Undergraduate / Common app- volunteer for international students [3]
Please critique and I will be doing the same for you, thank you.
plot: Please briefly elaborate on one of your extracurricular activities or work experiences in the space below (150 words or fewer, 1000 character maximum
Naturally, students can sometimes stray away from volunteer positions; claiming that they do not offer anything in return. My premise is around the notion that benevolence of knowledge is as important as receiving knowledge. By following my ideals, I volunteered my time to international students in an effort to help them assimilate into the culture of the United States.
I would speak to them individually and work on their vernaculars and word usages: sharpening their skills and improving on their lack of confidence to speak English. The students embraced and accepted the change from their home culture which proved to be mind-opening to myself. By the end of the program I had felt comforted knowing that the students left knowing more that they entered with.Sometimes, watching the success of others offer success to thy own. I could not have thought of a better donation of my free time.
thank you again for all your help
