Ms. Battistella

Improved Essays
SL: Reflection Ms. Battistella is a wonderful person and I had a splendid time with her. We grew so much closer and I learned more about her. I could relate to her in so many ways that was wasn’t on my mind. She is one of my favorite teacher when I was in elementary school and taught me about life lessons,like to not focus on the pass or dream about the future, just for now focus on the present. Also, she encouraged and inspired people to do better and always say to kids that there is no such thing as a bad kid, but a kid that had made bad choices. I am grateful to have this project to build a strong relationship with Ms. Battistella which I think could last for a long time. Ms. Battistella’s difficulties with her parents not really caring if she went to college touched me on how lucky I am to have support and encouragement which is an essential role in life.

For example, when she told me that her parents never really cared if she went to college. I was surprise,because she taught us so much inspiring facts that I would have thought she got at least some support from her parents about school. To add on, she went to several colleges after high school and got her master’s degree in teacher, In her free time, she would bake delicious pastry treats, golf, practice photography, read, and watches movies. One of the movies that she watched was where her favorite word came from, inconceivable. She traveled to Hawaii twice and next time she’s planning to go to the historical, stunning,Italy. Additionally, Ms. Battistella had a pretty hectic life with her siblings always arguing with her parents and always doing the chores for her brothers which I could relate to having three brothers and being the only girl. With her passion of teaching, she became a teacher in an elementary schools and is enjoying her life with her 2 kids and

    It is a great pleasure to recommend Rachel Sitasz for admission to the Edward Hospital Student Volunteer Program. She is one of the most empathetic, kind, and exceptional humans I have encountered in my 14 years of teaching. I teach Rachel in my 8th grade advanced ELA class. Her academics, character, innate curiosity, intrinsic motivation, ethical standards, and unwavering desire to give back, have put Rachel in a class of her own.

    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.…

    Governor’s School Last summer, I attended governor's school west where three hundred and twenty-five bright and open-minded students from all across North Carolina gathered for five and a half weeks in a college campus setting. To me, this was a big milestone in life that changed me for the better. We left our cozy lives of families and friends to start with a clean slate with strangers we’ve never seen in our lives. At first, we thought of it as a sacrifice of our summer to glamorize our college application, but throughout the program we experienced things that exceeded beyond our expectations.…

    And Still We Rise by Miles Corwin 1) In this book there was two teachers, Toni Little and Anita Moultrie. These two teachers had different styles of teaching their class.

This way she would be able to see which students were dedicated to school or which ones where just there to be there and not even pay attention.…
