Before talking about my history, I have to say that my ancestral history is what prejudiced in my values as a good human being. From generation to generation, my ancestors passed down values such as dignity, respect, honesty and etc. Without them, I have to say that I would not exist today as a good human being. The American cities included in my history are Rocky River and Lakewood. Those two cities are located in Ohio. All my ancestors were born and lived in India. My history will include 3 generations.…
During my educational journey specifically at the high school, my goal was to be a best student in our year group. But I could not achieve it. I could not achieve it because, I thought I could do all my academical alone. I could not management my time well and also reframe myself from leadership and other peer responsibilities.

According to Michelle Akers, “I think the challenge is, to take difficult and painful times and turn them into something beneficial, something that makes you grow.” Just like every human being, I have had my fair share of challenges to face. My parents were born and raised in Mexico. Being from the type of family both my parents had, education was not an option and no importance was taken toward it. They both dropped out of high school and began to work in factories to help their families with financial problems. They realized how hard it was to earn a living and to maintain a family without a proper education. When I was four years old and my sister was nine, my parents made the decision to send us to Brownsville, TX for a proper American education.…
I came into Writing with 39B with the same goal I came into Writing 39A: to become a better writer. Mastering my writing skill has always been a challenge for me, yet I never give up when I encounter an obstacle; I work diligently to overcome my challenges.

“Read the second paragraph, Franyeli,” my science teacher called. My hands started shaking, and my body started getting really warm. I didn't know if I could read the paragraph, I didn't know any words in English, and I knew if I read everybody would make fun of me. So, I shook my head. “Just try,” she said, and I started reading. On my third word, I already could hear my friend laughing. I felt tears going down my cheeks and my heartbeat started rising. Why me? Why does it have to be so difficult? I do everything that I can, but this isn't my place. This is not my language. This is not me.…

Challenges that I am experiencing are finical needs and time availability.

I have demonstrated determination in school when I have stayed up late to finish a project well instead of mediocre. I have also demonstrated determination because as a competitive rock climber I have spent weeks working on moves on a climb that was hard for me. I have also shown honesty when I have talked to my teachers about getting help on things I am not sure about or need help with. I have also done this in track when I have talked to my coach about things I need to work on, or things that are hard for me and how to improve them. I have demonstrated time management when I have been using my free block to do homework for the week so I do not have no when I get home from practice.…
As I am looking at my son, I’m thinking about my five-year goals. In five years, my son will be five years old and he’s going to be ready for kindergarten. I would like to work in a Head Start or similar daycare program.

By working hard to earn good grades, learning more about the field to become an excellent preschool teacher,…
