very mature and intuitive little girl. The interview with Grace took place at her dance studio; Brooklin Dance Academy. I ensured that we could proceed with the interview with very little to no distractions. Throughout this essay I will be exploring the concept of switching rolls and understanding a child’s perspective of their learning in contrast to my own narrative. Everyone’s perspectives and views of the world are mirrored by what they’ve seen or experienced in life. Within this interview I will
complicated to define a good and a bad person. We all have different opinions on what is the right thing to do and what is the wrong thing to do.

There are smaller metaphors contained inside the larger allegory. Admittedly, a lot of the base ideas I will explore in the proceeding text is

My son has helped me to understand my past, find peace with my present life, and look forward to what lies ahead in our future.

most challenging ones by far. I found myself thinking more critically in this class in comparison to many of my Biotechnology classes.

The previous class taught me how to structurally write a rhetorical critique.
