I want to learn about engines and cars so that when I get out of high school I can be a mechanic and work at a car shop.
In order to do that I need to take some auto mechanic classes because I think I’ll like working on cars, and then I could fix up my car.
Voices from the classroom
If I could tell the teachers one thing about me that
I need in order
to learn, it would be that in need more time on reading and writing because
I’m an ESL student, and
I still need a little help on assignments in order to understand what we are doing and what we will be working on.
I don’t have any ESL classes, but the teacher is thinking about putting me in one next year just to get some help. I’m doing my best on learning the language and practicing every day.
I want to learn about how to read faster, so that it can also help me in my other classes too because I’m not a very good reader.
If I could change the world I would help kids get a good education, so that kids don’t have to be working for 7 dollars an hour knowing that they can do and be better.
If I could
change the world I would make it to where everyone was a lot
less judgmental so that everyone was a
little less sad.
In order to do that every parent should teach their kids would be nicer. I would make it to where there was only judgment when it concerns someone’s safety. I want to change the way people look at each other. You should never judge a book by its cover. In other words never judge a person by their looks OR by what you hear about them.
If I could change the world, I would definitely make animal shelters better. Stray animals are a big “problem” and I feel horrible calling the animal shelter to come pick them up if they are perfectly healthy because I am a big animal person and hate to see them go to a place where if they are not adopted in a certain amount of time they are put down.
Just because the animal doesn't have a home doesn't mean they deserve death. More than likely when people adopt dogs or cats, they pick the youngest, healthiest, and cutest. What happens to the old, fat, and ugly ones? They just get put down; how fair is that? What if when you’re old, fat, and ugly a nursing home didn’t pick you? They’d have to put you down? That doesn’t seem fair at all. Animal shelters should have more funding, so they can shelter more animals for longer in order to give stray animals longer lives.
I want to learn about
how to write speeches so I can become a motivational speaker. In order to do this I need some good writing classes and speaking classes.
I am very good at speaking in front of people. I enjoy it actually. I also
enjoy helping people. I
want to learn about becoming a counselor for teens or older children. I really enjoy talking. I am very good at it. If I were to have any job though it would have to be a motivational speaker.
When I speak in front of people I get a rush like surgeons get when they make their first cut into a chest cavity. I have only spoken in front of a group of 10 people for a speech class my freshman year. I really enjoyed it! If I were to have anything in this world it would have to be the honor of speaking in front of a school. It would be so awesome to be able to do that. And that is what I want to learn about.
If I could change the world, I would change the income of workers. I believe that you should work for your money. You should have to go to school and get a degree in order to get more money than you do at a fast food joint. If you want something you go out there and work for it. So that you can make the income you deserve in order to pay for your bills, car, clothes, and whatever you want.
If I could tell teachers one thing about me that I need in order to learn, it would be that I just want people to shut up and leave me alone, so I can do my work. I need to do my work to pass my classes. Because I work better alone.
i want to learn about the navy so that way I can be ready for what they tell me. Then I could be a navy seal son; that way I can do my best to become what I really want to be, so I can take care of my parents and help them financialy and physically .
If I could tell teachers
one thing about me that I need in order to learn, it would be that I am a
hands on learner. I need to be
working with my hands and moving around. I can’t just sit down and write for a whole class.
In order to focus I need to move around be more hands on with paperwork homework and anything else we do in class. Because I like to be a more hands on person ☺
