Communication:

The easiest methods of communication for me are reading and listening.  I am very good at analyzing texts and writing notes from a presentation. Furthermore, I’m good at memorizing notes. I like to express my understanding and ideas through various types of projects. When completing a project, I usually contribute by telling my ideas to the group members. In the future, I want to become a better public speaker because it will increase my overall confidence. In addition, I would like to improve my writing skills because it will help me articulate in detail my ideas. I want to be able to possess a wide variety of advanced vocabulary to make my writing more interesting. Having an accurate structure for writing is very significant since it will be accessible and clearer to read. I will accomplish this goal by taking Composition 11 and practicing during the summer break.

Critical and Reflective Thinking:

Personal Awareness and Responsibility:

When I feel discouraged, I usually take a short break, then focus on the project again. Sometimes watching a motivation video inspires me. If I receive a bad mark for my performance, I will practice more for the next assignment or test. I usually complete study guides in preparation for a difficult exam. If I don’t fully understand a subject, I ask my peers or teachers and keep progressing.

Here are some of my learning goals for the upcoming years.

French:

One of my learning goals is to become a fluent French speaker. I will achieve this goal by enrolling in French 11 and taking a summer course. Learning how to speak more than one language will be significant for university and beyond.

 

Education:

I value the importance of education because it will be significant for my future careers. Education is significant since it helped me improve my knowledge and allowed me to have a better understanding of the world. I will improve by taking advanced courses in school.

Volunteering:

Currently, I volunteer for the SPCA at our school. We have completed various bake sales, cards, and created donation bins. Looking ahead, I want to have a wider range of volunteering jobs.

Be Active:

In the upcoming years, I want to be more active by snowboarding and windsurfing. These sports are a great way for me to reduce stress and have a healthy lifestyle. Playing sports is a substantial process of being active. It has been proven that it can improve sleep, create healthy bones and muscles, and enhance the fitness of a person. It can also lead to better marks in school.
