What is my ideal student?

What an ideal student is varies from person to person and may range from someone who is a straight "A" student to someone who is involved in many school activities.  But to me an ideal student is someone who, despite how difficult he or she may find a class, continues to push through and works hard to succeed in the course.  He or she takes the time to study and asks for help if he or she needs it, as well as doing what is required of him or her to do well.  Basically, an ideal student is one who maximizes his or her potential and takes advantage of opportunities that are presented.
