Problem Solver

I have always been a problem solver throughout my whole life but I have never perfected this skill until I got to high school. I think problem solving has been a natural thing for me because I’m a very logical person. In my freshmen math class I was one of the top students because solving math problems was just an easy thing for me to do. I was going to be put in a math class that would help me out because the year before I had poor math test scores but I was able to test out of it and I learned geometry. Math isn’t the only example of me being a problem solver. There are other times when I was able to work at solving a problem that was more group related than math. For example in my peer education class we had to decide what lessons we wanted to teach our students and how to go about them. Sometimes we had conflicts as to what we wanted to teach our students and we had to solve those problems. We did so by communicating with each other and exploring all of our options. We discussed what the outcomes of each decision would be and how it would affect the students we taught and how they learned from the activities we decided to carry out with them. The outcome was very good. Because we were able to work at and solve our problems the students we taught benefitted greatly. Becoming a problem solver is a very important quality to have in high school because many problems do arise and it’s important to be able to solve them.
