School Experiences School is responsible for teaching children their academic. The way a teacher interacts with their student has a lasting impression. Problem solving skill is an essential part of a child’s life. My early years were full of learning through play.

When I learned to accept my model of behavior of observation my outcome was valuable to me. I was able to recognize my strength and weakness in my performance.
