Abstract

It was a rocky beginning at St Malachy’s.  I enrolled in all enriched. I found that there was too much homework, so I dropped to only enriched English and Math. I had 5 excellent teachers at St Malachy’s. It was the place where I received the best education. I had Dr Owen Dunn, a PhD in Chemistry. He was a superb Chemistry teacher. I failed grade 10 chemistry. The teachers were a first-year woman teacher. Out of the six courses I had to repeat in my education, four were taught by first year female teachers. So they gave me a “C” n Chemistry anyway, and I was off to grade 11 Chemistry with Dr Dunn. Even though half the class were in grade 12, I got the highest mark in the class. I only wish I had taken up work in the lab at the invitation of Dr. Dunn.
