Recommended: The effects of charity on a person

I have a passion for helping others. If somebody asks for help either in the classroom or just for general advice, I always take time out of my day to help them even if I am extremely busy. The fact that I can be of assistance to others makes me feel good on the inside. Seeing others succeed is important to me. I always help my friend with his math homework because math is not his strongest subject. Helping him work his way through the problems and helping him understand the concepts allows him to be more successful in math class. Knowing that he is becoming better at math brings me a sense of joy. Aiding others has created a stronger bond between that individual and myself. I come from an uneducated background so I know what it is like to

    My experiences with tutoring others has taught me that it satisfies me to help others understand and learn. As you teach others you learn about the different ways you handle situations and solve issues as well. I’ve always been the person that my classmates come up to for help, but it wasn’t till grade 10 until I officially started tutoring math, mainly Pre-Calculus 12.

    I am dedicated to helping out our community and school, because it warms my heart and soul. Seneca said in about 40 to 60 A.D. that you should “be silent as to services you have rendered, but speak of favors you have received.” In other words you should not boast about the numerous projects you have accomplished and how much physical work you executed, but rather pride yourself on how you helped people in community and school, and how you have affected their lives with positive means. I feel life is joyous and it should be the feeling everyone illustrates, and this is exactly what keeps me functioning in the stressful world today. I find comfort in helping others to make their lives a little more like heaven and this comfort motivates me to perform copious service projects to the best of my capability whenever I find the time. Time is fair to the rich, the poor, and to every race, because time is equal and gives everyone 24 hours daily to accomplish their required tasks. Because time is so valuable and I am occupied by difficult advanced placement and honor classes and juggle school, clubs, sports, and friends, I joined Key Club, a high school division of the adult service club, Kiwanis. Key Club opened new doors to make every extra minute count towards helping others.

    There are countless people who aspire to help people in their lives. However, if you think about it, nearly every career helps others in some way, shape, or form. Teachers, scientists, policemen and various other careers aid people in different ways. I, like many others, have always known that I’ve wanted to help people. Yet, I also want to do more than that. I want to help others, but also save others- emotionally or physically, mentor others, inspire others, and be there for others during their most vulnerable times. This is who I am- and I have always been this person. In first grade, I ran a lemonade stand at my school for the Make-A-Wish Foundation; I got my third grade class to raise money for starving children; and I put up with bullying throughout middle school because I befriended a girl who had trouble making friends on her own. The quality of pure selflessness and care for others that I have always possessed would allow me to do something great with my life- it just took me some time to figure out what.

    I help people in school if there struggling because I never like to see my fellow classmates to be streast. First, helping classmates puts less stress on the teacher. This lets the class run smooth and consistent throughout the day. Also, when a classmate has dropped there stuff on the ground I stop and help pick up the classmate has dropped.This makes the hallways less hetek because stuff is not flying all over the place and it keeps people from getting hurt. Lastly, I always ask the teacher if they need any help if I finish early instead of sitting around and doing nothing. This gives me something productive to do after finishing something instead of just sitting around doing nothing. That is only one reason why I think I should be 7th grade boy student of the year.

    There have been tons of things that I have learned and been taught in my life, by a number of people such as family, teachers, or even friends on occasion. The things they taught me vary from math and other related subjects to just some truly simple yet meaningful life lessons. However, there is nothing quite as unique, quite as special as a person teaching themselves a life lesson. It really is an amazing accomplishment for a person to teach themselves something. It is not quite as simple as another person teaching them something because it is not just the transferring of information from one person to another. The person instead has to start from scratch and process the information they have in their mind in order to come up with a new thought

    Getting children to work together on projects which require problem solving is a great way for them to interact with each other and learn mathematical concepts on the way. It will also help them to boost their communication skills. Teachers can also facilitate learning by scaffolding the children’s learning and offering guidance when needed. Getting children to talk about what they are doing and what their plans are actually helps them to learn. Through their projects, children will learn to describe the mathematical concepts that they present using different materials. For example, drawing a house for art class, they learn the names of the different kinds of shapes that make up a
