I hated college when I started it and I still do, but writing this paper made me realize that I need to go college to become something I want to be. I didnt mind writing this paper, but for some reason it wasent my favorite to write, maybe because I could describe things, like i enjoy.
Effects of a college Education
Some people don’t understand the effects a college education could have for them. I am lucky enough to go through this college experience, learning as I go, and realizing what this educational experience will have in store for me. Some effects I know this experience will provide is success in following my dream of becoming a teacher, finally having academic achievement and gaining self confidence in what I do.
The major outcome of my college education is creating my dream of becoming a high school English teacher. College is the only place for me to get my masters degree. At college I will learn how to educate teenagers, understand teenage behavior, and create lesson plans. Becoming a teacher, I can work with people, teach my favorite subject and socialize with people who share the same love as I do. In getting my degree, I will have fulfilled my dream, and have a stable career for the rest of my life.
My entire high school career I never really care about grades, which now has delayed my vision on going to Longwood University. Now, I do have a second chance to have some academic achievement to get to logwood. Going to a community college, makes me want even more to get great grades to get scholarships to the school I want, to actually get into the school I want, and to know that I do understand what I am learning with good grades. College gives me an edge to do better and to learn what I need to learn, to earn the degree I want.
College has allowed me to gain some self confidence. I want to prove to people what I can do, I don’t have to pressure of the high school drama to try and fit in. At college I can finally realize and work at what subjects I am good at and subject’s I’m not so good at. People don’t judge you as much, so now I don’t have to focus all my attention on looks and trying to find a boyfriend. Everything I do in college is for me and me only. Having that self confidence finally helps me through studying, and trying to get good grades, and not worrying so much. College also offers counseling for free so I can fully overcome those types of problems that I do still struggle with.
The effects of a college education, helps me full fill my dream in becoming a high school English teacher, having academic achievement, and gaining self confidence. College does not always have the effect of just learning certain ideas for your career choice. Also college can help with dealing with emotions, and understanding yourself better. College is doing all of these things for me already.
