  2. Hi its BMM, I studied Sir Francis Drake . I picked him because I had never heard of him before. I learned from creating a resume that he was a pirate, a knight, and a farmer. My favorite part of the interview were the questions. My least favorite part was the class watching me. I gained knowledge on various explorers to use in the future.
