minutes and 35 minutes. I felt proud of this accomplishment and even happier when my coach said "I think you are going to get your
During first semester, Mu Alpha Theta, a math honors society. The chapter in my high school requires its members to fulfill a minimum of 7 service hours. These hours were obtained through the tutoring of high school students in lower level math courses. The student I tutored expressed a great dislike and frustration in mathematics. Every Monday afternoon, it was the same situation: I would see a failed test or an unfinished homework assignment. I wanted to help them get better, therefore each Monday I would sit down with him for an hour, sometimes later, and we would go over those questions together. One session, we sat down and they pulled out a recent test. I was ecstatic to see they had improved on a topic we had worked on!
