QuestionsResponses
What is your favorite activity or subject in school?History.
What is your least favorite subject in school?Math (still like it tho).
What are your "best" subjects?All of them.
What subjects are difficult for you?None of them.
What are your favorite games or sports?I like Undertale and Deltarune, both made by a man named Toby Fox. He is a brilliant man with an unnatural talent and friendly attitude and a love for fan creations. I also play a lot more games I enjoy than that. Cuphead, Hollow Knight, Slay the Spire, Friday Night Funkin\', Pokemon, Dicey Dungeons, Downwell, Undertale / Deltarune fan games, and occasionally Fortnite or Overwatch. A few more are worth mentioning, like card games such as Yu-Gi-Oh, spades, blackjack, and Uno. Overall. These are some of my favorite games.
If you could learn about anything you wanted to, what would you choose to learn about? Be specific. (For example: science-fiction writing, meteorology, architecture, Shakespeare, Africa.)Honestly, I want to LEARN about a LOT of things, the human psyche. Game development, culinary arts (my current program), therapy, how to be a defensive lawyer, YouTube content creation, writing a book... I could go on a tangent to my list of things and ideas! But. I won\'t because I don\'t have forever.
What are three things you like to do when you have free time (besides seeing friends)?I like roleplay, which demonstrates writing, acting, and storytelling. I also enjoy gaming because it\'s simply fun! A bunch of games remain unplayed and unexplored. I must see everything. And finally. I like cooking when I feel like it, it\'s nice to help other people or myself with my cooking!
What clubs, groups, teams, or organizations do you belong to? Include both school activities and those not Sponsored by the school.
Have you ever taught yourself to do something without the help of another person? If so, what?I\'ve taught myself how to be the best me I could be. That\'s all I could ask for. And nobody else asked that of me. Because I am the only person who determines what I want to be. What I will become, and what I believe in. That is simple enough.
If you were going to start a book club, what kinds of books would your club read?We would probably read whatever books people in the club wanted to read, decided by democracy!
If people were to come to you for information about something you know a lot about, what would the topic be?How to be as loud as possible.
If you could plan a field trip for learning, where would you go?I would go to Canada. To visit the place and learn about Canadian people and their culture!
When you’re using the computer, are you usually playing games, doing homework, doing research, visiting Web sites, visiting chat rooms, shopping, exchanging email, programming, or some other activity?I usually like to visit chat rooms. Because my goal in life is to help as many people as I can, and chat rooms are a good way to do that! To spread my influence across the world is incredibly effective at helping others.
If you could interview an expert on any subject, what subject would you like to talk to someone about?The subject I would like to talk about is how the human psyche works! How the brain operates.
What careers are you currently interested in?Culinary arts, joining the army, cosmetology, YouTube, Twitch, motivational speaker, and game developer.
What helps you learn? (For example, a hands-on activity, reading, taking notes, or reading out loud.)A hands-on activity helps me learn the best because I can remember the experience in the classroom and what happened instead of just staring at my notes to study.
What makes learning more difficult for you? (For example, lectures, lots of writing.)Teachers writing and moving on too fast makes notes hard to make because if they go too fast then I can\'t write what they wrote.
Think of a great teacher you’ve had. Describe what made this teacher so terrific.Ms. Kefalos is a phenomenal teacher because I could be personable with her. Have a heart-to-heart. she was like the mother I never had honestly. Because my actual mom? She\'s insane. But this isn\'t about my mother. No, her conspiracy theories don\'t matter here. But now I go onward.
What else would you like me to know about you as a learner?Thank you.
