COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
We had a class this semester called Community Engagement. In this class, we were supposed to volunteer under an organization of our choosing for around 2 hours a week. There's no other restrictions than that.
I decided to volunteer at Christ the King church, a catholic church that I've been attending since I was a child located in Kahului. I have an aunt who gives classes to kids, and I volunteered to basically be a teacher's assistant. I helped them with spelling and finding words and also learning about God and Christianity in itself. I took these classes when I was in 5th grade, so being able to watch and sit through it again is a good experience. I think this project is a good example of interpersonal skills. I've worked with my aunt and her students in teaching them about the classes. It was a good learning experience in understanding how to handle little kids. |
