Student
Houma,LA
Summary
Motivated student working toward bachelors degree in psychology. In January, will be a transfer student to Tulane University in hopes of continuing education towards bachelors degree and onwards to medical school.
Previously wanting to advance in the world of education, I have 10+ years of experience teaching, tutoring, volunteering, etc. in the world of an educator. After recently deciding on a change of course I've spent my time off teaching myself spanish, K-12 tutoring, reading many psychology and forensic psychiatry books, and becoming first aid and CPR certified. I also organized a book club, helping others escape from the overwhelming world of covid into their own safe places.
Prepared to contribute to organizational success using educational knowledge and personal expertise to achieve results for my future, and I am not stopping until I do. Ready to develop new skills and grow knowledge by gaining practical experience. Quick learner familiar with common software applications and research methodologies.
