More the Merrier

So I am well aware that I am far behind on my senior project, but I am slowly catching up. I have found another mentor. Now instead of just one, I will be having two. His name is Elmer Rodriguez and he is part of the High School Outreach Program. My mentor, Even Luna had been wanting me to meet up with him for a while and when I saw him when he came to help us apply to Mt. SAC at the school, I went up to him at the end and asked him if he knew Evelyn, and of course, he did. I then, asked him if he would be my mentor and he said yes, so I will be able to meet with him since he is closer to me than Evelyn. Things are slowly working out and getting better.

Blog 13: Lesson 2 Reflection

Content:

1. Positive Statement
> I am most proud of my activity. I feel that it went well. My peers seemed to get all the answers right and seemed to get the point of my activity.

2. Questions to consider.
> a.) CR
> b.) I didn't meet the P requirements and I am aware that I needed more depth within my research and I needed to talk more about my mentorship.

3. What worked with my Lesson 2 is that I feel that I spoke so much clearer. I felt much more confident when it came to talking about my topic, and answers.I feel that I didn't stumble too much with my words as i normally do, which i think that is a really good thing.

4. I feel that if I could go back, then I would take more time explaining things. I would slow down when it was my time to talk.Because I was told that I had really good information, but that I spoke too quickly for my peers to catch it all. I feel that if I had slow down a bit then maybe I would have reached my time.

5. I'm not sure of my second answer.
