Good afternoon,

I am interested in the full-time Consultant position to support Chinese high school students and their families apply to US high schools, colleges, and graduate schools.

While I am new to China, I have learnt through communicating with parents of my students that writing skills and critical thought process are primary concerns in their child’s education. Another priority for parents is to have a parent-teacher relationship with open paths of communication to better support their children reaching their educational goals. During my own educational experiences at college and university, I had the opportunity to help international members of my cohort who struggled with writing essays and applying new knowledge to practical …show more content…

Skills and Qualifications
• Traveling to schools/cities within China.
I have only been in China for five months and am excited to explore the country and meet new people.
• Bachelor’s degree from a U.S. college or university.
I am Canadian with a Bachelor degree in Social Work with a minor in Political Science from McGill University, which is rated the top university in Canada. The Social Work Undergraduate Degree program at McGill University is the most competitive program in Canada as it only admits 50 local and international students per year.

Part of my belief system is that one must continue to learn throughout one’s life, both through academics and life experiences, to reach one’s fullest potential and enjoy life to it’s fullest capacity.

As a social worker I have learnt that sometimes we need a help accomplishing our goals.

I have dedicated my career to public service and supporting clients reach their

Modern social workers are frequently tasked with certain objectives by their agencies, which leave little room for any work beyond specific treatments and timeframes (Gitterman & Knight, 2016). Although social workers are bound to the set of ethics put forth by the NASW, practitioners are often limited to focusing on the issues of the individual rather than the larger societal issues that may be behind those concerns. Additionally, many social work students end up working in direct practice, rather than macro work. There is a need for social workers to engage at the macro level in order to facilitate community organization and empowerment. Critics suggest this theory may not take into account the unique experiences of each individual and perhaps key characteristics of the individual or group are not taken into consideration (Sadan, 1997).

Hearing negatives from service users at times made me feel that it was impossible to achieve as a social worker as I never heard any positive feedback. I do feel it would have been beneficial to hear from someone who was really happy with the support that they had received from social services just to give us the incentive that it is possible to make positive changes. However, I feel that I am now more determined because of negative feedback to be a positive influence when I become a social worker and be the best that I can be. According to The New Social Worker (2016), It is important to be mindful that hearing from service users and their advice on how we should be as social workers is their view and opinion on what they fell would have been best for them, everyone is a unique person and will require different services and tactics in every

Considering that, the situation is difficult, as the object of social help is personality that is understood as a unique and solid system which is dynamic in itself. So the social worker in the process of social help encounters himself with the challenge to help a person to primarily restore his worthiness which would let him to solve his problems and not, conversely, resign and live with them. Yet the social work actually still impresses with its aspirations more than with concrete and tangible achievements or prestige (Kavaliauskienė, 2005). The objective of a social worker is noble, but often he confronts himself with unsolvable tasks. This situation raises because of the twofold orientation of social work: on one hand, it is directed towards a person, but on the other hand, to the society; that is, the direction goes towards a whole and towards its part – the community and the individual – by trying to reach their interaction and consistency.

As social work professionals, we have a commitment to advocate for our clients. Because of our advocacy commitment, we also should be committed to social justice. Change cannot happen overnight; however, it also cannot happen if people are not willing to speak up about the things they are passionate about.
