Hello Professor Mcnair, my name is Jacques Abraham, I am 21 years old and I was born in Haiti on January 17th, 1989. I have two sisters and two brothers and I love being the last child of the family. I came to this country in 2003, and did the rest of my high school at the North Miami Senior High which I got my High School Diploma from in 2007. After graduation I decided to attend MiamiDadeCollege where I am majoring in Elementary Teaching. Since I was a little kid, I always loved doing two things, which are: “Playing basketball and also teaching kids around me by telling them what is good or bad”; However, when I was in High School I wanted to become a professional player. I cannot say that I was the best but I was one of the best. To illustrate, I was a point Guard, a team player and was really passionate about playing for the team. After i graduated I was supposed to go to Gainesville for a try out but my dad didn't want to let me go and at that time I was under his authority so I didn't have any other choices. Therefore, I decided to pursue with a degree in Education. Sometimes, people asked me: “Why do you want to teach?” Others say that this major do not pay or it is boring and I always have one answer for them: “I am not doing it for the money; I am doing it because I love it.” People might think that education is easy, but it is not, especially if you do not like kids. I know there are a lot of bad teachers out there, but there are also bad police officers and lawyers etc… In life there will always have good and bad in anything you choose to do, but I will do the best I can to be in the good category. I am almost done with my Associate in Arts, I will graduate next year and will beginning my Bachelor degree Miami Dade, but I would love to go to a bigger university so I could have an opportunity to try out for basketball. My long term goal is to open a school in my country for the kids because I think that one way for the country to go forward. I have been in the United States for almost seven years, and I done a lot of good things during those years. Now, I am working on getting my Mom to the country and I will continue working hard on my accomplishing. My favorite show is Meet the Browns and I love watching all kind of sports.
Thank YOU
