I, Corey Davis, have decided to choose the field of education as my college study. The major I will be pursuing is Intervention Specialist (Mild/Moderate) K-12. I feel that being an intervention specialist suits me in a variety of ways. The main reason is I enjoy teaching others how to learn material. However, people having trouble at some point in their schooling, will need special assistance. I have seen, as well as experienced, this struggle firsthand. I started elementary school on an Individualized Education Plan (IEP). Another example is how I have assisted numerous people in my school with their homework. In addition to helping peers, I also have learned a lot by assisting my sister with her homework in a nightly/weekly basis. …show more content…

In addition, I would like each student to know that he or she can improve overall. While also improving one’s self-worth, without him or herself realizing it, however this can be difficult for a teacher to do but that is one challenge of the many challenges that is a part of teaching. I would also like the students that come through my classroom to know that they can learn as much as a general education student can. Every student can, and will learn; we will work together to accomplish that.

All students should be concerned with being at school, learning, and overcoming obstacles, to have any future they

Leadership is the ability to inspire and guide others toward a shared vision or goal. It is about creating a culture of excellence where people will be motivated to achieve their full potential, and where the collective efforts of the team result in greater success than any individual could achieve alone.

I learned that agriculture is in many aspects of daily life, even in something as simple as grocery shopping. So much goes into the ground beef or the corn that you buy. Someone raised a calf to sale or planted the seed with their own hands.

Helen Keller once said, “Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved”. Initially, my desire to pursue a medical career was inspired by my own battle with Stage IV Neuroblastoma at the age of six months old. I was given a 25% chance of survival due to the advanced state of my tumor. My chances of survival were low, however, I was fortunate enough to overcome the odds when they were stacked against me. As I grew older and my doctors made me more aware of how grave my previous illness actually was, I was amazed how my doctors were able to heal me, and I realized that I wanted to help others the way that my doctors were able to help me.
