Mantzoroship Reflection

I am not one of those individuals who realized that a career in the legal field would be their lifelong dream from the age of six or even twelve, or to be honest, after graduating high school. I have been aimless for a majority of my life, and it shows. I chose to major in biotechnology, then after a few semesters, decided to double major in literature. I then went on to become president of an academic society focused on International studies. It was not until I took the course Law and Business in my Sophomore year with Professor Jisoo Lee that I believed I could be nothing else but a lawyer. I was enthralled by what others found tedious and boring, spending every available minute reading case files and figuring out ways to, as my professor

One specific skill was time management. In the fifth grade I was involved in so many extracurricular activities, and believe it or not I had to manage my studies with other outside involvements. I was involved in basketball, track, choir, first communion, boys and girls club, and soccer. I had so many practices that I had to attend throughout that school year, but I had a mindset that school came first. To get the opportunity to do everything I had to develop a great schedule. My mom taught me that there isn’t anything more important than my education, so sports and other family events came second. Another skill I picked up from this award was to be self-dependent in my studies, which meant I didn’t need help anymore. I didn’t need anyone to check my homework, help me study, or help me do my projects and

Ever since I can remember I wanted to become a lawyer. I didn't know what exact practice I wanted to do, but I knew belonged in a court room. When I was in middle school, I started the first debate team at my school because I researched and discovered that debating could help me become an effective attorney. My 8th grade year I researched the best high school in the Dallas Independent School District that could prepare me to become a lawyer; that turned out to be Judge Barefoot Sanders Law Magnet. JBS Law Magnet required their students to apply in order to attend. Their application process was rigorous; I had to compile a folder of essays and work I did over the years, write two times essays, and have an interview. After I did all of this, a

Throughout my Senior Project, learning the piano has taught me important skills that grown ups used in the real world. I have learned transferable skills that will help me beyond high school and into the real world of adults. Timeliness, that I start to use my habit of arriving early to meet up with my mentor because sometimes you don’t know if you’ll face traffic on the way or a road close, and being early or on time makes a good impression with the person you're working with. Another skill I have learned to improve on is prioritize an important event, that I learned to see which assignment is important and need to be done before having to start with the other assignments. Balancing both college class and Senior Project as well as Political Studies assignment throughout each week

I came to learn how important the legal system is to the sustainability of society as it is essential in upholding contracts, human rights, operation of organizations, and most importantly justice. Courses in my undergraduate studies have improved my analytical and critical skills as well as understanding of human institutions and values, but most importantly helped me to further solidify my career choice. I see myself contributing to society with my law degree in the future by upholding justice and therefore contributing to the creation of economically stable, just, and diverse

Having the ability to pitch and implement ideas is a real boost in self-confidence. Most of the projects were fully completed, the only exception is inputting all the program cards, in a highly effective manner. The placement help develops further career goals, and personal goals regarding the field placement. Working with Yina is great since she is super knowledgeable and hardworking. There are a few recommendations that could be implemented, such as having an office for the students or a longer length of time for the placement but nothing I would particularity stress on. After this placement I am excited to go into the tech industry and seeing exactly what it has to

Personal SWOT Analysis Strengths Working under pressure My previous employments at Compass and Sainsbury’s have involved working as part of a small team, and at times have required me to work under pressure. I coped with this very well and showed that I was able to communicate effectively with others to get the job done within the deadline. I have learnt to provide excellent customer care through my experience of dealing with a wide variety of people.

A talent that I have is knowing how to handle little kids. I have worked with preschool kids for 4 years about. Working with kids helped me gain a lot of experience on how to teach a certain kid a certain way. I have realized that every kid learns a different way, not all kids can be taught the same way because all the kids have different ways of understanding a certain subject. Or they have to be taught by working one on one, teacher to student. I have improved on teaching children, and that was my main goal, was to improve on that. So that way when I get older and have my own kids I would know how to teach them in a way where they can understand. I find my talent a amazing thing because working with children is not an easy thing. I believe

My greatest talent that I have discovered at this point is my natural ability in math based subjects. From a young age, I have always been someone who has had a natural inclination towards mathematics. It has always been my best subject, and it has also lead to me wanting to pursue a career in mechanical engineering. I believe this talent can also assist with me making a decent level of income in college as a tutor, especially following my calculus teacher’s recommendation of doing it. In general, math has been prevalent in all aspects of my life.

For this unit in STEP class some skills I have learned in this unit would be how to professionally debate, I learned what a socratic semminar is and how to do it with my piers, my class and I dug deep into bullying and what we can do to prevent it and change ourselves, I learned there is more words than the ones I use repetivatly, and I obtained how to do a K-W-L chart. Skills I have strengthened are my use of words, essays, and most importantly getting myself out there and involved daily.

I can contribute some of my skillset to the experiences I’ve had when I was younger. From when I was about 7 years old my dad and I had a tradition in which every weekend he’d take me to hobby shops and purchase what I know now to be, STEM related kits. One day, he bought me the Meccano-Erector SUPER CONSTRUCTION SET with over 600 pieces to build anything I really could’ve imagined. That set was extremely vital in discovering what I loved to do. I built the ability to be tactile with pieces and find it very rewarding to construct elaborate devices now. Then, this summer I had the amazing opportunity to help a 22 year old interpreting service, by the name of The Language Connection, with trouble-shooting and testing their online schedule program.

A skilled and results driven qualified solicitor with experience in working extremely challenging cases and representing clients in complex legal and litigation matters. Outstanding track record of achieving positive outcomes within limitations. Proven ability to logically and effectively analyse statutes, case laws and factual data. Provides concise, logical, objective and persuasive statements in both written and oral communication, whilst simplifying complex “legal jargon” into user-friendly terminology for clients. Proactive relationship builder.

selected for this position, I will not only be able to further develop my research skills and

Lastly, the last skill I have acquired over the years is integrity. In elementary school, I hopped the bandwagon and joined Girl Scouts. During my time as a Girl Scout, I learned a lot about being honest and truthful through the core values of the organization. This caused me to take a leadership role while in the eighth grade by coming head of the student council at the time. I had to make sure everyone was treated fair and the council ran to the best of its ability. Moreover, when I entered high school, I made sure to challenge myself to stay consistent and true with my beliefs. I did this by making sure to always choose the right choice and to stay true to myself. Currently, I have overcome the challenges that have occurred while growing up and have been consistent with my thoughts and beliefs.
