"An Insight"
Many might find working, over the summer, as an computer instructor at an asylum mundane. However the time I spent at Arpan - A school for mentally challenged children couldn't have been better spent.
No student at Arpan was mentally inferior. On careful observation, for example, each one displayed his unique approach towards typing A through Z but just wouldn't accept the conventional. They would try to find patterns; "Why are U and I together", they'd ask. I learned the importance of vision, and the human tendency to ignore the "Obvious!". On typing the wrong character, they went all the way back and started again. I learned perseverance and perfection. Even if I fired them for mistakes, they smiled back. I felt guilty for ever cursing my teachers over course-load. I learned as much as anyone in the class, including proficiently operating a ball mouse by moving the ball itself! Apart from teaching my favorite subject, I also got an insight into a marvelous little world.
Thanks for reading
This is still a bit rough. Please give any and all advise.
(will post essay soon)

How could I make it better?.. Something missing ?
Hi, it was a pleasure to read your essay.
but "On typing the wrong character, they went all the way back and started again. I learned perseverance and perfection. "
Are you sure that they did it because of " perseverance and perfection"? I think you need to work on this part to make it more impressive or convincing.
