I think my mother is the person who has helped me the most in life so far. She has been
extremely influential, and she still plays a very important role whenever I must make important
decisions. During these 2 minutes, I’11 try to focus on how my mother has helped me in my
childhood.
When I was much younger, she spent a lot of time with me
.
She really helped me out with my
studies
.
I believe this situation is very common in China. Because of the one-child policy, parents
have more time to devote to their children. I was very lucky since my mother really paid close
attention to my education. I guess it's a great chance to have someone to guide you when you are
young, to give you a hand whenever it is necessary.
When I was in primary school, my mother used to sit down with me every day after school to
review my lessons. She made me recite whatever the teacher asked us to learn, and she would very
often explain things
.
She's a very patient woman, very considerate and thoughtful. She definitely
helped me get better grades, all the way through middle school.
In addition, my Mom used to read my assignments and correct my writing. She would always
give me new ideas and advice to improve
.
I guess she taught me how to be more meticulous
.
She
always paid attention to details. In China, we always say that parents are the first teachers, and I
strongly agree with this saying. I remember she used to check my homework on a daily basis, and
sometimes for English class, she would even quiz me on a few words
.
I really owe her a lot, because she has helped me become more independent. She emphasized
on the fact that I should be well-organized and also more critical about my work. She has always
expected a lot from me, which has been really beneficial to me
.
I learned how to set higher goals
for myself, and work harder in order to achieve better results.
