I have had a lot of good educational experiences so far in my life. If I had to narrow it down to just one I think the most memorable one was when I won my schools spelling bee competition when I was in elementary school. I worked hard for weeks before the contest with my mom and dad and winning filled me with a sense of accomplishment and I was able to connect all my dedication and hard work to my success.
I think my most unfortunate educational experience took place at the end of my freshmen year of high school. I had just been diagnosed with cancer and was told that I had to stop attending school. My parents and I asked my school and my teachers to work with me in giving me assignments so I could still keep up but unfortunately they weren’t as willing to help with my situation and so they decided to fail me for the last quarter of school. That experience made me aware that even though I wanted to be able to learn and succeed in life; other people aren’t as willing to help me in reaching my dreams.
