She would be described as fun, cheerful, friendly and athletic. Marie is a
lover of cats. She enjoys playing volleyball, tennis, and softball. And so may
know of her dream of one day becoming an athletic trainer. Marie had a pretty
solid child, and has close relationship with her family. Some close to her may
know her routine on a typical day, of waking up going to school, and after
school as math tutoring and sometimes Volleyball practice. But something that
most people don't know about my classmate Marie is that as a child Marie had
speech problems. She was put in IEP known as Individualized Education Program. Since
this occurred when she was little she doesn’t remember much about the program.
Maries estimates that it was by 8th grade when she left the program.
Listening to Marie during her interview I determined that this was the most
unique thing about her. When asked what is something most people don’t know
about you Marie responded “Most people don’t know that I had speech problems
when I was little” while interviewing her I found this fact fascinating because
there is no trace of such. Not that I was excepting any trace of her childhood speech problems, of course not, but she was transparent and talked about it so openly.
