How My Educational Experience Has Changed From Middle School To High School

Alberto Salazar once said, “an athlete who tells you the training is always easy and always fun simply hasn’t been there. Goals can be exclusive, which makes the difficult journey all the more rewarding”. Training in athletics is like training for college. You have to start all the way at the beginning and work your way up to the top. I come to you today to explain how my difficult journey through high school has influenced my decision about what I want to do in my future, and how it has influenced my family.

As we pulled up to the massive elementary school building, I begged my mom to let me stay home from school, just once. As usual, she said no. Realizing my attempt to get out of school was futile, I shouldered my backpack, swung open the door, and trudged over to the front door. I would rather be anywhere else than here. For the majority of my life, I attended public schools. It wasn’t rare for me to fail a test or even a whole class. It was because of these failures that I would get even more demotivated and threw away the idea of working hard or completing quality work altogether.

“Average? Who wants to be average?” (Rose). During my high school experience, I went through a ton of stress trying to figure out my path to educational success. I was a decently good student with grades consisting of C’s to A’s. Dealing with problems in high school made me realize what I should had done to obtain a proper education. Author Mike Rose of “I Just Wanna Be Average” and article writer Jessica Lahey of “Teaching Math To People Who Think They Hate It” both state solutions to my problems. During high school, I was not very interested during lecture and had a love and hate relationship with math. How I would improve my experience is to do more hands on activities and to learn math in a different way.

Throughout middle school, I've had many different experiences, talked to people and dealt with problems from students, to teachers, to the other staff members of our school. I couldn’t help but notice some things about these three years about grades, my learning styles, relationships, myself, different activities, and my hopes for the future.

Students who are becoming freshmen often ask “what’s it like to be in high school?” High school is not what you think. Freshmen don’t get pushed in lockers, there's not that one popular girl who shoves other students books out of their hands, and the cafeteria is not the most embarrassing place to be. High school is not an amicable. If you really think high school is a amicable place where students smile at each other, think again. Here is some advice from my high school experience.

In middle school, 5th to 8th grade, I endure multiple adjective to describe my experience in middle school. While in Middle School, I struggle with my appearance which has stayed as an adult. For I always look at myself and all the flaws in my features, as my family members and/or friends state my beauty features, I will brushed them off by stating the negative feature I visually observe. Until recently, I’ve overcome my inability of reading in public and/or to my peers. As my cousin passed away tragically, his mother (my Aunt) asked if I will read his poem to her and a group of 50 strangers. She knew my fear of public speaking, she also knew my dream of becoming a teacher and starting to a career as a substitute teacher. Therefore, she knew I needed to overcome the fear of speaking. I am extremely pleased with myself to speak clearly and to have the strength and encouragement of my family to overcome my greatest fear with a poem in dedication to my beloved cousin.

My middle school experience has been like a rollercoaster, full of ups and down and sharp twist and turns that either make me scream in excitement or cry in fear, and in the end, it went by too quickly making me question whether I want to experience it all over again or leave and never turn back. No matter how I feel about it, middle school has shaped who I am today. Since the beginning of 6th grade till now, the end of 8th grade, I’ve changed a lot. I’m not just walking able gaining weight and growing a few inches; I’m talking about what I discovered. The last 3 years has taught me many lessons and helped me grow emotionally and changed my view of the world, the people around me and myself.

In elementary school whilst my peers were playing dress up and feeding tea to their stuffed animals, my imaginary play entailed lining up all my animals in neatly constructed rows so that they would be prepared for my class. Although the teacher-student play was natural and fun, it was not evident to me at that time that I was destined to become a teacher.

My experience as a eighth grader at the Middle School was good. The skills and knowledge that will help me as a freshman at the high school would be to complete assignments when due, advocate for myself, and try to acommplish getting good grades, and at last staying organized. I am looking forward to strive for good grades, and being successful throughout the school year. Towards the end of my eighth grade year, towards March and April I learned about my upcoming freshman year. A group of Scarborough High School students came to the Scarborough Middle School cafeteria and told eighth graders what its like in Highschool and how to be successful as a Highschool student. Some things they talked about were core classes, programs of studies, study

In my time at Eastern Connecticut State University, I learned a lot about myself and what I have been doing as a student. In that time, I learned not only about myself, my academic strength’s and even learned to think critically and ask questions. Eastern has taught me to be myself and this campus puts more emphasis on individuality over group thinking. I learned a lot in applying my critical thinking skills to my history classes and learned a lot in how to look at History in everyday context. What my experience at Eastern as taught me that, I never gave up and I always persevere in many difficult challenges this campus has tossed at me. I always came out on top and learned to deal with challenges that I will face later in Graduate school and in life.

When I was in Elementary School my parents, especially my dad preached to me to always read because your vocabulary will soon become sizable. I really did not care about reading for fun or about what my dad said. I know that it is my responsibility to read on my own but it did not help that most if not all of my friends in elementary school did not read books for a hobby. My parents tried to get me reading at a young age, but now I am starting to read a lot more than I did several years ago.

I have changed in numerous ways. One way I have changed is that I know a lot more people and have let friends go. In addition, my days are a little “dull” and will fade into each other; if I didn’t have friends each day would be boring and like the others. Somehow, even with this dullness, my days are lot more stressful, what I mean is that you can have to type a two-page review on one chapter in five days, have to film a video, at the same time have to write a 10 page book with pictures on each page and if you are unlucky have to write a ton of code on your own. That’s a lot of things to do and those are classes you get to choose, not even classes like English,

I don’t think I have changed that much I’m still the old me and it’s going to stay like that probably for another year. I like myself how I am I make people laugh! That’s what I love and what I also love is that I love to help people out. If it’s something to do with problems I will help them on whatever. What something changed were the knowing people last year in eighth grade I will talk to more than hundred a day and a hug like hundred people, now that I changed because I met new people. Know I have to meet people from another school and like tell them hi. I’m really outgoing if someone tells me “hey go say hi” and I will go I’m not afraid of anything. I came out like

Student experiences can be evaluated in a variety of ways and attributed to the quality of educational systems. At different ages, students are better suited to different types of learning environments and teaching methods; however, the effectiveness of schools and teachers continuously influences all school-aged children. Throughout this analysis, I will focus primarily on my experience during my 6th grade year in middle school, including how my success was affected by the effectiveness of the school and my teachers throughout the year.

How i changed in high school was little help and time but time will tell the rest of my high school years.
