Hey friends 🤗
Today I've decided to participate in the @hivenaija prompt for this week.
Below is the question for the week:
What kind of student are/were you in school?
I really love this question because it reminds me of my experiences in school, and it has helped me to reflect on the things I did then.
School life is fun, there are many types of students you'll meet and interact with. In this post I'll share what type of student I was. You might want to keep reading...
It's been over four years I graduated from high school, and I can what i enjoyed most was the later part of school, that is From SSS1-3. It was at thus point that I started picking up and improving greatly in my communication with others, having more math knowledge and all...
To talk about the type of student I was, I'll cover the following aspects:
- Academic Performance
- Study Habits
- Extracurricular Activities:
- Relationships with Peers and Teachers:
- Growth and Learning:
- Challenges and Successes
Academic Performance
I believe everyone is intelligent in his own aspect, I am too. In my early primary school days, I already knew how to read and write but I would not do so in school, I was a very timid child and that affected my grades. But I would do very well at home, I loved reading aloud whenever I was home. But In my later primary school l, i was more open to read in class, I would even volunteer to read out literature'ls to the whole class.
My position then in class used to be from 4th-7th out of 24 pupils.
In my late secondary school I started to take 1st to 3rd position because I loved the math teacher and only then I started to solve a lot of math problems, something I found most difficult in my Junior high school. So my grades improved very much!
Study Habits
I also began studying harder in my late secondary school, it was then that I took study very seriously on my own, and because I want to compete and make it with As in my result.
Physics was my worse subject but I would still pass it in exams, because I'll exert myself more to read it and solve with formulas, though I used to score the lowest in it.
Math exams was my best in high school, i even helped others solve their math problems, sometimes they also help me though
Extracurricular Activities
I hated this part a lot in school, especially debates, I didn't like engaging in debates but it used to come up as extra curriculum activities in school.
Relationships with Peers and Teachers
I became more open to communication in senior high school, I was more reserved before this school level.
I made friends with my teachers in this level and even till today I still chat with them.
Things are more fun when you have friends, so is school!
Growth and Learning
My approach to learning improved greatly as I grew up, I would study on my own and learn things on my own, i would ask my teachers for clarification on where I didn't understand especially my math teacher. Growing and learning was fun at this point!
Challenges and Successes
I'm happy I learnt everything I know now!
My greatest challenge was being introvert but I'm happy I slowly overcame it and achieved a lot of success in my grades and academics.
Thank you dear reader for staying till this point, also thanks to @deraa for this nice prompt. I'm happy to share my experience!
See you next time 🤗
