I researched 5 different career options that I could see myself doing in the future. I love kids so I researched an elementary teacher, a special education teacher, and a pediatric nurse. I also like to make a difference in people's lives so I researched a speech pathologist and a lawyer. All these careers require different levels of college education and all have different schools that are top in each certain career.…
From childhood, curiosity with the human body and its functions has engulfed me. Having been surrounded by health care professionals all my life, my family and endocrinologist have motivated me to prepare for a medical career. Over the years I have asked many questions concerning medicine because I have a desire to gain more knowledge and excel in the medical field. My experience as a caregiver for a patient with Lou Gehrig’s disease has also influenced me to pursue a career in medicine. Like many of my family members, I want to help people.…
Growing up I never had a clear idea of what I wanted to do as a profession. No inclination of something that amazed me or pushed me toward it. I eventually chose what I thought would be a good stable career simply because it would be a financially good choice but it never seemed like something I could stick with or love. I discounted anything from the medical field because everyone was going there and I didn't want to be a lost number of people rushing to the same career, I wanted to be a little different.…
Throughout my high school career, and previous to high school, I have taken various science and art classes. These are subjects that have always caught my attention and I plan to continue attending classes that fall under these categories, during my senior year and throughout college. Science has been a subject that I have always had an interest in and have thoroughly enjoyed. During high school, my focuses have primarily been in health science classes that will help me excel in a medical career, although I have taken science classes outside of this area. The classes I have taken so far are Honors Biology, Medical Science I, Animal Science, Honors Chemistry…
As we get older, we are often challenged with the question of what we want to be when we grow up. I remember being asked often, and I almost always responded with a different career every time. For the longest time I was unsure of what path of education I wanted to pursue or what jobs I would be happy doing the rest of my life. It is very tough making a decision that will impact the rest of your life. Some people figure their out their calling at a very young age, whereas others are not as lucky and spend most of their life trying to find their calling.…
The people with the largest impact have the ability to change everything. The steps that I take today will shape the rest of my life, but the steps I take as a teacher will impact generations to come. I want to become a teacher not only to pass on knowledge, but to have a greater, lasting impact on the next generation. The knowledge passed on will help students to succeed, but it is the experiences they have that will last a lifetime. The responsibility of a teacher is far greater than many realize; they must learn how their students learn and adapt to better suit those needs.…
Career and College Research Paper Being in the medical field can be difficult. Ever since I could remember I wanted to be a doctor. As I got older, I realized being a doctor would take a lot more work then what I thought. I began researching what was the next best thing to a doctor, a registered nurse is what I had found. A registered nurse helps patients, maintains medical records, and takes care of the plans.…
I wake up in the morning, more tired then I was when I went to bed, with my math study guide notes stuck to my face; my only hope of revival is a hot cup of coffee. The long late nights are rough, but my hard work will be worth it for my future career. My interest in math has led me to pursue a career in math business, with all the challenges and opportunities my future career will bring. I enjoy math, but my interest in math business was not immediately sparked. I did not decide I wanted to pursue a career in math until last year after I took my first college math classes.…
Education and training was my highest scoring category based on my survey answers. This shows that based on my personality, I would be well suited for a teaching position. After receiving the results of my clusters, I decided that the most interesting field suited toward my current interests was a teaching position in the math department. Based on personal knowledge of myself, I came to the conclusion that high school would be the best level of specific…
Finances (business) has always been really interesting to me, that is why I chose it to be my major. Although combat arms would be a hell of a lot more fun, I believe there will be more opportunities when I get out if I utilize my degree while I’m an officer. Finance Corps officers have five core competencies, fund the force, banking and disbursing, accounting support and cost management, pay support and management internal controls. All of these competencies relate directly towards my degree. My top three jobs that I will likely pursue after I serve will be a financial manager, operations manager, and a financial advisor.…
Ever since I was in the second grade I have had a love for math. I knew then that once I got older I would pursue a career associated with math. At that time, I wanted to be a math teacher because I did not have knowledge of many careers, but I loved math and was around teachers all the time. Math came so easy to me and I could do it so fast, and still can. When I got home from school I would act like a math teacher and teach my sister math, even though she is older than me.…
Since my years in middle school, I had fostered an intense passion toward Mathematics particularly, as well as other natural science disciplines in general. Therefore, it had been my anticipation since then to select a career in the realm of STEM ( Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics); however, which exact career was still an uncertainty. My interest varied inconsistently throughout my early years in high school, as I initially wanted to become a pharmacist, and subsequently a high school math teacher. Momentarily, I also became skeptical about my passion toward Mathematics since I was clueless about whether I enjoyed the subject simply because I excelled at it or I truly liked it. Such a doubt stuck with me for a while until my Junior year in high school when I had the…
As children we are often asked what we want to be when we grow up; the answers range from firefighter, doctor, president, astronaut, veterinarian and many more. When asked this question my response was that I wanted to be a teacher or more specifically a math teacher. At the time I was never really sure why, but as I have grown up and looked back on my experiences in school it has become clear I wanted to be a teacher; this being because I loved to learn and I love to help people. I think that my love for learning is one of the main reasons I wanted become a teacher because no matter what is going on something is always learned.…
“What career to choose when there are so many things that interest me?” I would always ask myself this since I wanted to do and be everything. I became very indecisive because of all the potential there was. I figured I had to be a little more realistic, so I decided to choose my top three careers and then go from there. My top three career choices are to be a teacher, an actress, and a cinematographer.…
Education has always been a huge part of my and me family’s lives. When my mom had me she was in her ninth year of teaching high school English. This being said, I can not remember a time education was not predominantly represented in my life. From learning my letters and colors in books at home, to elementary, middle and high school, college and then my career as a teacher, the love of learning has always been an important part in my life. Learning at home.…
