The clear glass award sat right in the middle of my family's very growing trophy case. I was just as surprised as my friends when I first got it. "What? You actually do something for the community" they spoke with awe. I fell in love with volunteering since the first time I volunteered in the quaint fishing village of Steveston. When you get into the spirit of being a true volunteer, you never expect to receive acclamation or be awarded for what you do. You volunteer because you want to not because you have to (it's actually a very selfish thing). This is why I joined U-Connect, a youth-led, organized and oriented group. While many brought along their school friends, I came alone, I had to talk to people (eek!) if I ever wanted to succeed in the group.
Your prompt is "What have you learned from your various leadership experiences?". In your intro, the gist of your paragraph is a little bit fuzzy. It's not directly stated. Please remember these things in writing an introduction:
1. Introductory sentence (introduce the main idea using these strategies: definition, analogy, quotation,etc.)-- TOPIC SENTENCE
2. Supporting details( support your main sentence with relevant details through examples, proofs, and experiences)
Try to make your essay a little more formal. Avoid incorporating unnecessary expression (E.G EEK!) and also evade using too much parentheses when you want to add some details. In a certain case, you may use commas (,). Ex.When I first joined U-Connect crew,
a youth led organization, --
(a youth led organization)Note: Make sure that you properly place your topic sentence in the paragraph ( beginning, middle, last).
