college recruitin...Personal Statement
I started playing tennis when I was six, competing since I was 10. Then at the age of 15 I started online school to focus more on my training, practicing 5 to 6 hours a day, keeping a high GPA and improving my game during the next 2 years.
Then I moved to the United States, as soon as I got here I looked for a place to practice while I was still in my online junior year. When I finished I enrolled in a regular high school to do my senior year, and started playing for tennis team which was really exciting because it meant more time on the courts for me. As long as the season is going I have won all my matches and I am hoping to get to go to the states tournament in Orlando at the end of the season. I am enjoying all my classes, and working hard to keep my 3.7 GPA and even make it higher by the end of the year.
