How Did Mrs Hollenbaugh Impacted My Life
There are different people in the world who have impacted students’ life. In my 9 years of school, there has been one teacher that I really loved and she really impacted on my life by the way she handled things and how she lived her life. Her name was Mrs. Hollenbaugh. She impacted my life because she would always encourage us to stick to our dreams and also because she would take responsibility unlike some people and own up to her mistakes. But she would learn from that mistake and become a better person by not doing that mistake again.

The first reason why Mrs. Hollenbaugh impacted my life because she told us she constantly made mistakes. But she took those lessons from her mistakes to make her a better person. She would always tell

    A person who has had a significant influence on me in my life would have to be my former foster mother, Miss Barbara Pratt. Ms. Pratt was a foster mother to many children before myself and she had had wonderful success with most of them. I had been in an extremely abusive relatives home before I had been placed in Ms. Pratt’s home. When it was discovered that I was in an abusive home I was first placed in a group home in Cincinnati. Social Services worked very hard to find me a home that would help me adjust to a ‘normal’ life as quickly and easily as possible. They found the home my older sister had been placed in, they contacted Ms. Pratt and I was placed in her care.…

    I have had multiple influential people in my life, but I'm not going to say my parents or a great teacher, but rather someone closer to my age. Andrew Calton, a good friend and great influence. Andrew helped me “get back on my feet” when I was scared to kayak. I would stay on the lake and not go on rivers because I had no confidence in myself. Late at night he and Jack White, another good friend, came to my cabin at camp and told me there was a spot on a trip and he wanted me to go. I went on the trip and the fact that they wanted me to go boosted my confidence. We went on harder rivers I had never been on and I did not swim, or bail out of by boat once.…

    When you think of someone influential in your life it’s usually someone very close to you. To a child it’s usually a superhero or one of their parents. To me this is not the case. Kate Janke, a music teacher and theatre arts instructor at the high school of Park Center, is one individual who has changed me as a person, and made me who I am today. Ms. Janke’s qualities of directing in the theatre program, teaching the subject of music, and having an open, down to earth type of personality helped shape me to be who I am today.…

    Teachers have a substantial impact on students, myself included, due to the significant amount of time they spend with them. Teachers verse their students on the topic of their expertise, but they also help them grow as people. While learning how to convert mass to moles, moles to moles, and moles to mass can prove useful if an individual wants to become a chemist, the work ethic gained from finishing assignments before their inevitable deadlines proves most useful. Aside from work ethic, students learn how to persevere when faced with failure, how to be compassionate, how to be patient, and how to be creative yet efficient to complete the task at hand. The school environment allows students to gain qualities like these because teachers push…

    What does coming of age mean? Merriam-Webster defines it as "the time when a person becomes an adult," but is there more to the phrase than the dictionary says? I sought to answer that question as I sat down in my sunroom. The room wasn't very interesting. It had a stiff carpeted floor, beige walls, and a couch with a pattern of black and white that smeared together to form quite a dull gray. While I got ready to interview, my siblings were tidying up the often messy room. I was anxiously waiting for mom to come down. My mother was currently upstairs, probably changing or putting on makeup. She knew I had to go somewhere soon, so she was trying to be as fast as possible. Eventually, Mom came down and entered the sunroom. She grabbed…
