Improving Self Esteem

How can improving self esteem help in school? How are you going to try to stay postivie to help the kids?

Improving self esteem can help out a lot in school. It can make the school seem to have a better environment. The students self esteem is a major part in school. If a student has a bad self esteem, then it makes it a lot harder to get the student to want to get good grades. Freshmen feel that they can just slack off and not do any work. But, what we are going to do is make it that they have to do their work. I will show them that their work is so much more then 'just a grade.'
To make the kids stay positive, there are a couple things that I will have to do. One thing is, telling them that their grades in their freshman year will affect them their upcoming years. Another thing, is tell them if they have good grades they will be successful in life. But, if they dont get good grades, they will end up not being as successful as they would be with good grades. Another thing is that I will show them that I do care. I will help them out as much as possible. I will encourage them that they will do good if they try.

With the way I am I have forgave many things that I have done in the past. I’ve changed in many different ways when I moved from New Jersey to Florida. I have a positive attitude with many things. I do improve me personal relationships. I tend to not be a follower anymore. Where I used to live I didn’t do such good things because of the people I hung out with. But, now it does not matter who I hang out with or what they do, because I make the decisions I want to make and I do not care about what anyone else thinks. I am always learning new things. That is something I like to do and will do until I can not learn anymore. I dress well, and always will dress well. It is just something I have to do.
Something that I may have to change is getting plenty of rest. I’m always busy and I try to do as much as I can possible in one day.

Freshman

You do not need to dedicate your entire life to a person to give attention. Sometimes all that is required is a few minutes, or time enough to share a compliment. Does some "one" you know need attention - today? Please reflect upon that thought. How will you give your attention to a needed freshman? What are some of the obstabcles you might have to overcome in oreder to give them your attention? Be sure to write 3- 5 paragraphs.

There are many things that I will need to do to help out these freshmen. Some of them do not want anything to do with school, so I will try to encourage them that school is very improtant. I will also tell them when they are doing good or bad. If they are doing good I will let them know this way they can feel goo about themselves. But, if they are doing bad I will try and talk to them and see why they are doing so bad.
Also, I will have to learn to not give them the answers and just help them. I have a tendency to get annoyed and just give out the answers instead of helping. That wont help them. So, I will just see the way they work and see how I can help them. I also will explain to them about how much high school does mean. Tell them thathigh school will be a big part of your life and if you succeed that you will most likely have a better life.
Another thing I could do is make them want to do their work to get good grades. Show them if they get good grades it will be so much easier on them. Also, they will nothave to take the tutoring class anymore. These are some things that I feel about how the freshman thing we are doing.

I am a very helpful and enjoy helping out others. I get good grades and I am a hard working student. I do all my work in school and I will be very successful. I plan to go to college and get a degree to become a doctor.
I am going to help out the freshmans as much as I can when they need it. I also will be helping out with activities in the school. This should be a good experience because when I get older I want to help people out since I want to be a doctor.
I like to joke around with people and just have a good time. When people are not happy I try to pit them into good moods. This is because I do not like seeing people upset. I also like to play basketball and go shopping. Shopping would be my life if I could make it that way. This is why I need a awesome career so I can shop whenever I want.

Attitude

There are many opportunities you can get in your lifetime. But, you need to have a certain attitude to achieve this opportunity. For example, if you want to get an opportunity to get into a certain college and you have to have an interview, you would need to have the best attitude possible. You would have to be nice, outgoing and letting them know that you want to get into their college. Another example of this would be if you wanted to have the opportunity to become a doctor. A doctor needs to have an extremely good attitude towards their patients. They have to have an attitude thats nice and they have to have patience. These are some things that I think would have to do with opportunities and attitudes.
