Personal Narrative: Ms. Bishop As A Role Model

When I came to the woodlands christian academy, I was awkward, quiet, and had a low self-esteem. We had moved from Colorado and I wasn't handling the change all too well. Where I expected to find loneliness, I found camaraderie and open arms. I made great friends and discovered amazing role models. When Ms. Bishop first arrived at the school, I did not have a high regard for her. But within a month, I found myself looking forward to her class. She has an attitude that just draws people to her. Her devotion to Christ is always as clear as a bell, shown through her kindness and honesty, and she is constantly inspiring others to be more Christ-like as well.

Bishop has definitely helped me develop as a writer. At first, I was really scared to really put a lot of effort in my work because I was scared of what other people would think.

I know Ms. Bishop wants me to succeed, she wants my best every time. She will ask me how I think I could improve, what I think could be done to make this paper meritorious. All teachers want their students to succeed in school and in life, but I believe that she has surpassed them all in terms of the dedication and effort she puts out to help us. Thank you for all you have done for us Ms.
