Why I am Qualified
This essay is about why I am qualified to be a piano instructor. I got a Superior-minus in a piano contest at the upper-intermediate level. Also, I have been playing the piano for the totality of six years. My household consists of five people and it is two families living together. I am also very intelligent and get Distinguished Honors (straight A’s).
My responsibilities, aside from the obvious, chiefly consist of doing various household chores. I have to take out the trash, carry the laundry down to the basement, and deliver the laundry to people’s rooms. I have an IQ of 144 and got a 268 on the math MAP test (Despite the fact that these numbers are meaningless and are on occasion inaccurate, I just consider them an “accomplishment” because they reflect my intelligence.) I also made the All-Star team as a pitcher in 4th grade. Recently, I got a third place in a piano contest and second place in a piano contest. In addition, I am in chorus (as a major) and band (as a xylophone minor) at Cab Calloway School of the Arts, which I obviously got into.
My basic skills mainly deal with directions. I can follow directions well if they are given to me clearly. I am also good at giving clear directions (e.g. I wouldn’t say, “Get that over there”.). Also, I am very dependable, even if the task that I am assigned to do obliges awakening at 2:00 a.m. Trustworthiness, however, is my “strongest” basic skill, which I use to build trust with all the people around me.
