upcoming career fairs, how I need to jump onto them, and how to present yourself to the employers. The first topic that we covered was the career fair. We looked at the employers that were going to be there and discussed which ones I should present myself to if I were to look for an internship or job with their company. For example, at the upcoming career fair there are a few insurance companies that are looking to hire and offering internships, Sanderson and I agreed that they would want to…

country because I enjoy experiencing new cultures and interacting with people face to face. Similar to every successful professional and business owner I will have my ups and downs, but I have to power my way through the adversity. I have to push myself to the top, where I worked for everything I have dreamed about. I can have…
work and how much I get done I can thrive better than being in a classroom and having a teacher trying to focus on 30 other kids. I don’t think I’ll learn much in that scenario. The reason is that sometimes a lot of the time is used to correct the students that are behaving poorly in the classroom. If the same amount of time had been spent with me just doing the work on my own I think I would have failed. The reason online schooling didn't work…
Second, while many students come from different culture and ethnicity , college is often a mix of different people from different walks of life . Barner believes that "It's a culture shock,", he said "I'm coming from New Orleans where it's majority black, most of the community I have seen and interacted with is black, and then you come to Grinnell, it's just different". Currently, diversity represent a big part of college admission. Since we will likely collaborate with many different…
is rooted in experiences I have had throughout my life that have led me to study education. Experiencing elementary education first hand, having an open and understanding perspective towards the education system, having a point of view towards how students should be taught, all of which factor into my future classroom. As a future teacher I have the experience that will enable me to be fully equipped in my own classroom. I first became interested in the teaching profession when I began working…

As I walked down the hallway of the Memorial Union, I search for the staircase that will bring me to my haven for the next hour and a half. After I expressed worry to my friend that I would have nowhere to go during my long class breaks, she told me that Sparky’s Den is where she goes to hang out between classes. As I descended down the gray staircase, I pictured what the room would look like; with a name like Sparky’s Den, I saw a crowded room with dark brown wooden paneling on the walls, dim…

I will be teaching English to Chinese students at Fuxin Experimental Middle School starting March 1st and we will be returning…
I had a psychology class at my university yesterday. It was presentation day for a small group of fellow students, who gathered the class into a circle. One of them began throwing around a beach ball after giving the instructions: "Whichever question your right thumb lands on, you have to answer." The ball is thrown around a few times. I guessed I would probably be one of the last students to get it--I don't tend to be the liveliest person in the room, and people were naturally going to throw…
