My Writing Experience

Growing up, I didn’t have much. My father was a high school drop out, and my mother was away in the Navy. What I did always have however, were stories and books, and lots of them that were read to me. Almost every night my grandma or my aunt would sit down and read me a story as I feel to sleep. I became attached to the books, knowing them by the contents inside and the front covers, even memorizing a few of them by heart. I never really thought about the magic behind it, or was thankful that I had these people who made me appreciate stories, books and reading. I didn’t feel anything like that again until my 7th grade year with my English teacher Mr. Solis.
Mr. Solis had this calm warming energy and charisma that dispersed over the class as he taught us. Making lessons fun and easy to understand, as well as going farther than most teachers would to ensure that their students understood the assignment and did well in his class.
One day, we were learning about descriptive language and how stories are made interesting, we were given a challenge to see who could write the best

I would like to be able to be like Mr. Solis, my grandmother, and my other English and creative writing teachers, and spark that magic love of reading and writing, and being able to become absorbed in these imaginary worlds that we and others create. My career goal is to find a way to inspire students to love reading and writing, but also to interpret things on their own and use creativity to write and convey stories and ideas. As an educator, I would set out to be the best I can be by engaging my students and helping them understand my lessons, to be able to apply them to the real world, and inspire them to do great things and act as great people. I believe my innate charisma and talent with working with others would be an excellent tool when it comes t teaching and inspiring
