Describe an occasion when you forgot something important
One occasion when I forgot something really important happened not long ago, and it was quite embarrassing. I had scheduled a lesson with one of my students for Sunday afternoon, and I had everything planned out in my mind. However, I ended up oversleeping and didn’t wake up until a few hours later.
My student had already been waiting for me at the scheduled time, and by the time I realized I had missed the lesson, it was already three hours later. I felt so bad because not only had I let my student down, but I had also wasted their time. They were really understanding, but I could tell they were frustrated, which made me feel even worse.
The worst part was knowing that I was the one responsible for the situation. I had been so focused on other tasks that I didn’t double-check the time, and I let the time slip away. When I finally got there, I apologized profusely, but I knew that I had caused a lot of inconvenience.
Since then, I’ve made sure to set multiple alarms to prevent oversleeping and have become much more mindful of my schedule. I also make sure to send my students a quick reminder the day before the lesson, just to confirm everything. Although it was a pretty embarrassing situation, it taught me an important lesson about being more organized and punctual.
