    1. Why do you want to be a Writing Fellow, and what will you bring to our program? From kindergarten, I was always one of the academically puzzling students; I would receive perfect grades on essays while failing math exams. My teachers just assumed I was a right-brained youngster.

The older I grew, the more apparent it became that I had a learning disorder -- not just

    that had the most impact on me would be my previous English 101 professor. This professor has given me a new outlook on writing.
