Hi my name is Pricilla Felix, I am 20 years old, born on September 29, 1993. I was also born and raised in New York City, in Manhattan. I currently live with my mom, step dad, and uncle. My mom is a high school graduate; her mom did not have the money to pay for her to go to college. My uncle decided to drop out of high school and get his GED. And my step dad is an immigrant who I believe did not go to school. However, I am the first of the family to go to college. I am currently a second semester in of my sophomore year. So far, I like SUNY Canton except the weather. However, as I keep growing and moving on to reach my career, I have learned many things and strategies to become a good student. At the beginning I would not listen, and that’s why I failed to get good grades before. I have learned that it is all about hard work and dedication that is the only way you are going to get where you want to be and be successful. We all want to make a lot of money doing what we love, but the only way to achieve that state is by getting a degree. My personal way of learning is by exploring different things, being able to view things in different angles. I am the type of person who is open to learn new things. If I observe my surroundings, I can learn different things from different people. I will not settle myself to just learn about one thing. I like looking at things from different views.  I also like to learn and or study alone in a quiet place. I do not like being around others that may distract me from doing my school work. I am the type of person who gets distracted easily. Other than that, I am a very good learner and I am getting good grades and soon I am going to achieve my goals. Furthermore, one thing I would like to learn is how the word was created. That is one thing that really interest my mind and it is the only thing that I am interested to know. If I learned this, it will give me a reason to believe why I am on this earth. And it will also let me know how everything around me is where it is. This is a very hard and complicated topic and it will take a long time to explain, but I would love to learn about it

       The way that i would describe the aspects of the theory of performance to another student is by explaining to them that it is all about your choices. You as a person make your own decision. No one knows you better than you knowing yourself. Just ask yourself, how and why do you think you got where you are right now. According to the theory of performance it is mainly about six different aspects, which are, identity, skills, knowledge, context, personal factors, and fixed factors. With this being said, you basically grew up learning and fixing the negatives. however, you also have full control of the choices, so make sure you make the right decision so it can lead you to the correct and successful path. In addition, there are elements that can also lead you to a successful path which are, identity, learning, skills, knowledge, context, personal factors, and fix factors. However, the elements and aspects are very similar to each other but they all lead to great direction. When i was in high school, I was able to learn right from wrong because of my peers and families. Throughout my life, I was able to identify who I was and was able to build good skills to get good grades and graduate high school. I was also able to fix my negative so I can be able to be a successful person. However, although I was the type of student that I was in high school, in my opinion I believe that some key characteristics of a high-quality learner especially for an honor student, is be dedicated and have determination. To become an honor student you must really want it and do all you can to achieve those standers. Always dedicate yourself to your school work. He or she should also have good learning skills as well as good knowledge.
