Judging Someone: Does It Right To Do?

Improved Essays
I learned that judging someone is not right to do. Everyone can judge quickly, but that gives them no right to judge. We have all judged before, and that is not a good thing to do. Everyone judges and see’s them as facts about the person that we don’t even know. Judging people is not going to help us get anywhere so why do we judge? I have learned not to judge someone based on what we see and hear when the rumors could be false.
When school started back, we met the new choir director. When I walked into her room, it looked as if someone had torn down the old room. I immediately looked at my new choir director and judged her because of the stories I had heard. She was a redhead who looked very serious about her job. The first day, we had around twenty five people in the choir

Partain and how she acts. The choir kids learned that if we do something wrong, correct it and not complain about it. We all figured her out and tried to solve her perplexing ways as the year went on. Mrs. Partain taught us new warm-ups, and new music that we had never heard of before. It was a new experience for us because we had never sang new songs at Veteran’s day or even at one of our concerts. We did not know what to expect out of her this year. Mrs. Partain is full of so many surprises, she knows when to act funny, and when to be serious. During her first year, she had to write some people up, and she kicked some out of the classroom. I thought that we should all give her another chance to show that she really wanted to teach us and show us how to write solfege and how to read music without playing the piano. I had heard so many bad things before Mrs. Partain gave us, the students, a chance to get to know her. I really judged Mrs. Partain harshly for what she did before she was teaching us. I learned that I should not have judged Mrs. Partain like that, because deep down inside, she is a beautiful woman who loves to teach

    Wednesday, September 16th, 2015 I did my observation of Paul Dunbar Middle School. Some of the first things I noticed when I entered the school was how enormous the school’s population is and how the school was mostly Hispanic and African American students. I arrived at the front desk and was asked by the assistant principal what was my preference of classroom. She then proceeded to take me the section of the school where the ESE classes are held. ESE stands for exceptional student education classes.…

    In this essay, Gould describes the performance of "Madam Jeanette" conducted by Wilhousky. Returning to his old high school chorus after thirty years, Len and Gould reminisce in their diverse and musically-talented childhood. Comparing his chorus to the one in that time, Gould recognizes that at a young age, students cannot put the right amount of emotion into the music. Along with this, the number of male participants has dropped drastically, and try-outs may no longer be necessary as the ratio of girls to boys is outrageously uneven. With these setbacks, Gould wonders if the students have put the excellence of Wilhousky aside.…

    My first memory at North Carolina Governor’s School West is of crying next to my parents on a bench under a giant tree. It was move-in day for the five-and-a-half-week session, and I was already sure that they would be the worst weeks of my life. I was terrified; I knew no one except two students from my high school, who were rising juniors and to whom I had never spoken before. After that stressful first day, I fell asleep unsure of how I could make it on my own in a place filled with such talented, intelligent, and unfamiliar people. A week later, I knew that Governor’s School would be one of the most treasured experiences of my entire life.…

    In the stories “The Lesson” by Toni Cade Bambara, and “The Struggle to be an All American Girl” by Elizabeth Wong, and the poem “Indian Boarding School: The Runaways” by Louise Erdrich, each of the writers focus on the positive and negative aspects of education. While part of the setting for Louise Erdrich’s poem and Elizabeth Wong’s story take place inside an actual school, the setting for Toni Cade Bambara’s story doesn’t take place inside a school; however, for all three stories, the characters in them are taught very important lessons. When I think about the three readings it reminds me that we have important lessons in our life that we have to learn from. Everyone has a lesson they have to learn in life no matter what it is…

    Perspective A discourse community is a social group or can be something that inquires shared values, practices, or can even share the same language. A speech community, however; is not the same thing as a discourse community; a speech community is a community that shares the knowledge of rules for the conduct and interpretation of speech. (WaWpg.219) Defining a discourse community can be hard due to the range of different types of discourse communities. Examples of a discourse community would be a church group, sports team, work scene, and even the neighborhood skater group.…

    Cathedral Observation

    The student has acquired commendable sight reading and musicianship skills through his work as a choral scholar at the Cathedral. However this work has imposed problems upon the voice such as a relatively straight tone and breathiness. Richard's lesson was fluidly structured to attempt to cover as many aspects of singing as possible. I think having a general lesson plan that is fluid and able to be adjusted for each student means that the student can have a clear goal and not lose concentration, as the activity is changing. The student seemed fully engaged in the lesson and was receptive to Richard's teaching style.…

    When the word “home” is defined in a dictionary you are given definitions like “the place in which one’s domestic affections are centered” or “any place of residence or refuge” but to me home means so much more.

Theatre transports me to places I couldn’t dream of otherwise and two years ago, I was taken to a place that would change my life forever and theatre transformed to the place I call home.

    The experience that I would use to display all of these personal qualities would be my first semester at Miami University. I chose this experience because it has taught me to become comfortable within the uncomfortable and create an environment where I am able to adapt quickly to my surroundings. My first semester at college has made me become more independent, willing to push outside of my comfort zones, open-minded, and able to persevere through isolation. Throughout my first semester at Miami University, I’ve learned to become more independent, through most of the daily responsibilities that I hold.…

    Why People Judge

    People can think bad of you just by the way you look for example ”What do you think of when you look at me a woman of faith, an expert even a sister or oppressed, brainwashed, a terrorist or just an airport security delay”(Mogahed). People judge the way you look and assume you are what they think you are. Just because you’re from a different religion and is from a country where the bad guy in the news is from doesn't mean you are bad too. You need to know the person before you can even judge how they are. They are human too, and are nothing different from you they just look different not everyone looks the same and that's what makes us different.…
