At a service academy, the people that attend are there to get an education and train to be an officer in the military. They are there to gain valuable life and military skills. In my opinion, that is more appealing than any college. I want to surround myself with people that have the same goals and aspirations as me, and I believe that the Academy can provide that. During the week that I was at the Air Force summer seminar, I learned about life at the Academy. I knew going into that week, that I would either love it or hate it. Throughout the week I spent time doing physical training, going to classes, and learning about life at the Academy. After that week, I knew I wanted to attend the Air Force Academy. I knew I belonged. I want to attend…

The first service learning project I completed was in 2006 which was a participation in tutoring a year six student in the Aquinas College junior school. This tutoring was during winter. After the first week I found it difficult to complete three sport trainings a week (1 in Melville), an after school guitar lesson, a hockey game on Friday nights plus the tutoring program, I thought I was going to have to stop the tutoring and complete service learning in a different area. But after the first week of tutoring I found that tutoring became a priority, I felt that Ricardo found the tutoring much help and seemed to benefit from it. I finished the tutoring program without missing one session.…

Service learning is a valuable way for students to engage with their communities. When tasked to incorporate a service learning activity into my English class I was faced with a few difficulties. Language Arts standards are very complex and cover many different areas including: reading, writing, speaking and listening. Service learning lends itself readily to the speaking and listening areas, however, I decided that I would attempt to build a unit that enriches student learning in all four domains of the English/Language Arts curricula. The following unit, which I titled the “Changemaker Unit,” is the result of this process.…
There are many benefits and services offered to those that chose to serve our country. Some may say that what is offered is not enough for the sacrifice that these men and woman make. Most service members are humble and appreciate anything that is offered to them. The Veterans Administration is a great source of information on some of the benefits that they are entitled to. Some of benefits are home loans, education benefits, and compensation for disabilities.…
Coming into the project I was looking forward to interviewing a veteran, at first I really wanted to interview a World War Two veteran. I thought it would be very cool to sit down and hear an untold story of a true American hero that fought in one of the most memorable, and one of my favorite wars. But as I continued to search for a World War Two veteran I couldn’t find one so I joined groups with Tyler, Jose, and Mauricio. They had then told me that we would be interviewing Tyler’s stepdad, who was currently enlisted. Of course my dream of interviewing a word war two veteran was tossed out of the window. Then I had thought about it and to hear the story of a national hero that is serving in the War on Terror currently would be pretty cool. Although I didn’t get my World War Two veteran, I was still pretty stoked about hearing our veteran’s story.…
We all have different cultural education specially in Miami where many Hispanic people live, but we all not have the same background, by the contrary even though we are a Latin community we came from different countries and have a diverse background. In my experience as bedside buddy volunteer at the Nicklaus Children Hospital, I have had the opportunity to interact with people of different cultural, ethical and socioeconomic backgrounds, in which I have been trained to create and maintain a respectful environment among employees and patients. In addition, I have learned to adopt certain behaviors that communicate respect to others. By being a volunteer in the healthcare industry, I play a significant role when it comes to embracing cultural…

They offer help for the entire family by incorporating their highly trained family development specialists along with daily volunteers so the families are able to build a solid foundation at home.…
On August 18, I attended a Jewish service at Temple Emanu-El in Westfield, New Jersey. First, there was a prayer circle dedicated to the victims of the Virginia riots. Afterward, there was the weekly Friday service at seven o’clock. It was a special experience to witness the love people showed during both the prayer circle and the normal service. The events practiced during the Jewish service reminded me of my own religion, Christianity. I chose this event to attend because Judaism is the other most popular religion in my town, but I felt as if I did not truly know anything about it. I wanted to expand my knowledge of religions other than my own.…
