Personal Statement For Education

I am currently a year 11 students at Beauchamp College. I believe myself to be a dedicated, self-motivated as well as a confident person. I can complete tasks on my own but I can also work well as part of a team. More over I cope extremely well under pressure and always aspire to do everything to the best of my ability. Whilst I have clear objectives, I also take in advice and use it to better my self as a person.

“I have a dream that one day I will overcome the struggles that I have faced living in a poverty-stricken community.”

From taking my first steps at the age of 8 months old, to walking alone to a friend’s house at 3(kids don’t try this at home), followed by cooking dinners autonomously at 10 years old, my life has accumulated to a series of beautiful memories that my father has meticulously sculpted to raise me as an independent young lady. He taught me the virtues of such self governing and the beauty of freedom that such a gift dons. Every day I strive to honor such teachings. It is no wonder that these lessons have led me to strive to pay for college by myself.

College has always been that light shinning up ahead. Something I look forward to with a sense of wonder when I spend my time stuck in a small town in the middle of nowhere. After dealing with strict parents, intense classes, and numerous extracurriculars, I daydream about the life I have been working so hard to make come true. I know that when I get to college, all the seemingly endless hours of work I put into making my application sparkle will be worth it because I will be independent and away from the drama of my family while learning the information needed for my dream job. It seem that most of the time spent in high school is used to prepare students for university. All of the time that my teachers and parents invested in me leads me

As I think of my career, one thing comes to mind is improving the education system in the classroom setting. I plan to get certified to teach secondary education or more specifically the subject of English. My career will begin at the high school, I plan to teach High School English for at least five years. During these years, I hope to continue my own education to receive my master’s degree that way I can better improve my abilities. In doing this I can also improve my teaching abilities, thus helping my students’ education experience.

Instilled since childhood, we were all taught to pursue a college education. When asked about attending a postsecondary school or program, the hands of each student would shoot upwards into the air as if their dreams were already in reach. In fact, many students consider a college education worth the time, money, and energy since in the long run, the effort will pay off in the form of higher salaries, steadier careers, and an overall healthier standard of living. However, though I believe attending a college is important for all the same reasons, I also consider universities to have much more to offer than the amount my paycheck has to offer each week. Completing a postsecondary program is an opportunity that can provide the resources never

For most of my life I have worked with children as a teacher, camp counselor, mentor, nanny, and program director. Years ago, I decided I wanted to create afterschool programs for students. I have seen within my community the effects of drug abuse, teen pregnancy, and delinquency among our youth. Since we live on an island, most adolescents live in rural areas and if you are not involved in sports or surfing, there isn’t much to do; which is why many get involved in drug usage, sexual promiscuity, and delinquent behavior. An afterschool program could provide our youth the means to have access to tutoring, provide guidance and mentorship, opportunities to participate in art, dance, and gardening, all within a fun, safe environment where they

During my time in this Foundation for student Achievement program.I acquired, learned many things that can help me in my future plan after high school and college. The things that I learned in this program were math skills and English skills from the teachers and some of the students.

Growing up as the son of a rural Iowa veterinarian, I got my first experience in a medical field while riding along with my dad on calls, and from an early age my interest was piqued. It was the first of multiple experiences that pointed me toward a career in physical therapy.

I am currently a student at Barton Peveril college studying: Biology , Psychology and Sociology. I chose these subjects because I enjoy science and I have a particular interest in child development and behaviour,due to these interests I am keen to pursue a career in education as a primary school teacher. I particularly enjoy psychology, so far we have investigated: child development and behaviour. Within this we learnt how children of different ages are able to learn different things at different stages. For example a child does not acquire the cognitive ability to conserve until over the age of seven. This is where they understand that something stays the same in quantity even though its appearance changes.I found this particularly interesting because younger children would think that the amount has changed because the appearance has changed.

I believe I am a goal orientated student who work hard in order to achieve excellent results in everything I do be it in terms of education, volunteering, and CCA. I am highly motivated to learn something new and very eager to upgrade my knowledge and skills. I hope with the knowledge and skills that I continuously learn, I will be able to use it in the near future. In addition, I am able to work under pressure and organize my time well. I also have a very strong sense of commitment, where I can work initiatively on my own or in the groups.

Growing up, education was not the first priority in my family. Education always took a backseat to helping my mother who is mentally and physically disabled and my 10 siblings. By the time I was 18 years old, I was able to administer my mother’s insulin shots, give my mother the correct dosage of her medication and when she would have a seizure attack, I knew how to calm her down. I found comfort in knowing that I could assist my mother, and when we would go to the doctor for her checkups, it was always good reports. Unexpectedly, my father slipped into a diabetic coma for over 3 months, before passing away from kidney failure years after. In addition, my older brother was sentenced to life in prison with no parole. Everything seemed to go down hill from there. I started getting bad grades, hanging out with a bad crowd. My interest for anything started to slip away. There was a particular moment where I was sitting in my car at the beach, angry about my father’s death, and I thought to myself, “what could I do to make things better”, and it was then I had realized that I couldn’t change what has happened to my father, nor my brother, but I can change what is happening to me. In turn, this realization and being involved with my mother’s health, the motivation given to me by family, peers, and teachers all led me to want to pursue success though my greatest

“A teacher takes a hand, opens a mind, and touches a heart”. The Prairie Meadows scholarship would definitely help me pursue in my future education which will help me get to my ideal career of being a teacher. Becoming a teacher is my dream job, I want to be able to help people for the rest of my life.

While writing a compelling college essay may seem to be a daunting task at first, I believe that the key to generating a unique and moving topic is dedicating effort early in the writing process to personal reflection on your goals and motivations. Often, in writing personal statements for colleges and other applications, I set aside time to dedicate to focused reflection about events or moments in my life that illustrate my values or identity. In terms of the mechanics of an effective personal statement, I typically utilize the “zoom in, zoom out” method, which involves recounting a specific anecdote early in the essay, and then demonstrating how this anecdote contains lessons that apply to greater aspects of your motivation or identity. Through

I don't know if life wants to give me more experience about what I'm learning in class, but I have to add this. Today December 2, 2015 at 12:45pm I got a ticket for leaving my car at the time they were cleaning the street. My fine is $74.00 they give me 21 days to pay that if not I'm going to have to pay more. I can not believe I got a ticket, this is my first ticket and I feel terrible. Growing up sucks now I'm going to be extra careful and read the
