The Art Institute of Dallas admission essay [10]
I finished typing the essay.
Does it seem okay? Is the structure or wording okay?
Should I change anything, or take or add some things?
thanks
Since I was younger, I had a great art teacher. Her name was Ms. Hoen, she taught me since kindergarten through sixth grade. She was really the one who inspired me to draw more and be creative. I can remember when I saw one of her pieces, which was a hand, and I was so amazed by all the detail and how realistic it looked. Ever since, I have been motivated to be as good of an artist as she was, or even a better one.
But something changed, I got pregnant at sixteen. I thought that everything was over for me. Having to raise a baby at such a young age, I thought that he would be my only priority, and thought that I wouldn't be able to finish high school. It turned out that I was able to pass all my classes, even my computer class where I am now a certified specialist for Microsoft Word. I am very proud of myself that I accomplished everything this year, and I am now ready for my final year; senior year.
I've heard about this school from television advertisements and off the internet. Once I read about all the classes there, I was very interested on attending The Art Institute of Dallas. I honestly was very excited about the media arts and animation class that is available. I am specifically interested in the animation category, mainly because my favorite movies to watch are Walt Disney movies. I absolutely appreciate all the work that would go into the older movies such as, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Pocahontas, Tarzan, etc, and I would love to be able to create that kind of beauty.
After attending to one of the open houses, I was so ecstatic by this school. The presentations were great and the staff and teachers were very kind. Everyone seemed like they were very encouraging and passionate for the students. I felt very comfortable being in such an environment and great looking school. And I really appreciated that the school helps you find a career in the program you are in. I've also heard that some teachers hire their students to work in their studios, which I thought was pretty neat.
I believe that I can learn a lot by attending this school. I would love to be able to learn about the animation process and become more efficient in my techniques. It would also be great if I could have a successful career in something I love doing and support my son from that. That is my dream and I am willing to work hard to conquer it.
