College and Career Essay

When I started with this research I knew where I wanted to go and what I wanted to do. I have always wanted to be a kindergarten teacher and always wanted to go to Panola College for my basics and then transfer to Stephen F. Austin State University and join the education program. I did learn about many other colleges and many jobs knowing what I already wanted to do; therefore, I wasn't really open to exploring, due to the fact that I'm already set on what I want to do and where I'm going to go. I researched many jobs and I'm interested in them, but I would enjoy being a kindergarten teacher more than my other options.

For my career research I searched kindergarten teacher, cosmetologist, and nursing assistant. These are all jobs …show more content…

Cyonna Holmes has attended Stanford and took 4 years of science classes to get where she is now. "I personally enjoy working in the Biomedical Engineering area." (Holmes). She and her classmates have built a machine that can keep a donated heart alive for 14 hours, compared to 4-6 in the cooler. The machine created by her and her classmates is very close to being put on the market.

Some of my career goals after graduating from Panola College with my basics and graduating from SFA from the education program will be to get out there and look for a teaching job. Beginning my teaching career will be a huge step for the beginning of my new life. I just have this special love for children, and I am ready to show the parents and kids how big my heart is. I really would like to stay close to home, but I am open to moving around if it's not too far.

This research didn't really change my mind because I had already basically decided what I wanted to do, and it was pretty much already for sure. This dream of mine is hopefully about to come true. I have waited a long time to make this happen and I am so ready.

    So with looking further into all of the different criminal justice paths I could go down and with my love for science I thought being a forensic scientist would be the perfect job. After I’m done with college, my successful will continue. Regardless my main goal is to just be happy, and never have to struggle for anything.

Just so I can have all the newest interior and the technology. I want to one day, have a family and a decent sized house in a big city.

    It all began when I started volunteering in Los Angeles, with my mother at Asian Pacific Health Care Clinic. Asian Pacific Health Care Clinic is a clinic for low-income families who were in need of vaccinations and other health care services. One day my mom received a phone call from the clinic and asked me to go volunteer with her. Since that day, I would have never guessed that it will impact my decision in pursuing my career as a nurse. I was assigned to help patients fill out vaccination forms, translate verbally, and assist the nurses who were in need of my help.

  • Educational Autobiography

    I was never going to be a teacher. My parents would tell you otherwise. As a child, I would spend my time playing school. I would write on my chalk board, create worksheets and homework assignments and take attendance. I would make my bedroom a replica of my safe haven. I guess I was destined to find my way into a classroom. I had also always loved to write, but I wanted to find a way to make money easily in the field so I thought journalism was the way to go. After the first semester of hardcore journalism classes, I concluded that the fast pace stressed me out too much. I worked with a career counselor to narrow down alternate fields of interest and all signs pointed to education. I took a generic introduction to education course and knew immediately that I had really come home in all senses of the

  • The Highlights of My Teaching Pedagogy

    Through my own experiences, and as enforced by others' opinions in the profession, I have found that teaching is one of the most rewarding careers. Not only are you placed in the position of instructing and guiding children and young adults through the life long learning process, but you are able to give back to the schools and communities which have supported your early education and experiences that opened you up to a bright future. In becoming an educator, I hope to someday share the knowledge and lend the helping, supportive hand that I was once given, allowing students to formulate their own perspectives of the multicultural society and world around them. Teaching is a career I have been interested in pursuing throughout high school, and as my experiences and study in the field expands, I feel that my desire to teach will grow stronger and develop more soundly.

    I am so excited about one day teaching our children. My goal is to be a positive influence on a child and I cannot imagine anything more important to do with my life than helping children. A quote from Herbert Kohl sums up my feelings of becoming an educator: “I believe the impulse to teach is fundamentally altruistic and represents a desire to share what you value and to empower others. I am not talking about the job of teaching so much as the calling to teach. Most teachers I know have felt that calling at some time in their lives.” My dream is to someday soon fulfill my calling.

    I have chosen to research about my future. I know that I want to major somewhere in Special education, but I am not sure where. I am going to research becoming a special education teacher and becoming a speech pathologist. Both are right down my path, but I am unsure of which suits me better. I am senior; therefore, this research is critical to the next step of my life. As of right now, I know a little about becoming a teacher. I have taken a class, Future Educators of Arizona, attended some conferences, and shadowed a teacher. I know that teachers get incredible joy in seeing the difference they make as students gain new insights, become more interested in a subject and learn about themselves. Becoming a speech pathologist will take more years of schooling and more classes in the science field. I am excited to learn more about each of these possible careers. I know for sure that the right career for me is in this field of becoming either a teacher or a speech pathologist.
