Who do you admire the most and why? I admire my dad the most. He has always taught me to be true to what I believe in and not let others take advantage of my kind heart. He had also taught me things in life are earned not given and if I want something I have to go out and get it.
What teacher had the biggest influence on you and why? Mr Scmidt had the biggest influence on me because he has always been there to catch me when I fall. Whether it is telling me what I don’t want to admit and giving me advice. Or the many times he was there to listen to me rant and even been there to let me just sit in his room and cry it out. He is one of the reasons I have decided to pursue teaching because I want to help kids and be there for them like he was always there for me.
