Recommended: A teacher as a motivator

During my four years at Martin County High School I feel that I have made a major impact on the school and most importantly, the community. I have dedicated most of my time helping my trainer with her volleyball technique class and teaching younger and sometimes older kids how to play volleyball. I have also spent my time helping my sick friend, Susie after she has had many surgeries. I enjoy helping out my community whenever and wherever it needs the help. Starting off with volleyball, I have helped my trainer the past five years with her summer and fall technique classes that she does for ages between 5-18. I spend my summers over at Redeemer Lutheran Church and School from 9AM-5PM, sometimes even later. I sometimes help her during her fall

    My senior year of high school alone, I completed over 160 hours of community service. Being a full-time student and a part-time worker, unfortunately does not allow for much spare time, but whenever I do have a chance, I always volunteer through my youth group in church. One of my biggest goals in life is being able to give back to the community on a much bigger scale. Ultimately, I hope to even go full circle and give scholarships to Hispanic student like me.

    Throughout my four years in high school I have been fortunate enough to fulfill many of my aspirations and my thirst for knowledge.

    On October 29th Saturday, I participated in a volunteer opportunity with the democratic campaign. The office had more than 20 people, some of them were making phone calls. I received a package with a map, a list of people’s name, address, and other basic information about the person. My duty was knocking those people’s doors and ask them “who are you going to vote?” “Do you have any things that you want to say about the society?” I do not have a car so they assigned me to the place which is located in walking distance from Beloit College. A married couple who were at the office offered me a ride to Campus. Both of them are in their 50’s. They told me that they have a friend who is now teaching at a university in Tokyo, Japan. The lady also had been to Japan in 1980 as a student. Her husband did not talk much.

    Over the years I have been very involved in my community and school. Being a part of something helps to define who you are as a person and the principles and values you hold as important.

    I am dedicated to helping out our community and school, because it warms my heart and soul. Seneca said in about 40 to 60 A.D. that you should “be silent as to services you have rendered, but speak of favors you have received.” In other words you should not boast about the numerous projects you have accomplished and how much physical work you executed, but rather pride yourself on how you helped people in community and school, and how you have affected their lives with positive means. I feel life is joyous and it should be the feeling everyone illustrates, and this is exactly what keeps me functioning in the stressful world today. I find comfort in helping others to make their lives a little more like heaven and this comfort motivates me to perform copious service projects to the best of my capability whenever I find the time. Time is fair to the rich, the poor, and to every race, because time is equal and gives everyone 24 hours daily to accomplish their required tasks. Because time is so valuable and I am occupied by difficult advanced placement and honor classes and juggle school, clubs, sports, and friends, I joined Key Club, a high school division of the adult service club, Kiwanis. Key Club opened new doors to make every extra minute count towards helping others.

    Being in a school that brought students from various counties and cities with different backgrounds, beliefs, and perspectives, opened my eyes to seeing just how diverse humanity is. In a time when everyone is struggling with personal problems, I know how monumental a simple volunteer act can be. One of my favorite acts of service is tutoring. I tutored an elementary-aged girl for two years in Fort Lee and I will always remember those two years as the most fulfilling. Education is so precious, and children are the most open to it.

    Last year at the beginning of the school year I was just starting high school as a freshman at St.T. I was excited about starting there because I had the chance to meet some new people and teachers. Most of the students I had already went to school with from kindergarten to when we graduated eighth grade together, and I went to school with a lot of the upperclassmen in previous years at Our Lady of Lourdes so, I wasn’t scared because I knew so many people already. Anyway, the first semester was fine. I as on the cheer team, I had good grades, and kept them up, and i was gone almost every weekend hanging out with friends. Then the second semester comes. I wasn’t going to cheer practices, my grades dropped, and I missed so many weeks of school

    When I was three my mom threw me into the cruel frozen tundra of school. Eleven years later I walked into worst place for anyone can go… HIGH SCHOOL. Tucker High School was dark and gloomy with many creatures roaming the halls some were good, but most were evil. Within the good were my squad: Ebaa, James, Grant, and Sam. They could be compared to my eyes leading me to my destiny. Students in the schools are the same as coal in many ways. They have dark minds, ruin the environment, and are very combustible if you light a match (gossip). Another similarity is that there are patches of diamonds, one in a million coal's that were refined enough over time to become beautiful. Those diamonds are my squad, but were going to have to dig a bunch of coals to shine our light. Gosh, it's going to be a pain!

While in the classroom the teacher allowed me to help with children with their work, read to them and help them with anything else that they needed.
