Personal Narrative: I Am Good In Math

116 Words1 Page

I think I am good at math because when it's something new we are learning about I memorize the steps in solving the problems and then try it on my own and I am able to do it with not trouble. what I do to learn how a new app or a video game work is I test it out without actually trying and then I see how the game works and then I keep practicing the game to get better at it. What was different for me last semester that I really wasn't practicing as much at home like I do in class so the only time I would practice the problems was in class

    This year I tried out Spanish and even though I didn't do so well and it wasn't my favorite thing I managed to pass with a B which I'm pretty proud of myself for. In Math I've learned and refreshed on skills that I either didn't know or already knew but learned more. My Test scores stayed the same which is pretty good considering the tests are harder. Last year I never really had to be serious about studying and pretty much did okay on all tests.

  • Personal Narrative: Why I Decided To Skip Calculus

    Who in their right mind chooses to skip Calculus? I did. The process began when my divorced parents showed up to practice together. They told me there were seats open in the AP AB Calculus class and my school was offering spots to sophomores who had scored above average in their Honors Pre-Calculus class. I would have to skip Calculus.

  • Personal Narrative: My High School Career Accomplishments

    478 Words  | 1 Pages

    Often high school is perceived as a time when a youth finds themselves. While I agree with this, I think it is not only important to figure out who you have been, but also to figure out who you have become and who you will be through growth and maturity. I know that throughout my high school career I have done just that. I have experienced so much since I first walked through the doors to Henderson High School. As a freshman and sophomore, the only major activity that I participated in was Track and Field, which I had been doing since I was 9 and continue to do now. As my junior year comes to an end, I look back on my progress, and I am proud. Recently, I was given a reminder of my newfound involvement when passes for club pictures were handed out. I

  • Personal Narrative: My GPA

    202 Words  | 1 Pages

    Hello, I would like to start off by saying that even though my GPA is not a 3.00 yet, I have 3 remaining classes to complete before I graduate, which means I will work hard as always to ace all three of them, and rise my GPA beyond a 3.00. As I started my college experience, its safe to say I was dazed and bit confused; I did not know what I wanted to study, so my grades were not remarkable, but it was not until I find my calling ( a major in business)  that I realized that I enjoy what I am studying and my grades reflected on it.

  • Personal Narrative: Trigonometry

    650 Words  | 2 Pages

    I'm terrible at math. Trigonometry. Algebra. Geometry. Unlike in other subjects, discrete inequalities and irrational functions just don't process in my brain without some form of flaw standing in their way. For as long as I can remember, it was something that hindered my ability to academically accept myself as an equal to my peers, whom I had always been equivalent with throughout our days of pubescent arithmetic. The transition into high school was really when I was met with the discovery that my struggles were greater than many of my classmates. Although I was still taking the highest levels of math possible for my grade, I was set apart in the classroom. I had to work twice as hard to meet the same expectations as my classmates. This is

  • Personal Narrative: Analyzing The Concepts Of Mathematics

    350 Words  | 1 Pages

    His name was Ethan, a sophomore in Math 3 that did not grasp the fundamentals of PEMDAS. I met Ethan when my teacher assigned me to tutor him after school for extra credit. I didn't know much about him, other than that he was struggling in math. As our session went on, I became more and more frustrated as he struggled with basic concepts of math. As a result, I gave him more homework, so he could practice concepts he didn't understand and told him I expected them done the next time we met. "Did you finish the worksheets?" I asked him the next time we met. He shook his head. "Well maybe it's just the first week" I said to myself. But then came the second week, and third, and fourth.

    My enthusiasm and the strongly committed teachers I have encountered in my life have attributed to my success in math and science. Prior to going onto ninth grade, my Math classes dating back from middle school were never mentally straining. Math appealed to me because in eighth grade, my math teacher, Dr. Christopher, would encourage her class by recognizing our achievements with small rewards such as candies and ice cream passes during lunch. Her actions sparked my interest in math. I have a natural regard for math and science. By breaking down math problems step by step, I can better understand them. ...

    Math is probably one of the only subjects that I have really struggled my whole life or more accurately, all my years being in school. Math has been such trouble and really challenging because I cannot really remember mathematical formulas and problem solving methods. It is actually a real struggle when taking a math test or exam, especially a final exam. Trying to remember all those methods and formulas, it makes it hard to think and focus on finishing up all the problems on time. Even though I am often am

  • Personal Experience: My Experience With Math In High School

    I’ve had my ups and downs with math. My first impression of it was good, but when middle school happened, I came to dislike it. Going into high school, I had no idea what is was going to be like when it came to math. I asked myself the questions, “Was it going to be hard?” or “What are my teachers going to be like?” The answer was that I liked math in high school. It was explained better, and the teachers were fair and reasonable. I came to enjoy it again. College came, and the first math I took was very fun. It was the first time I looked forward to coming to a math class. Basically you never knew what was going to happen until you got to class. It was fun and the teacher was engaging and spirited. My experience with math was initially good,

  • Personal Experience: Subjects in Which I Have Excelled

    586 Words  | 2 Pages

    The subjects I excel in are math and science. Every since I was adolescent, I have always had a keen sense of numbers. This undoubtedly helped a lot with the variety of science classes that utilize math skills. Science, though, is, without a doubt, the subject I excel in the most, and I have my extraordinary great-grandmother to thank for that. Around when I was eight, I found out my great-grandmother had cancer which was gradually making her health decline. Eventually the cancer had spread to her legs and within a time span of a year, she had become a double amputee. Being so close to my great-grandmother, this hit me hard, but I felt no sorrow because I knew she was a strong woman, and, being naive at that age, I hadn't thought this event truly changed her. She was still the same loving, caring, and nourishing great-grandmother that I had known all my life. It wasn't until one day when I spent the night over my great-grandmother’s house that I had heard something out of the ordinary. I heard my great-grandmother groan. This was unusual because I had never heard the sound of pain...

  • Logic Over Emotion: A Personal Decision-Making Analysis

    739 Words  | 2 Pages

    I am fairly confident that I was the best student in my grade at math, and it felt as though I were two years ahead of everyone else. Due to my prowess, I enjoy calculating statistics and chances, weighing each outcome against the others. As I entered high school, I began to lose interest in math and school. Education seemed to be a boring chore, and it got somewhat difficult. In my seventh grade science class, I had received my lowest grade on a test ever, a C+. I had never had to study before high school and it was then that I realized that it was a good idea to try a little bit in school, which is a very logical thing to do in order to maintain a relatively good grade. I rarely study for tests, and when I do study, it is only for about ten minutes. I study for tests that feel unfamiliar or that I can not afford to get a bad grade on. When I study for finals, I primarily study for the classes I have the lowest grade in, and the secondary choices are classes that I believe will have the hardest
