Describe the activities you have participated in. These might include sports, ASB, clubs, theater,
church groups, or other organized activities outside of regular school hours.

On average, how many hours do you dedicate to your extracurricular life each week or month?
I dedicate at least 2 hours a week to tennis (if the weather lets me). If I have free time I try go
during that time.

Have you enjoyed your extracurricular experiences so far? Why or why not?

and improving my skills.

What kinds of soft skills, academic skills, and/or specialized training have you needed to use to
participate fully in these experiences?
I have need to be dedicated and focused to get better. Without dedication you can’t accomplish
anything in life. You need to focus and conquer all of your challenges.

How might these skills be used in a career or college environment?

You use dedication in college because if you aren’t dedicated to your studies then you will fail.
You need to stay focused on your schooling. If you want to succeed you need to be dedicated
and focused in whatever you do.

Portfolio 2018-19

I have learned that I do not like to lose by playing tennis. I learned that I am a competitive
person. I want to win every single game I play in. But I have also learned that in order to achieve
great success, you need to learn how it feels to fail.
