It's my birthday today and I've been able to enjoy almost all of these things in the past 24 hours. I'm going to the zoo tomorrow and I'm probably going to my favorite restaurant in Scottsdale too. I'm very excited. I've been working on homework for the last few hours, and although the homework part might not be my favorite, I'm looking forward to it paying off in the end.
I'm going to school to become a math teacher! I absolutely love math with a passion. I love tutoring people and watching them succeed. I love making people realize that they don't hate math, they just hate how it has been presented to them. I always believe that thinking about math in logical terms will help break down the problem and make it so much easier to solve. I can't wait to have a class full of students that I can help to excel in math!
I'm a huge math nerd, but I also love Spanish. I would love to be fluent in it and to be able to communicate with more people than I am able to communicate with now. I've taken many Spanish courses, but it's really the speaking part that gets me nervous and flustered. Even though it is difficult, I love it and do my best to pronounce the words correctly.
I'm headed out to the rest of my day with a big smile on my face and intentions to continue doing things that I love. Happy Un-Birthday to you! Or Happy Birthday if it happens to be yours as well! Here's a nerdy joke for you!
Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteIt's inspirational to hear someone speak about math the way that you have. I, personally have struggled with it throughout my entire life and continue to do so. I am coming to the end of the road of educationally required math courses, and I am eager for that. Oddly enough, I've taken multiple spanish classes throughout my education and have struggled in them as well. Funny how some people click with certain subjects and some just don't.
Thank you for commenting! I saw that you plan to become an Early Education Teacher. What grade are you hoping to teach, and what is your favorite subject?
DeleteI really like math as well and it is great to hear you are going to school to become a teacher some day. Although it involves a lot of time and commitment, I know you will be able to achieve it. Hope you also spent your birthday well and had an awesome weekend.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jesus! The effort that I am putting into making my dream of becoming a math teacher come true is unbelievable. It requires a lot of determination and knowing that I'm really going for something that I believe in. When you know your purpose in life, there's no stopping you!
DeleteShayla--Good start to your blog. Your writing flows well, your personality is starting to come through, and you present some interesting ideas. You have pretty good discussion happening, but make sure you are working to connect YOUR topics to your audience that doesn't know you. Make sure to create significance for them. Pretty good visual appeal as well. You need to follow all the blog set up instructions on Canvas to turn off "word verification".
