When I graduated, I decided to pursue my interest. I took up a Business Intelligence job at Visual BI Solutions – a leading SAP BI service provider. I started my career at Visual BI Solutions as a BI

With me being able to gain the working experience after graduating, there were also times at NCSU where there were academic opportunities waiting for me to take. Those consisted of becoming an undergraduate teaching assistant and be able to do independent research both in the field of water quality. Opportunities like those allowed me to be able to help others better understand a field that I enjoyed and also allowed for me to grow on the same subject as I learned something new every time. If given the chance to help educate other on a topic that I have a great passion for, it would be an honor to do

I have worked in four large organizations with an average lifespan of four years per project. During life of projects, I oversaw the establishment and management of the project coordination and technical teams, and, provided overall leadership in many project departments. My main functions focused on technical advice, management of the design, planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of all components of the project that included; program development, capacity building, and advocacy. I ensured adherence to the work plans, programmatic and financial reporting requirements; managed country and field offices, and, ensured their efficient operations. I supervised and

In August of 2007 I decide to further my education and attend classes at the University of Phoenix. I was in customer service as a bartender and waitress and have three children. I had my children young but knew I had the potential to improve the quality of my life and apply personal experience in my field of interest. Since personal experience was not enough, I knew I had to get the credentials to pay forward.

While attending both GMU and NVCC I have been working close to or at full time. This has not only had the impact of me needing to balance my time between the two, but also taught me the value of finding real world applications for the knowledge that I’ve attained. While working at my current job at Trader Joe’s, I have been able to use knowledge that I’ve learned in both my general education and degree specific classes to make me a better employee and trainer. After having worked on a research paper about a plant of our own choosing (I choose apples) and how it related to humanity and what its history with us was, I was able to take both take both my new knowledge of apples and ciders and help people at work make more informed purchases. My education classes have also given me several skills in teaching people how to do new tasks and learn new information and I’ve been able to better teach our new and current employees about new ways we’re doing stuff in our stores and the items that we sell.

Now, as a mechanical engineering senior at California State University, Los Angeles, my strong record of academics, leadership, aptitude for research, and passion

After my first year at UND, I took a CNA class and became employed at a nursing home in Menahga, where I am still working. At this job I was able to experience patient care and begin to see the benefits of helping patients improve their lives. In my time after High School I have also had many other valuable experiences. I have been a Camp Counselor at two, 1 ½ week Confirmation Camps for our church. At these camps it was mine, along with other Counselor’s responsibility to teach the younger teens about how we believe as well as demonstrate how to be respectable adults. These camps allowed me to use and develop my leadership skills and also created memories that I will never forget. I have also shadowed a few different Medical Professionals, in order to better understand the world of medicine. Dr. Dan Smith is a General Surgeon who lives and practices very near to where I live. I was able to shadow Dr. Smith for many hours and built a relationship with him. He showed me some aspects of the medical field that I may not have seen elsewhere. My life has been far from typical, but I do believe that each of my experiences has made me both a better person as well as a be

Finally, my career moved back to teaching. It began with a substitute teaching and a long-term sub position as an EBD English Teacher. I found the experience to be very rewarding. I learned that there was a greater ability to get to know my students and a chance to make a more significant difference in students with special challenges.

When I arrived the job wasn’t exactly what I had imagined, a common experience for many expats. I ended up teaching at a lot more locations than the university, but I think it was good experience for me. Having the opportunity to teach at other places let me try my hand at teaching a variety of different age groups. After working at my first job in Changchun for a year and a half, I changed jobs to work at Rutgers Newark Institute in Northeast Normal

I need to take Eng 3050 this Fall 2015 in order to take Winter classes and graduate on time. I took ENG 1020 in this Summer 2015 and received grade Thursday midnight. Unfortunately, all classes got full, but it is required for me to take it this Fall. This class fits my schedule because its online. I would really appreciate if you can add me to your

Though my academic career started later than most, I feel the life experiences I gained prior to becoming a teacher were extremely beneficial to understanding how the business world works outside of education. This has given me an ability to see things in a different light than most teachers who go directly into teaching at a young age. I graduated high school in 2000 and enrolled at Rock Valley Community College in Rockford, Illinois. During this time, I was a manager for a major electronics store. I learned a tough lesson about the ever-changing need for staff in retail and set my sights on becoming a teacher. I graduated with an Associates

I retired from the workforce a decade ago, after a lengthy accident rehabilitation. Prior to the accident, I was a contractual, basic computer skills instructor. My students were from a low income area in a major city. It was an enormously satisfying job. Learning computer skills was empowering for my students. Their empowerment was my consuming goal.

When I graduated from high school, I was admitted at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. I enrolled in the School of Business. My major was Accounting. I did so to please my parents and what I thought would be the best fit. I was not very happy, and I must confess that I was bored to death. After two years of studying something that I did not like, I changed my focus to School of Social Work. I was taking elective classes in Social Work/Mental Health Counseling and realize that this field held my interest and really represented how I viewed myself and the world. I was out from College for 5 years. Working with the Department of Social Services and numerous nonprofit organizations. For the last 5 years I have been working as a Social Worker for Department of Social Service Child Protective Service Investigator. I actual love my job because it is customer (client) oriented and I got to practice my counseling skills indirectly and directly with my clients I encounter on an daily
