My best learning experience is from my Language and Composition class. Essays had always been a struggle for me and often found myself short for words both in writing and in conversation. It was often due to thinking that whatever I said or wrote had to be perfect and concise at my first attempt. My teacher made it seem so simple by saying "It doesn't need to be that complicated, just say what you think and don't think too much on it." This gave me a new outlook and helped me to better communicate myself, and not just on paper.

My worst learning experience involves ridicule and embarrassment. In my early school years I was a much slower learner than I am today. That being said it was hard for me to grasp math, reading and writing, and learning Spanish as a second language. In my 1st grade Spanish class, my teacher would come around to check our homework, and one day she simply laughed at all that I had written down with little explanation, at least not in a way that I could understand. It had affected how I would view my intelligence and how I would approach learning.
