She received a lot of criticism about her writing. It was also hard for her to write in a language that she didn’t grow up with. In my summary response essay I am…

be when we grew up. I remember my teacher asking me after my presentation why I wanted to be an educator, and I simply shrugged and said I had a feeling it was something I should do. There was no rhyme or reason to why I had felt this need, only a simple thought towards my future that most children have.
