My Career Research Paper

Prior to writing this essay, I sat down with my mom to come up with ideas on stories that have made me who I am today. That is when I realized I have made more personal growth in the past four years of my high school career that I have before this period of time. I am ending my high school career with more knowledge than I ever expected.

I have been working on my academic career for many years now. I am currently in my third year of community college, and have come across multiple teachers who have helped and inspired me in many ways. A teacher not only teaches the content of their course, but life skills as well. They are kind, caring, considerate, and understanding of their students. A teacher who goes above and beyond for their students is one that will make a difference. One teacher who I believe has made all the difference to me, was my accounting professor.

Do you remember a time when you were young, maybe around first grade? The teacher asked everyone what they wanted to be when they grow up. Some children said they wanted to be doctors or firefighters or even an astronaut. I said I wanted to help others learn; I wanted to be a teacher. Going into my journey of senior year, my life has changed; however, my career path has not. I want to help children learn, to become the best they can be. Children, in my opinion, are the greatest assets that are in this world. In the teaching/education class offered by Four Rivers Career Options, I will understand more to be prepared with what will be expected in this career choice. After completing the experience of Four Rivers I will attend college and be ready to teach elementary kids. This will be the start of my career path.

The paper I am writing on my projected career will address the types of writing that are typically done by secondary school English teachers. These writings include, but not limited to, expository writing, essay and creative writing, and research papers.

Education is a requirement for a successful career. An education helps you make an informed career choice. Employers value a college education because it shows you know your goals and have the commitment the work hard and follow through with a goal. Lastly education teaches you the importance of time management which is a skill which you can utilize on a daily basis.

The thought of being able to create something, to bring into reality an idea that originated from the imagination, has caught and kept my attention since I was in elementary school. When I was young, I seemed to have a knack for taking things apart and putting them back together. Whether I was trying to fix a CD walkman or looking at the inside of an old computer, I genuinely enjoyed analyzing the different components of an object and learning about what made it work.

“You know my name, not my story. You've heard what I've done, but not what I've been through.” Quotes from Jonathan Anthony Burkett. I met my first friend to hang out with when I was eight years old. We played around like other kids everyday which lead me to realize that what people said is not real. Then, puberty changed my life which gave me my first job. Lastly, after having all sorts of experiences in my teenage life, which I found myself in love with the nature of sports, not a specific sport and this became my hobby.

Coupled with traditional beliefs in Pakistani society and my mother’s early marriage, she never had a multitude of opportunities available to her. In society when my parents were growing up education for girls was more of a formality so that the literacy rate would increase. There were no expectations for girls to further their education even if they wanted to and therefore there was not a lot of support of girls who wanted to continue into careers. She also married very early in her twenties and had children very soon after which ate up her time. So, my mother received her Pakistani equivalent of a high school diploma, but not anything more. Even though she did not receive a post-secondary education, alongside minimal

My college career was not very easy as an international student. I had to move from my country to the USA leaving my family and friends behind, once, in the United States, the adjustment did not go well. I was feeling lonely I had no friends at that moment had nobody to talk to or to share my feelings with, I had homesick still having it. I knew I had to be strong physically and mentally to fit myself into the American life, learn the language, and the culture. I kept on working hard and had in mind that I came here to pursue my studies and make my parents proud and I will be successful.

Growing up in a family of four children, my mother always wished one of us would follow in her footsteps and pursue a career in the medical field. Career opportunities today are endless. The is issue we face is choosing the career path that is right for you. We truly are afforded with the ability to be whatever we wish. I began researching the opportunity of becoming a Cardiovascular Sonographer Technician. I always admired my mother for being a nurse. Her care and compassion was is genuine. I want to have a beneficial impact on other people's lives the way she has. I have an unbelievable desire to constantly help others. With this characteristic along others, my opportunities are virtually endless. With the demand for Healthcare Professionals and alternative medicines on the rise, the need for adequately trained personnel is a hard one to meet. I want to be a part of the impact the medical industry provides.

My career goal has remained essentially the same since baking a brain shaped candy cake for my 10th grade psychology class. There have been many things that have shaped that goal into the specific path I have chosen since then. Prior to 10th grade, my career path was much less defined. I had the ideals I learned from my family, and a general idea of how I wanted to live, or more accurately, how I didn’t want to live. Early on, I had learned that one’s career is a huge part of what makes up one’s lifestyle.

You and a friend are planning a trip to a high altitude location five time zones away, to mountain climb for a week. The temperature will be below freezing much of the time. What precautions should you consider for the trip? Consider the different foods and liquids you should take for this type of trip.

My career goal is to become a proficient historian and history college professor that is engaging and makes history come alive, interesting, and still be accurate because I believe that history is still, and always will be relevant to the present. And without a fundamental understanding of the past, we will not be able to make informed political decisions about how our country is governed, who governs it, and interactions with other countries. One of my personal goals is to be a well educated person including: being fluent in one to two modern languages other than English, read ancient text proficiently in one to three ancient languages, travel frequently to learn as much as I can about the various modern cultures of the world, and to travel

When I turned 5 I wanted to be a veterinarian. My horrid lack of understanding that not all animals like it when you nap on them quickly changed that. By 10 I wanted to be a fancy business woman who wore pearls and heels and sounded powerful walking down the tile hallway. At 15 I decided to ditch the heels and sparkles and become an engineer so I could throw my hair up in a bun and get my hands dirty building things. I studied at an intensive 4 year engineering program at my high school. By year 3 I had once again changed my future plans. That year, while feeling lost in what my future would hold, I was accidentally put into a class where I was an aide to Special Education students. Regardless of the mistake, I fell in love. Since then, I have

A career is an occupation for a significant period of time that you want to do for the rest of your life. The career that I want to do is working with automotive technician and maintenance. The career field that my career is the Manufacturing and Engineering cluster and that is in the Skilled and Technical Sciences Field on the Nebraska Career Education Model. When I did took my Skills Confidence Assessment and my Career Interests Assessment I scored very high in this area.
