Interview

     
  I had the chance to interview Betty Johnson “The bee”. I was really glad I actually got partnered up with her because when I first saw her and when I had the chance to read some of her blog’s she looked like a real fun and easy to talk to person. So I hope all of you enjoy reading this little interview.
            Betty is Chinese, thirty years young, she’s the youngest of 2. She likes the color purple and hang out with friends and family on her free time. I asked her how would u describe yourself in 3 words? She responds “goal oriented, being a kid at heart, and caring”. Something that motivates her in attending college and continuing with her learning is to get better knowledge since without education there’s really nothing. Being an elementary teacher also motivates her to be in college. Since she is a teacher her schedule starts as soon as she’s up and starts getting ready to arrive at work. She starts teaching from 8am to 3:30pm. She also said that she is “traveling from one place to another” all day, as soon as she’s out of work she goes home and does some of the household stuff and then goes to college. Balancing family, school and work is always different each day.
            Betty’s older guy cousin Victor is one of her role model in her life. He’s a very outgoing person and stands up for what he has to say and she admires that. Betty considers herself as a mentor with the kids she teaches at her work, because every single kid in there looks up to her and she teaches them what’s right and what’s not. In 5 years she sees herself with no kids; but if it happens it happens, she also sees herself as a High School counselor or an assistant principal.
            Some of the things she likes from Oxnard college is the social environment. The things she thinks the college needs improvement is the way some of the professors teach, and I can totally agree with her because I got to experience some teachers I had and some that I have now they make class so boring and just makes us fall asleep, I think they should make there class a but more fun and enjoyable. Her "Motto" or philosophy is " Keep moving on up with your education and have Fun in Life!" Some of the ways Betty’s culture influence her decision to come to college is that Asian culture push you to succeed and make u strive for the best, and want the best for there family.
