Personal Narrative: How Reading Changed My Life
People deal with problems every day, it could be something as easy to solve or it could be very difficult to solve. No matter whom you are, you will always have a problem to solve or a problem you would like to solve. A problem that I solved when I was little, led me to a problem I would like to solve now that I am older.
Going into first grade I was not at the same reading levels everyone else was at. I could not read at all, it did not really bother me until the class got assigned reading levels. I was put into the lowest level while most of my friends got put into different groups and were allowed to read different books then me. Not long after I was put into the lowest level, a lady came to my classroom and took me to another room to test …show more content…
Olsen. My reading level slowly got better and better. By third grade I was still pulled out of the classroom but instead of just being Mrs. Olsen and me, there were also other kids that struggled with reading too. In the beginning of fourth grade, I was tested to see if I would go back into reading recovery again. I passed the test with reading levels above my grade so I graduated from reading recovery. Mrs. Olsen changed my life because now I love to read and before reading used to make me hate having to go to school. I never thought anyone would be able to make that big of an impact on my life but she did. That made me want to become a teacher and make a difference in someone life like she made in mine. A problem today is that there are tons of students that don’t have the extra help or teachers that are willing to do everything in their power to make that difference for the student. I would like to help solve this problem by becoming a teacher and give my students everything I can to help them and hopefully make a different like Mrs. Olsen made. Not being able to read ended up teaching me to never give up, things take time, and the best way to have a problem solved is to find someone that is willing to help make a difference and stick with it. I found a problem in my life and now I am ready to make a difference and solve that
