Fred's profile

I met Frederic in Mr­. Bonkowski's english class and I honestly liked to had that chance to know him a little bit better, he's a very nice guy. Fred studies in music, especially in classical percussions. For his short term goal, Fred would be willing to successfully play his instrument. Has his intermediate goal, he would really like to get through his studies and his long term goal is to achieve a music program in universiy and to be able to teach music and use it to heal people.

His achievements are that he has won many contests, such as group or individual contests. Some of Fred's interests are drum and bugle corps (he went all over america to participate in competition) and he likes spirituality, working out, reading books and writting because he’s always seeking for the right meaning of the words in the dictionnary . Most of his social network is in Valleyfield, Beauharnois and some in Montreal. Finaly, Fred has special skills, such as controlling the rythm in any kind of percussion. He also have great skills in helping people in french class and teaching others how to play with drum sticks.

So that was the profile of my new friend Frederic.
