“My favorite seminar was Green Chemistry 101 because the seminar helped me be more open-minded about future career paths. In the seminar, I learned about the importance of waste management in industries that use chemistry. Before, I thought I would do biomedical engineering. Now, I am considering chemical engineering because the study helps to address environmental problems.”
I founded a club at my school called Global Education Club, which promotes a tutoring program and reading program. I was motivated to pursue this project because I wanted to provide peer tutoring for students that needed help with various academic subjects. For the reading program, I wanted to foster a love for reading for elementary school children at my school. So far, I have tutored 4 students on various subjects including English, history, and chemistry. The reading program has benefited more than 10 elementary students. Although the club is still developing, volunteers have contributed over 50 hours of service. The reading program has helped bridge the gap between the high school and lower school students.
