Personal Narrative: Working As A Lighting Assistant

Decent Essays
I worked as a lighting assistant / stagehand.
Personally, I think most of our live lab went pretty well and smooth, we got everything done and set up even earlier than usual, we were an hour ahead of everything, not only because we were very confortable with our positions and helping each other out but also because it was a single girl act instead of a complete band performing on stage, which does not really give me a complete perspective of how a live lab could actually get in terms of complexity and work since we did not have to do much on this one, although we still had to treat it as a show either way. When it comes to lighting assistance, for anybody who is ever willing to volunteer for this position, I would suggest to always go ahead

    I have always been interested in learning and using new ideas. Throughout my life, I have invariably drawn from my life experiences, newly learned ideas and my continuing education to help problem-solve sensibly and realistically allowing me to move forward or help others reach their goals. Although I have no formal teaching experience, in my past work and involvement in organized sports, I have repeatedly used the Progressive philosophy. When dealing with 13 & 14 year olds many situations arise such as bullying, personality clashes or simply not understanding a drill or play. I deal with these situations by asking questions to stimulate a discussion, allowing them to draw on past experiences; positive or negative, consequently allowing them to come up with a solution or grasp the knowledge they are seeking.…

    There is no science to my madness; I keep it simple when it comes to organizing my day, or reminding me of an appointment. My calendar app on my phone is the only way I keep up with my busy schedule. When adding to my calendar I make sure I have a brief description that reminds me of what I have to accomplish. Usually, for appointments I have scheduled I set a reminder for that morning to inform me about upcoming appointments for that day, so I am better aware of my day. As I mentioned in my introduction, I am a Dental Assistant in the Army, and I see multiple patients on a daily basis.…
