As Ive developed my skills as a learner, I have

drastically increased my capability to learn new
information. I am particularly proud of my high GPA and
my completion of pre-calculus 12. I feel compelled to
complete my work in the most organized fashion and
always be prepared for every test.

Personally, being a thinker is what drives me to further

my love of science. I plan to complete my bachelor of

thinking capabilities. In classes like physics and
chemistry, being able to make connections and
inferences between questions is crucial for succeeding.

important to be able to listen and communicate with
others positively. Not only can I listen to other students
opinions, but I can also voice my own while still being

build relationships with others and communicate
effectively.

amazing community group. Everyone is always smiling
and its humbling to be apart of such a great aspect of
Kelowna.
