Children Personal Statements Samples For Students

With fascination I looked amazed at my mother’s first laptop as she brought it home in the first day she bought it. Although I was only four years of age, I understood back then that that was not a toy, but something very serious, something that attracted me. I was too young to understand its mechanisms, but I soon started to turn it on by myself and to enter in my mother’s programs. My fascination for my mother’s laptop grew so much that in my first day of school I told my mother that I want to ...

I was born in 1983 and was raised in Saudi Arabia, which is my country of origin.I also graduated from high school there, earning as high as 87% in my overall grades. I really wanted to prove to my family that their efforts were not in vain. My family values a decent education; they are always supportive and they encouraged me and my two elder sisters to strive to fulfill our educational goals. From 2001 to 2005, soon after graduation, I successfully enrolled in the college of Arts and Education in Taif, Saudi Arabia. I finished a four-year undergraduate program in ...

Tell us about an experience, in school or out, that caused you to rethink or change your perspective. What impact has this had on you?

After graduating from Medical School, I was given the opportunity to be an observer at a Sports Medicine clinic. I was always familiar with the many career paths Sports Medicine can take; but after working with a Kinesiologist, I was at awe of all the further possibilities which the study of movement could actually offer. The field of study actually complements one’s previous academic pursuit and serves the similar purpose of improving the quality of lives of people who practitioners get to eventually interact with. I was therefore allowed to use my knowledge of medicine and fuse it with facets ...

Many children express their desire for a dream profession. Often, this desire changes as they grow up, but from a very young age, I knew I wanted to enter the priesthood. I met a priest in my formative years who helped me shape and grow into this dream; he has helped me time and again to find the right path to realize my eventual goal of entering the priesthood. It was recommended, by multiple members of the clergy, that I attend the University of Illinois at Chicago to study philosophy, as it is superior to many of the alternatives due to the ...

After a hard day of work, every person longs for peace and quiet, for the sound of closing the door from the inside and becoming one with the peaceful refuge that is called home. However, not all homes provide the same amount of this soothing emotion, so essential to human happiness. Some homes lack color, vibrancy, emotions, life, that delightfully cozy essence. This is the reason why I decided to become an interior designer, to be able to help people make their home a true place of refuge and contentment, where their field of vision would rest on soothing images that ...

Self-actualization is the process of realizing one's full potential - to really work hard and find out what you are capable of. Understanding the mind has been a particular passion of mine for a very long time - ever since my teenage years, I have struggled with my endless curiosity about why people do the things they do. Furthermore, I have always wanted to learn more about what people can do to better themselves. Realizing that I want to help people with their own emotional and life-related problems was a huge moment for me, and one that has brought me to ...

Special Education instructors require many virtues, including patience, persistence, and adaptability. My undergraduate degree from The College of Education at King Saud University of Riyadh has prepared me for many academic and professional challenges. Following graduation I volunteered at a specialist hospital, organizing and coordinating support for children with Attention Deficit Hyper Activity Disorder and their families. After this experience I worked as a teacher in the private and public school systems of Saudi Arabia, where I continued to gain experience working with special education children and attending to their families needs and concerns.

I am a single child in my family because of this I got much attention from my parents. My parents took education seriously because they knew it was the only key to my success in the future. I have had a perfect attendance record since first grade except for missing classes for special occasions, sports and performances. I learned to the play the piano at the age of six, I practiced every day and this helped me in being determined as well as establishing a good work ethic. I attended Beaumont High School for 4 ...

For me, it is an underground retreat, where the combined fragrances of iron and sweat and the steady background noises of human exertion give this place its unmistakable identity and character. It is a small weight training room located just a few paces from my home, in what others may see as just a small, run-of-the-mill gym facility. But to me, this place means so much more. It is where I learned the most valuable life lessons I know, and which still benefit me today. This rather ordinary basement gym was responsible for changing my life, and for shaping my character. Importantly, ...

Confidence, good sense of humor, sincerity and good communication skills have always been the strong sides of my personality and have continuously helped me to get along well with people of all ages.

Therefore, I have decided to apply to the Primary Education degree at the University of Greenwich, ...

I have always studied hard, because I have a passionate ambition to study computer science at the University of Washington so that I can one day return to help poor children in rural China, who currently have little or no opportunity to obtain a decent education.

Life knowledge and its application are acquired – in each and every respect – via a form of education. That has always been the case. A quotation attributed to the Chinese philosopher Confucius (551-479 BC) advised: “If your plan is for one year plant rice. If your plan is for ten years plant trees. If your plan is for one hundred years educate children.” That philosophy, emphasizing the tremendous importance of education in planning for our longer term future, is every bit as true today as it was over two thousand years ago – probably more so in this ...

Each aspect of life and the application thereof is acquired via some form of education. A newborn infant cries out for its mother, learns her responses to instinctive demands, and thus will quickly formulate the knowledge of wants versus solutions. The young life develops its motor skills, initially applies them for the first steps, and then graduates to the upright gait to freely traverse any environment. In this way, the education process is applied and instilled in every life.
The diversity of language and its functional and often poetic usage define the varied world cultures. Each one is ...

Out of all of the things I adore in life, I love working with children the most. Many children have learning disabilities or conditions that require special care to treat and address, particularly in the early years of their academic careers. There are quite a few instances where children do not get the help that they need, and their education falters as a result; this leads to continuing problems with dyslexia and similarly debilitating learning disabilities that hampers children's learning and ability to succeed. It is my fervent belief that, with the help of the Sam Houston State University program, I ...

My sole focus now is to own and operate my own business in the United Kingdom. I can attest that I have held to this dream ever since I was a child.

These rewards are my principal motivators; the ability to control own destiny since the sky is the limit for shrewd businesspersons, not to mention being your own boss. An additional motivation is the chance one has to run a business flexibly by taking advantage of opportunities that arise in the market place, and ...

1. Please explain your interest in sending your son/daughter to Greenhill School.
Generally, Joyce is doing very well in the current school. However, I feel the overall environment in public school does not motivate kids to compete. I think we need to prepare kids to be more competitive in this global economy. I think a prestige school like Greenhill School can provide more challenges to her academically. I feel that Greenhill will give my daughter opportunities that would not have been available of receiving if he had attended a public school. Because I understand that private schools like Greenhill School ...

My Early Life

I am originally from the UAE (United Arab Emirates). When I was a child, my parents decided to migrate to Canada. We lived there for over 10 years. We eventually left our house in Canada after my parents decided to go back to the UAE once again, for good perhaps. I have lived in two countries so far. The native language in UAE is Arabic while the ones in Canada are English and French. Through my years of stay in UAE and Canada, I have learned how to understand and fluently speak their respective native languages—now that is a total ...

Ever since I was a child, I have had the desire to pursue a career in healthcare. I truly enjoy helping others reach their potential, and I believe that it only takes a little help and compassion to inspire great accomplishment. Although I have always been interested in the field of healthcare, it wasn’t until recently that I felt the specific desire to become an occupational therapist.
About a year ago, my mother fell while using the restroom. Her injuries were severe enough that she was unable to work for several months. As the weeks wore on, my mother’s usual ...

Philosophy of Family and Community

As a teacher and educational practitioner, my philosophy for working with families and communities is grounded by three basic principles. The first is by instituting a connection between my student’s homes and our shared classroom. Second is the nurturing of family involvement with my classroom and school building. Finally, I work to make my school a true community learning center which all families can utilize both during and after school hours.

Autism is a disorder that faces many individuals within the society and if the individuals are not catered to then they would be seen as outcasts in the society. It is hard for them to acquire knowledge and skills. This would require specific attention in order to internalize what they will be taught thus was an influence on my decision on choosing autism. Autism faces a small number of people in any population. Thus, it is hard for governments to have significant consideration to people faced with this disorder. These individuals have different skills and disabilities which make it a compelling disorder ...

Commitment to Helping Children and Families
Born premature four and a half months early weighing one pound 11ounces, many consider it a small miracle that I survived in that tiny body. Since my organs had not developed fully, I required special medical care in the neonatal intensive care unit. But here I am today, a healthy adult who has survived many challenges since the preemie stage of my life. Challenges that have given me an enormous sense of gratitude and motivation to serve as a social worker helping improve the lives of others. Why? Because during early childhood, my life was greatly ...

I have for a long time been interested in drugs and their interactions. As a child, I remember my younger brother being allergic to crustaceans. This meant that I would always go to the drugstore to purchase anti-allergy drugs which would bring him relief. His allergy resulted in severe physical symptoms like: swollen face; difficult breathing due to reactions in his respiratory tract; and rashes all over his body. It always amazed me and my brother how the medicine seemed to work like magic and this aroused my curiosity about how it worked. This inspired me to take Biology at the ...

As a nutritionist, I find it ironic that problems on my personal life arise from issues on weight. My husband, even before we got married mentioned to me that he will start losing weight, but years later, we are still caught up in the same problem. Our main argument revolves around his weight; we are not able to have a baby because of the issue. It is sad to see because not only is his family life affected, but even his social and personal lives are being altered. To make things harder for us, his mother is even encouraging his unhealthy ...

Nowadays with increasing expenses on healthcare sector, many people still cannot have the proper medical service. At this point, it becomes the sphere of interest for social workers who help such people to navigate the world of healthcare. Social workers address the social, emotional and financial needs that often accompany healthcare issues. Thus, they help people to deal with difficulties which happen to be the consequences of life traumas, crucial changes and social injustice (Sokanu.com, 2016).

When I was a kid I lost my maxillary central incisors and that strongly impressed me as I can vividly recall feeling self-consciousness. I remember this period of inner turmoil, various dental procedures I had to come through which restored my self-confidence. I had experience later in my life which brought me face-to-face with people in a foreign land who struggled with dental health issues. These memories ultimately awaked within me a desire to become a dentist. While my self-consciousness helped me to appreciate the value of dental health, a series of treatments in the following years brought me to the place where my ...

When people think of China, I think they often think of places like Beijing and Shanghai, these sprawling metropolitan places packed tight with millions and millions of people.

I come from the southern part of China, from the Guangxi province, where everything is warm, green, and beautiful. I was lucky to be born in Guilin. My family was lucky also, and were quite prosperous in the years before I was born. Still, I was the first ...
