Teaching Chess And Life-Discuss a Scene

   The story was about a bot named Carlos who lived in a dangerous neighborhood and was gifted with a mentor like figure named Jeremy who taught him about chess but also more about life. As he grew up he was taught the right things in life by his mentor such as "good sportsmanship". He later grew up to be an assistant coach.
    There was a scene in the story that caught my attention and decided to talk about it. Carlos was at a chess tournament and playing for a top prize. Carlos had got a winning combination and began to brag about it. The reason i bring this scene up is the fact that Jeremy was his mentor and stopped the whole game to correct Carlos on his mistake and gave his a lesson on good sportsmanship. That was an example to which how Carlos' mentor has helped him throughout his life.

Teaching Chess and Life

  The reading talks about how finding a activity that you enjoy and can keep you out of trouble that is exampled mostly everywhere on the streets.When that times come, you'll meet someone who will carry you towards your goal in life.This is called a mentor. I had made my own connection to the text. My father had made a major impact in my life. When i was young my father introduced me to drawing because he knew that would keep me from doing the wrong things out on the street. As I see now, it did and he kept me going, developing my skills, keeping me on track towards my goal. My goal was to be an artist for top cartoon/anime businesses.
