I Was Not A Perfect Smart Student

Words cannot express my gratitude. Receiving the Bettye McDonald Caldwell and Fred T. Caldwell, Jr. scholarship is truly an honor! After the lottery scholarship, I end up having to pay for about half my tuition, which makes this gift is an incredible blessing. Going to school full-time and working full-time is a difficult balancing act, but not working is not an option. When I opened the email stating I had been awarded this scholarship, a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders and an overwhelming sense of accomplishment overtook me. It gave me a deep and powerful feeling of success. This scholarship award is proof to me that hard work does pay off. It is a motivator to work even harder to achieve my goals and reach my dream career. I sincerely thank you with every piece of my heart.

Or that I often think outside the box which has led me to new adventures. Or even because I strive to build up my reputation by building up the community’s reputation. However, that is not why I feel I deserve this scholarship. Like myself, Robert loved adventure and finding beauty in everyone and everything. Robert was an influential person in my family. He shaped my older sister to the woman she is today. Every summer I found myself in the bleachers watching softball games. Robert treated every girl on those teams like they were his own daughters. He coached them to not only be better ball players but he also coached them to be better individuals. Speaking of daughters, his own daughter Bayli, who is truly her father’s daughter, has motivated me in many ways. FFA a huge part of her life and seeing where it took her was what I wanted for myself. She also sees the best in everyone and wants to make the world better one community service project at a

I am truly honored to accept the Joseph Fleming Endowment Scholarship. Thank you for the honor to receive this scholarship and the assistance for my education from Iowa State University. My childhood dream was to come Iowa State and to study agriculture. I can’t thank you enough for the scholarship award to help me finance my education at Iowa State.

Ms. Bandsma is a type of student one notices from the start. She is quick to participate and I could count on her to respond whenever I needed class feedback. She also did not hesitate to offer help to students on her table, and reiterate the merits of completing their work if they fell behind. Her work was always timely and complete, and she promptly asked questions to make sure she understood concepts.

Of the many classes that I chose to take, my two favorites were an English course and Health course. I may want to be a K-9 Officer, and these have few things in common with that career goal, but they were my favorite courses because of the professors who taught the course. Janice (Meredith) Privott for the English course, and Matthew Harpold for the Health course. These two teachers helped push me to better myself in almost every way. Mrs.Privott helped me on a personal level with stress and trauma; from her support she made me a much stronger person. Mr.Harpold helped me with my self-esteem, he took the time to help me when I needed it, even when I wasn’t in his class, just as Mrs.Privott did.

One of my many aspirations at the University of Texas is to become a principal factor of the scholar community. Being a pertinent part of this highly-educated group will be a crucial part of my future as well as my fellow colleagues at UT. Not only will the Forty Acres Scholar Program help pay for my education at the University of Texas, it will teach me the values of education and teaching others. The scholarly community will help me branch my passions to other people so that they can also be shown the same light that was shown to me and they can see what made me adopt my taste in sports, music, and life in general. They can do the same, which will increasingly make college life much more amusing. This great opportunity will provide everyone

I am honored to be one of the recipients of the Lawrence J. Sonneman and Laurelle A. Sonneman Endowed Memorial Scholarship. Thanks to your generous support I am the first in my family to attend college.

I've decided to do my project on my DRE-098 teacher whose name is Jayce Russell. Mr. Russell teaches at RCC and he does many other things that go with teaching like grading and going to meetings and helping students the best way he can. He said he decided to pursue this career because it let him get the degrees he wanted and he says it takes advantage of communication skills and a chance to help others and make a difference. He believes that by forming relationships in college is you get to meet new people who change the way you think about things and you have similar interest with them. His advice for students is to be open and take advantage of everything that’s offered to the students like the library, the ARC and office hours that teachers

Knowing that a faculty or staff member from Brazosport College believes that I deserve to receive the Distinguished Student Award is an extreme blessing to me. Working three jobs and handling a full-time school schedule is not an easy task to handle; however, I have been able to accomplish great things throughout my educational career at Brazosport College. I am currently a Representative for the Student Government Association, Phi-Theta Kappa member, Student worker in the Institutional Research department, and I have been on the Dean’s list for the 2015-16 semesters. Long nights and early mornings have come along with these accomplishments, but I am determined to turn my dreams into a reality and give back to the community that has granted me amazing

Parson was very supportive. According to NYU, when the teacher is supportive and is positive, then there is a likely chance that the student will do much better in class. I did very well in class with also the help of Mr. Parson. My teacher was always full of positivity and always told me to never give up. Plus, I had more than one teacher when I need help. Thus, I felt like I could do anything with the help of my teacher helped me a lot.

In this paper I will be explaining my biggest failure, how I was affected, and what I learned from this failure. I know there will be more failures in my life but at this time my biggest failure has been the many failed tests and assignments at the Early College. Most of my failures have been caused by my own procrastination.

While my teacher and I did have our struggles I did learn a lot from her. I will use some of her techniques in my future classroom. One of them is at the beginning of each day she allowed that students time to talk. Along with get out all of the materials they need for the class that day. I came up with an idea during this time when I was with her to play a “Name that Song” game with the students. This was a great way for them to use comprehension skills with songs they love to listening to. I also loved how during the week she has an agenda paper hung up in her classroom. During the week students can write down any concerns or things they would like to change about the classroom. Then at the

     One type of professor in the college system is the helpful professor. This professor can be recognized right away by their smile and joyfulness in the classroom. These professors give upbeat and

Her class of teachers take their jobs very seriously, and do not tolerate students who skip or disrupt their classes. These teachers are fun, because once you get them off on some irrelevant tangent, they will keep themselves going on it for entire class segments, trying to get out years of thought and consideration in just a short period of time. This is how I got to know my psychology teacher, because I was the one who kept her talking, so that the class could avoid taking the quiz that none of us had studied for. Teachers like her have the innate gift to educate and entertain, with their comprehensive lessons and subtle quirks.

Walking into the first two weeks of the EDU program I desired to experience what it would be like to be a future educator and have a grasp of how to help the molding of our youth and giving them the possibility to become future leaders. Doctor dresser was able to bring in a Concordia alumni who had just begun to experience his professional education, career and is teaching multiple different grade levels as a young teacher. When he first walked into the classroom my first impressions were that unfortunately he looked very inexperienced and unsure of what was to be expected of the lecture I thought to myself in the position of a younger student in his classroom this is a person I would not take seriously. He then proceeded to communicate
