Medical Assisting Being a wife and mother of three; I decided that I would return to school to better myself and my family. Mostly to get out and be around people and to help in my community. When researching about medical assisting the article informed me about the future jobs and pay of medical assistants. Medical assistants complete administrative and clinical tasks in the offices of physicians, podiatrist, chiropractors and other health practitioners. Medical assistant duties vary within location, specialty and size of the practice.
At the end of my junior year, I was given the option of applying for a number leadership position that would allow me, if accepted, to lead my classmates in the upcoming year. Positions ranged from Residential Life Assistants, similar to RAs in college dorms, to Attaches, students who aid in the Department of Institutional Advancement. While some of my classmates were torn on which positions to apply to, I was not. I knew that I wanted to be one thing, and one thing only. That being a Teaching Assistant for my all time favorite teacher, Dr. Bruno.
Before leaving biology lab on December 6, I had the honor of interviewing the graduate assistant-teaching for biology 211 lab. During the interview I learned a lot of things about the teaching assistant like her background information and education. Her name is Lauren L and she is a graduate student at Iowa State University. Lauren has worked at Iowa State University for five semesters as a teaching assistant for biology 211 lab. She chose the teaching profession because she truly wants to teach and get some experience teaching undergraduates.
I always had an interest in learning about different sciences in High School, and knew I wanted to choose a career where I could help people. However, it was not until I was in my senior year, when my father fell sick, I realized my true interest was in medicine and the human body. The doctors would come into his hospital room, explaining what tests they were doing and what medications they were going to give him. My curiosity lead me to research the illnesses he was being tested for; forms of vasculitis. It was not until after numerous different tests and a lung biopsy that my father was diagnosed with the rare form of vasculitis, Churg-Strauss Syndrome.
Hi, I saw your listing for an Assistant and wanted to express my interest in the position. I recently graduated with honors from Ithaca College with a Bachelor of Science degree in Television-Radio, concentrating in Media Production. As you can see from my enclosed resume, I currently work as a Senior Administrative Assistant at the Fremont Chamber of Commerce, one of the most active Chambers in California, and have significant experience supporting high-level executives. Last year, I made my own award-winning short film, entitled ''Psycho.'' As a student at Ithaca College, I also ran the art department for the Ithaca College Television Show, ''Finger Lake Friends.''
Ever since I could remember, I have always dreamed of becoming a teacher. When I was little I would pretend I was the teacher and my friends were my students. For the longest time I wanted to get my degree in elementary education and become a second grade teacher. I loved working with younger children and second grade was my favorite year in school. However, in high school, I changed my mind.
#5 When I was a sophomore, I decided I would join the Careers in Education program at the Tech Center. I was not sure how I would like it, but I knew that it would help me decide what I really wanted to do after high school. Everything we have done this year has been great. Joining that class was a great decision and I am so glad I did it.
I have wanted to be a teacher ever since I was young. When I was in second grade I wanted to be a teacher so that I could write on the whiteboards. However, now that I still see teaching as a great career choice for me I want to teach for different reasons. I absolutely love to work with kids, and to see how they learn and grow. One example on how I was able to realize I love to see children learning and growing is through a Staff Development Program.
Reasons for entering the teaching profession Throughout my whole life, I had no idea what I wanted to do with my advanced education until my junior year of high school. I had a teacher that really related to my personality and talked to me about education and how much she enjoys teaching. I saw a lot of myself in her personality and she was a great fit for her role in teaching. When it was getting closer to graduation of high school, I knew that I wanted to be successful in my future and make a difference.
Throughout my educational and professional development, the question, “what would you do if money wasn’t an issue,” pops up from time to time. I ponder that question occasionally. If money wasn’t an issue, I would spend most of my time in community service, while furthering my education to become an inspiring teacher. I have a keen passion to learn and help others. Last year, I had the opportunity to join and serve AmeriCorps National Civilian Corps; it’s a domestic community service program that builds leaders and build communities and schools.
All students deserve and need a positive, dependable support system as well as an education in order to transition successfully into adulthood. A school’s primary objective should go beyond producing students. Their objective should be to produce men and women who are qualified and confident to take their next step, regardless of what it may be. In order to do so, it is of the utmost importance for parents, families, teachers, and counselors to work together to engage a child in not only the learning process, but the maturing process as well.
My plans to make use of my education to better myself are to attend school and earn a degree in elementary education, a field that will get me a job to be able to support myself and whatever my future holds. My education will better others because I will become an elementary school teacher and I will be teaching the future generations skills they will need to be able to develop as they grow up into young adults. This will benefit the community and I will be doing everything I can to leave it better than I found it. Goals i have fostered throughout high school are working with children every chance I get, and making the most of my time with them.
I have always known that I would go into a career that would pertain to the advocacy of children. When I started my education at Simmons I found a passion for working with high school students, and now, I cannot imagine doing anything different with my life. I currently work at a high school in Dorchester MA, and I wish I could be in the classroom full time. I know that once I graduate, I am going to be a high school English teacher. When I leave Simmons I’m not sure where I want to teach, but I know I want to work in an inner city school.
From my senior year in high school up until the day that I enrolled in the teaching program at BVU, a number of people told me that I should become a teacher. My mom, uncle, and other close family friends are teachers and they were all in my ear about doing it. For some reason I was stubborn and did not think that is what I wanted to do. This all changed while I began substitute teaching and coaching last year.
