I love helping out whenever and whenever I can. I just love helping people and It brings me so much joy and self-satisfaction whenever I can and do it. I love it when people need or ask for my help. So when an opportunity came up where I could tutor a first-year student with my degree. I picked up that opportunity without a second thought.
I have never been that studious in my life. Back in high school, I was barely getting by with certain classes, like math and science. I have never been that much of a left-brain person. I struggled with those certain classes because I didn’t know that it just wasn’t what I was good at. But then I found graphic design at Southeast Tech. Taking classes that were part of my major was so much fun and I became good at school. I always liked learning it just had to be things I found enjoyable. So when this new opportunity came out where I could help someone with something I’m good at with confidence I took it.
When I got the email I had to set up a time and then find a time to take a on the phone interview. I finally got to set up a time and when I got the call I was in my car. I was just getting back from having a different interview for an internship at Panther Primire Print Solutions. I can talk about how that goes next week when she said should would get back. So I pulled in and answered the phone and this very nice lady answered the phone. We started talking and she asked me some questions overall it went very well. She said that she adored me but wanted to give the one other candidate a chance at least a phone call interview too. She said that she would get back to me the next day and that she would let me know if she went with me.
And so the next day went without me thinking about it much. Until they got the call from her again. I freaked out a little but kept my cool and answered the phone. What happened next was so very exciting. She offered me the job! I was so excited I said “Oh Yay!,” She was also excited to have me and said she wanted to call me first to let me know I got the job. I was so excited that this happened to me and that I was about to get the job and be able to help someone.
So help when whenever you can, it’s so very rewarding and can bring not just the other person but you joy. Helping is a way of giving back to people and the community. Back in high school, I couldn’t help other people with school much. But now that I can, I will do everything in my power to help this first year pass his classes and get better in the process.
