Tayler Walters FYS 100 Autobiography My education has been a little bit spread out in the different variety of schools I have attended. I started my adventure in a Bodhi Tree Montessori school.

I anticipate in learning the different ways to effectively deliver messages to the audience. Another style of writing I would likely use is team collaboration.

I was not enthusiastic about practicing, but I stuck with it for nine years. After my lessons stopped I continued to pursue piano as a serious hobby. I have…
