I have been currently working at the Glen Ridge Public Library since June 2016. I have worked in the children’s room many times and have been around the children that come in everyday after school. They can see me as a role model because they can see how hard-working I can be and dedicated I am to the job. Once you get into the high school many students start to get jobs and by watching students like me can be a good lesson on how to during that job.

I believe that I’m focus and hard-working which are important traits in order to be a role model. These traits along with dedication, kindness and honesty are also super crucial in order to be a role model for children. Kids such as ones in 5th grade start to realize that they’re going to be in the high school in a few years and they’re going to need some guidance. Someone …show more content…

It helps shape the kids futures with important lessons about getting through high school and different situations they might run into throughout their life. Not only is this program helpful to the children it is helpful to the members of the Heroes and Cool Kids and their peers around them. Not only do they set an example for the kids they set an example for their friends about helping out in the community. Overall, Heroes and Cool Kids is a positive program that helps everyone not just 5th graders.

I think that I would be able to bring a lot to offer to the children about high school and life. As someone who has gone through difficult situations and many awkward stages throughout my time during middle school and high school I can help 5th graders get through those situations the right way instead of the wrong ways. I would also be able to show what high school is really like and how it is not as scary as every little kid thinks. The Heroes and Cool Kids program, I believe, can provide a lot of knowledge for the rest of my years at

    Not Only am I a role model to my classmates,but I am also a role model to my younger family members. I show this through following the rules of where I am at during the time and teaching them the rules along the way. I am also a role model to them by not giving up on my goals and teaching them about the importance of family and how you should spend quality time with the people you love. The third and last reason I exemplify the traits of leadership is because I lead by example in the community. I show good manners like please and thank you along with opening doors and helping other people. If I see someone that is struggling to carry something or if they drop an item and need help picking it up I do not hesitate to step in and help the person in need. I have observed that a simple smile and a friendly gesture of hello can go a long way when being nice to someone to make their day better in anyway I know how to. These are the reasons why I personally exemplify the traits of someone who shows

    Both inside and outside of school, I make it a personal commitment to be a kind, helpful, and respectful role model to others, and I use those character traits to be a successful leader in my community. Kindness can be hard to come by in today’s age, so I pride myself in being a genuinely nice leader. A prime example of this would be my involvement with my dance school, the D’Arcy School of Irish Dance. While I have only been dancing for three years, I have taken the initiative to be a role model to the younger dancers. As being a Senior dancer, it is my responsibility to portray to other students the way one should act at dance class and performances. Instead of guiding others in a harsh and rather “bossy” manner, I instead choose to lead in a much more effective way. This would be

    Who comes to mind when thinking about who the best role model is? Is it a friend? A sibling? Possibly a parent? For me, When thinking about who the best role model to have is, one person in particular comes to mind.

  • My Gender Role Model

    Gender has affected my life in many ways, but most of all I would say that from a young age I was given the impression that part of a woman’s value came from her ability to attract the opposite sex, and due to this mindset for a long time I felt as though I was ugly and difficult to love. There are so many expectations placed upon women based solely on the fact that they are female. Women are meant to be gentle, quiet, and respectful at all times but most of all they are expected to be pretty. Being physically appealing means different things depending on where you live, however, In western society it appears to mean being a tall, skinny, preferably blonde, Caucasian female and if you happen to match this criteria you’ve essentially hit the

  • My Family: My Mother, My Role Model

    Many of us have role models in our lives and to most people role models are athletes and movie stars, but to me a role model is much more. To me a role model is a person who has positively influenced someone in life, and is not a person filled with selfishness and greed. They help shape someone’s personality, and characteristics. They are people who someone can look up to for advice in a hard situation, and know that they will give those words of wisdom. They will never judge our past actions, instead only look to help because they really care. A role model is someone who we should never feel awkward talking to about our problems. A perfect role model for me is my mother. She is a wonderful human being. She’s smart, wise, ambitious, patient and such a loving person. There are no words that can describe my gratitude towards her, but through this essay I will describe some of her characteristics that makes her my role model.
