Why I Choose Madera High School

My home is only 35 minutes from the university. Living this close provided me with the choice to live at home and lighten the load of my growing student loans. Going to USI would give me the chance to be more involved in my brother’s life and watch him grow up. Another positive was the ability to have networking connections for my future career in the Evansville area. I plan to stay in Southern Indiana when I am older and attending school in Evansville will provide me with connections to hospitals and therapy departments where I aspire to eventually be employed. The main concern keeping me from deciding right away to transfer, was that I had already signed an apartment lease in Bloomington which I could not get out of. Unless I could find somebody to take over my lease, I would find myself stuck in Bloomington the following

I can still remember coming home from school after an exciting day in the first grade. I would go straight to my room, line all of my dolls up in the floor, and “teach” them everything I had learned earlier that day. But of course, not every child who pretends to be a teacher in his or her early years actually becomes a teacher. So although I enjoyed “teaching,” I never really considered it as a choice for my life-long career.

I have decided to plan to earn a master's degree in psychology and become a licensed marriage and sex psychologist. I have been greatly considering attending Fresno State to achieve my master's degree in psychology, but lately I have been trying to explore different schools in and out of town that may be beneficial for me to consider attending. Even though I am scared to go out of town, or even out of state to attend college, if it means that I will get a better education and become a licensed marriage and sex psychologist then I would be making an illogical decision based on my fears of leaving the comfort of my mom's home. I know that many people look down at such an indifferent career choice, but keeping in mind that my parents support my decision makes it easier for me to look past all the negative outlooks on my career choice and focus on all the great benefits that this

I want to be an aspiring educator. Becoming an educator had been instilled in my mind at a young age. With my determined drive and enthusiastic personality, I will do everything in my power to achieve that. I would definitely state that I am a sufficient at time management. I make enough leisure time for my friends, and family. On the weekends I participate in the steel orchestra at my church. This instrument is indeed a divine way to release stress. In addition to playing the steel pan I also enjoy dancing and singing. I mostly dance for fun however, throughout my high school and middle school years I have participated in the school choir. I attended a performing arts school for both high school and middle; therefore, I was exposed to all the diversity of dancing singing, creative expression and visual art. Growing up it was vital for me to be a well-rounded student; I tried to include extracurricular activities besides school work in to my daily

I choose to attend the University of Florida for the culture of community that exists on the campus. The University of Florida has always been a school that wants its students to succeed, but what is the most interesting aspect is that the students push each other together to achieve their goals. We live in a society where it is a "Man vs Man" world and that only one can succeed. Here at the University of Florida, we challenge those social norms and try to create a pathway that fits for everyone. Here, we just don't have dreams, because as gators, we make those dreams plans and those plans into reality. Being able to accomplish or do something that makes your life fulfilling is what made me want to come to the University of Florida and continue to give back to the place that gave me the chance to improve myself and help others improve too.

To prepare myself for this new chapter in my life, I have taken many steps to help prepare myself for the fall of 2017 at Morehead State. In the spring of 2017, I chose to transfer to a community college to help improve my grades and my GPA. (Seeing it went from a 1.3 to a 2.6).  I have talked with advisors that have helped to map out the rest of my college career to have me reach my goals. I have researched all courses needed for my intended major of Health and Physical Education. I know which credits I have already earned and which of those credits will successfully transfer over. I have taken a closer look and

I’ve always known that I was meant to become a teacher. In the fifth grade yearbook, each child claimed what they wanted to be, although most of these will change with time. Every little girl guessed that they would be a professional dancer, a princess, and other mystical job titles. The space beneath my smiling face read “kindergarten teacher”.

For a long time I didn’t know what I would like to pursue as a career but when I reflected on my life I realized some of my favorite times in life were when I was teaching someone something and when I was learning. In my future career as a high school teacher I will able to do both of those things. Seeing peoples’ eyes light up with interest because they

Learning a new language at my age was a thug, people make fun of you in school if you don’t understand or don’t know how to say something. Only a few people help you. When I lived in Mexico I was always one of the best students and most of the times I was on the honor roll. Without knowing English in this country, I couldn’t the same. I start school here in Houston the 9th grade and my grades were very low, I couldn’t believe that my grades went from 100 to less than 50. Also, I couldn’t do my work, homework and tests because I didn’t understand or I didn't know how to ask. All this situation made me feel so incapable and frustrated. I started to use that frustration and courage to lose my fear and sorrow to ask my teachers and classmates for help. I decided to talk more English than Spanish with people in the stores, malls, and school. During the weekend with my cousins I remember that I used to talk to them in Spanish and they talked to me English so I could learn more vocabulary and how to pronounce the words. Listen to music in English helped me a lot familiarizing my ear to the language too, and using my free time to translate words from Spanish to English to learn more, so I could do better in

In order to understand why I decided to transfer to George Mason University you first have to understand who I am as a person. When I was 19 I made the scariest decision of my life and joined the United States Army, it wasn’t scary to me because I joined in a time of war. It was scary because my whole life people told me I couldn’t or shouldn’t, reason be as simple as because I was a girl or as complicated as me being too compassionate. I joined the Army regardless spending my first few weeks of basic training scared to fail at my dream, but every day I did my absolute best not to. I didn’t fail, I pushed past my fear and defeated the odds I had set against myself, to serve my country for 6 and a half years with three deployments; Being awarded

I always thought I would be a teacher and I would make differences in lives and it would be the greatest experience in the world for me, yet being a teacher wasn’t enough, I had a need to expand my education. I decided that perhaps I needed a new career, however, I felt certain education remained my passion. I began to explore new areas of education and I realized I still want to be a member of a classroom, a school and curriculum. I aspire to guide those leading our classrooms.

In elementary school, we were all asked a question. “What do you want to be when you grow up?” I have always known my answer to that question. I want to be a teacher. The question in the back of my mind, was what kind of teacher. Through my life I’ve met many different teachers, and have had many different experiences, that have helped me find an answer to that question. If not for all of these people and experiences, I don’t know where I would be.

Choosing to go to the University of California, San Francisco was very hard because my family and friends are all here. Moving away is hard for me since it means to let go of the only people that I trust the most. There are advantages of moving far away for example, getting a fresh start, meeting new people, and getting to learn more about the different parts of the United States. The people that choose this University is because they offer one of the best programs in the US. I as well am choosing it because of where it stands for their teaching ability and their reputation. This place is meaningful to me because I have some family members that I have not gotten to see since I was young. It will bring good memories and give me a chance to

I am always willing to going beyond the call of duty and keep improving more and more. I am always willing to going beyond the call of duty and keep improving more and more. I will not be satisfied until I am at the top. I wish to transfer schools for that very reason. To find the school perfect for me and become the very best there. I am a decisive and achievement driven student. I have a passion for leadership. I am a leader of conviction and take bold calculated risks. Success as a leader requires an understanding of the factors that shape individual behaviors. Participants in college are well equipped with an analytical toolbox of skills that helps them solve problems in all areas while advancing their own college careers. Leaders must

Since I was a kid, my biggest dream has been to walk across the stage and get my High School diploma. I came from Honduras three years ago, for a better education. I did not grow up with my parents. After twelve years I reunited with my parents in Houston Tx. On March 26, 2014, I came to Conroe High School without knowing not English. During my first day was not easy, but I found the way to make it easy. The first thing I learned was to understand English when people talks to me. By the time I learned to write English. I’ve worked hard to be where I am today. Actually I got a job after school, but that does not mean I am careless about my credits and classes. Sometimes I was tired but I tried not to miss school. I only have two absences
