Opportunities, life skills and an insight into journalism: Work Experience?

Hi!
My name is Olive; I’m fourteen years old and am currently studying for my GCSEs at Treviglas Community College, Newquay. As a regular reader of SurfGirl’s online posts, I would like to ask you to consider having me in a voluntary work experience placement for the week beginning Monday 30th June 2014.
I am an avid blogger, wannabe journalist and surfer in training, and as I have been considering pursuing a career down the lines of journalism I think that being granted the opportunity of working on a magazine such as SurfGirl would really benefit me and my career choices – working with you would give me an insight into the journalism industry and if it would actually be something I would enjoy.
I believe myself to be a hard-working, independent girl who is passionate about surfing, and, most importantly, writing. (I’ve also had some experience working in cafés, and would just like to mention that I can brew the perfect cup of tea, if that helps.)
The work experience scheme is not required to be completed by law this year, but my school has opted to request that all year tens must complete a week of voluntary work, and therefore I really hope that this week would be spent with you. I think that tis is a wonderful opportunity and would be extremely grateful to compete this week with you as it would benefit me (and possibly you) greatly.
Many thanks,

    A variety of texts and articles over the past few years have argued for the use of an alternative approach to teaching organizational behavior, one that emphasizes experiential learning. This approach "emphasizes an existential, emergent view for learning organizational behavior" (McMullen, 1979), where the role of the instructor is that of learning facilitator, responsible for designing experiences for students to base learning upon, rather than as teacher, responsible for lecturing on theory and concepts. While gaining wide acceptance, this approach has nevertheless created problems in the assessment of students' performance. Significant learnings in this model of teaching occur not only from the development of concepts, but also from the experiences themselves. McMullen (as well as others) has proposed the use of a personal application assignment to help solve the problem of performance assessment. This assignment is based upon the experiential learning model formulated by Kolb (1971). This model is discussed in more detail in the text chapter on learning styles.…

    Three words that best describe me are easy going, fun, and talkative. I have chosen these words because these are the things people usually tell me I am. The following beliefs are important to me friends, family, and pets. Five things that I find difficult are math, school, drama, losing someone close, and saying goodbye. I often worry about what’s going on in the world because it could be peaceful in Thunder Bay but in other cities people could be struggling. I am happiest when I am with my boyfriend just hanging out and watching television or when I am with my friends and family out at camp or having a family get together. My family background is very simple I have only ever lived in Thunder Bay. I have 2 brothers, a mom, a step dad, and a biological dad. My education in high school hasn’t been the greatest and I regret a lot of things in the past 3 years with my school. I am hoping to become a hair dresser and open my own hair salon in the future. The only work experience I have had is when I worked at Robin’s Donut’s on Frederica and James street. I worked up front as a cashier and stocked most of the merchandise. One of the hobbies that I spend most of my time doing is singing. I really love and enjoy singing. I started taking lessons 2 years ago and have stuck with it ever since. I also decided to take guitar lessons but I unfortunately gave up on it and sold my guitar during the…
