Service-Learning
There is no question that my Service-Learning is going to be beneficial to my future and my career, as it is intended to do. However, at times it can be difficult to pinpoint exactly how it will affect my future. By preparing for my St. Ambrose visits through rehearsals and the singing of secular music, it is becoming more apparent that this experience is going to be beneficial to my future endeavors, especially ones involved in teaching and performing, by increasing my people skills and helping me to become more comfortable in showcasing what I know to all types of audiences.
Although I would like to think of myself as a "people person," I sometimes find myself having trouble interacting with people from different backgrounds and in different

    For my service learning assignment I chose to tutor science after school. I met with a 5th grade student twice for 90 minutes.

Because I am going to work as an ELL/Bilingual Polish teacher, I decided to tutor an ELL student to help her prepare for a science test.…

    Given that I have had previous experience with people from various cultures and differing worldviews, I may have more of an advantage than most with this topic. I have lived in group housing that taught me valuable lessons in dealing with those who have different ideas and values than me, and found that if I allow myself to be open and receptive, I can see where others’ perspectives originate, and find something worthwhile in other’s disputes. On the other hand, people always surprise me and you never can be sure what someone is going to do or say. Even typically mild-mannered people can become volatile or upset, especially when interacting with others in emotional circumstances, myself included.…

    In a society where individuals are interconnected like never before through the use of social media, it is still all too easy to forget about others who struggle every day from the impact of bullying. People, most often school-aged students, suffer in silence as they are relentlessly tormented, with seemingly no helping hand in sight. This issue, which is all too common in educational settings, was what I chose to focus on throughout my service learning experience in both my observations and my activities. Bullying in any of its forms, whether it be sexual harassment, cyberbullying, or its “traditional” manifestation of generalized harassment, relates directly to the topic of health and one’s physical and mental wellbeing. The impacts of bullying…

    Categorizing people is a two-sided blade. I try not to categorize, but I recognize the fact that we often categorize ourselves by gravitating to those we feel are most similar to ourselves. I have no problems speaking with someone that is quite different to me. I find those from different backgrounds, interactions are the most interesting and enlightening. Even in conflict, those things that make us all different are evident and sometimes we can even see the bizarre conclusions we make about someone based on where they are from, instead of who they are.…

    The tradition of didactic learning is naturally giving way to the new era of experiential learning which allows the individual to enhance the knowledge based on real interaction (experience) with the world of knowledge. As the name suggests, ‘experiential’ itself is a way of experiencing the patterns of accessing knowledge, with emphasis on individual reflexes, at micro level and macro levels. However, it should not be confused with experiential education which deals with broader issues of educational structure and objectives.…

    Experiential Learning

    Turkish students start studying English at exceptionally early ages. It became the policy of government to start English Language Teaching from early ages in 1999.English has been one of the most prominent subjects at kindergartens and private schools so far. However, when we examine closely, it is not so hard to conclude that this painful, expensive, and uncontrolled process has resulted in low oral and written proficiency. Students need to spend a year studying English in preparatory classes of universities to be able to reach high language proficiency (B2 level) due to this reason. The recent survey held by EF language schools between 45 countries show that Turkey is the 44th country after Kazakhstan. Although they say there is no guarantee that this particular proficiency score corresponds to the academic and economic goals set by an individual nation, the EF EPI does provide uniquely standardized comparison and governments alike when trying to evaluate the effectiveness of their English language policies as compared to neighbours (EF EPI English Proficiency Index, 2011). This case leads many new generation teachers of English to think about the problem more carefully and deeply.…
