At the beginning of my sixth-grade year, I had no one. No one believed in me or my abilities to do great things in life. Until I met Mr. Moore. Mr. Moore was and is my current social studies teacher. He taught me to stay true to myself and always try my best in life, even if the reward was small and not as meaningful. And because of him, I am the person I am today. A strong, independent, young lady who always tackles problems headfirst.
