The reason for me to become an ECE is my role model, my mentor Miss Maimoona Masood Ahmed. She was the only person who taught me to see myself as a strong person who could bring change in their own and others lives, and that is why I chose her to be the personality of this artifact to represent my journey to become an ECE. Ever since she taught me, I had this feeling why her ways of teaching attracted me and after much reflecting, it became obvious that she always gave me the respect and importance which helped me to become what I am right now. Being a middle child in a family that was always in my mind, what is my place in this world, and I always thought about the attachment and relationships children develops with important people in their lives. As a middle child I always feel lack of attention and importance from my parents and family but when miss Maimoona took special care to include me in every conversation in class even though i was shy I felt that I could achieve anything. I started to believe in myself and that is the reason why I consider her my role model. …show more content…
I come to understand that even one person with genuine love could make a huge difference in any child’s life because every child is important; therefore, from my teenage years and up till now I want to aspire to be that person. I was a shy student of Miss Maimoona’s class, and hardly participate in any group discussions, yet she remembered me and always called me by my name. That’s what made her different from other professors that she knew all of our names almost instantly, like magic. When my professor called me with my name it positively affects my attitude about the course/her class. I feel more valued and it gives me a sense of

What Has Influenced Me To Attend A Post-Secondary Education Institution? When I was in the fifth grade I had joined West Side Boys & Girls Club they had opened my eyes on how to be friendly and how to respect others around you. They had prepared me on how to include people and how to open up myself and how to get ready for college and what it has to offer me.
I learned how to adapt to the individual needs of students to provide them the best education. Like students with a communication disorder, many of my students would shy away from activities or tasks because of obstacles.

She strengthens her argument by drawing in the audience while not diminishing her credibility in her argument of, teachers need to form relationships with their students to achieve a higher academic rate and self
Within the speech delivered at the convocation of Douglass College at 1977 by Adrienne Rich, one is able to identify how Rich appeals to her audience emotionally through pathos, when she states, “Responsibility to yourself…means insisting that those to whom you give your friendship and love are able to respect your mind” (Rich). Here, Rich conveys how the student must demand appreciation from others in order to develop academically. The quote engages the reader emotionally as Rich enables one to contemplate whether one truly appreciates his or herself as well as if one considers others dependable, when respecting his or her mind. Therefore, the reader is able to comprehend that if he or she truly appreciates their loved one, he or she would

In our advanced 21st century, it is hard to imagine our society as anything short of perfect. After all, we have come a long way from our seafaring ancestors. However, the reality is that despite how we may sometimes avoid seeing it, our society is anything but perfect. A very prevalent issue today is that despite laws being set in place to enforce the equal treatment of men and women, women all over the world today still face poor treatment and discrimination.

The purpose of education is to create the “catalyst”, - the interest, the imagination, the self-confidence, the enthusiasm for further knowledge that helps a person grow beyond what they believe they can be. Education should help develop skills and knowledge, so students can be productive members of society. The more knowledge you have, the more opportunities you have in life. I think back to my childhood and the teachers that made an impact in my life. I want to be that catalyst for students.
