My role
model that I want to use is my past fifth grade teacher named Elizabeth Riol. I
chose Mrs. Riol because she always kept me in check in the English class she
taught. I wasn’t much a great reader in the fifth grade so by helping me out,
Mrs. Riol would let me have after class sessions with her one on one. I would
gain a lot of her attention because I was eager to be in her class. I was one
of the students to always participate by asking questions and asking to read
different sections of chapters. Mrs. Riol has helped me a lot throughout my
elementary career and till this day I thank her and keep in touch with her
because of that. A strategy she taught me back in elementary school would be to
use my index finger while I’m reading so I don’t lose track of where I’m
reading. Another strategy that Mrs. Riol taught me was to highlight key words
or facts while reading long articles because they could pop up in questions
from the articles. Since I’ve been taught these methods by my old fifth grade
teacher, I’m always ready to excel in any class that involves English or
reading.
