Personal Education Experience

Growing up, I convinced myself that if I tried hard enough, I could learn every single fact in the world. Each day I sought out something new to explore, learn, or experience. For me, school was the best place for learning-where I could tap into seemingly unlimited resources on science, math, literature, or history. In short; I was in love with school. However, the excitement of learning every day and feeling fulfilled by the knowledge I was receiving came to a screeching halt in ninth grade

All throughout the summer of 2016, I had spent my time volunteering at the Chinese Christian Mission kid’s summer camp. After my summer vacation ended, I found myself really appreciating the accompaniment of children and wanting to continue my involvement with them. I seeked out for more opportunities to work with children and discovered an afterschool homework club through a friend's facebook post. After reading up on their website, I was interested in helping elementary school students develop

They had been told that I had a learning disability called slow processing. Which makes it hard for me to normally process and comprehend information that I'm being taught. After hearing this

Over time I’ve adapted to it with the help of the school’s faculty special needs area and taking more time in independent studies to keep up with others. During that time, I became more aware

Spring 2017 was the worst semesters for me in comparison to my entire college education. I returned back to college after leaving for six years. I started back spring 2016 at Cuny Hostos . I took 5 classes in the spring and Fall and one class over the summer. I maintained a GPA over 3.0. I had 3.54 the spring, I passed my summer class and I maintained a 3.94 for the fall . I transferred from there due to the distance and I attended my first semester at Brooklyn College. So many elements affected

During this time, I have volunteered to help with various activities such as calling bingo, serving food and supplying entertainment for my mother’s residents. These experiences have helped mold me into the person I am today. Through these experiences, I gained the feeling of happiness by spending time with children and extraordinary people. More importantly, my past experiences have excited

Finally the visuals I visualize as an Education Director, I was able to enforce as an Academy Director. I was given a promotion as an Academy Director at a child care center. My arrival at the new Academy was not with the requirements and desires of generating instant changes; instead I observed for a month, I asked several questions to the pervious Education Director, and I began to learn the staff members

our faculty and staff directly resulting in a healthier student experience. My involvement in higher education would not be complete without my experiences as an instructor. For the past four years, I have taught Evaluation Strategies for Nursing Education in the MSN Nurse Educator option. This online course provides students the opportunity to learn evaluation concepts, including testing and measurement in nursing education at the didactic, clinical, and programmatic levels.

When looking back at the beginning of this course I really did not know what to expect but, I am grateful for this experience and the lifelong lessons I was able to gain. As we discussed many times in this class one of the many struggles that teachers face is what one should or shouldn't do or what is illegal or legal. We agreed numerous times that this course

I have been accepted into Baruch College School of Public Affairs Master of Science in Higher Education Administration (MSEd-HEA) program. After my acceptance I was looking for opportunities to gain more experiences in Higher Education Administration.
