Meet Sophia Baron…

Q: What’s your favorite elective?

A: My favorite elective is marketing because I’m learning skills I can use in real life situations while also having fun.

Q: Who’s your favorite teacher?

A: My favorite teacher is Mr. Goldberg because he does a good job of explaining the material we are learning and you can tell he is a kind person who cares about his job and students.

Q: What piece of advice would you give to a freshman?

A: A piece of advice I would give to freshmen would be to not let one bad grade affect how you view yourself because it truly doesn’t matter in the long run.

Q: Do you have any useful study techniques?

A: A study technique I use is speaking the course material out loud. For example, in AP Government, I write out the study questions and answer them multiple times, then later I have someone ask them to me, and I speak the answer out loud. When I hear myself say it, it helps me remember it better.

Q: Do you have any possible career path options in mind?

A: I would like to go into something relating to science, possibly biology or nursing.

Q: If you could start any school club, what would it be?

A: I think it would be cool If Berkley added an NHS type club for lowerclassmen to have community service opportunities where we seek out volunteer work.

Q: What is your favorite subject?

A: My favorite subject is science because I really enjoy learning about our ecosystem. I hope to have a future in it someday.
