Summer Camp Counselor Personal Statement
Please accept my enthusiastic application for the position of summer camp counselor. I would love the opportunity to be an excited, and energetic counselor. I believe that my experience with my high school classmates and the skills I gained from different after school programs and internships would make me a good camp counselor with your summer program.
I m a sophomore at George Mason University studding computer science. Even though I do not have any experience with kids, I would be eager to contribute my skills, I can teach them Amharic, and tutoring them math, computer program and any science subject.
When I was in high school, I was involved in different after school community services and internship programs. I have worked at Latin Youth

    Being involved with Project 18 has impacted both the high school and the community throughout the last year. Project 18 also known as Political Action in which students volunteer for the community as well as candidates during the upcoming elections.

    My youth group has created a special place in my life. It provides me with Godly friends and a non-judging environment. After moving around so many times in my life it has become hard to make friends. I have been to many different youth groups and most of them I feel the need to pretend to be who I am not. Thankfully, at Rocky Bayou youth group I can drop my guard and I feel free to talk without feeling judged. Surprisingly enough, I have made multiple friends that are supportive, honest, and amusing. Rocky Bayou youth group makes me feel welcome and free to me without harsh worldly…

As I volunteered there, I helped prepare food for the players, I picked up the trash, and I gave water to the players after the game.

In the future, I would like to volunteer in a program that helps people who are facing cancer.…

    From this activity I have learn that just attending university and receiving grades is not all that is required to attaining a future with a pleasant job. Volunteering and work experience are also necessary, therefore, I would consider joining a volunteer or work opportunity while attending university. The next step I am going to take toward my preferred future is to obtain a job, I will do this by applying to jobs that require communicating with people, working with children or opportunity for networking. Another step that I can take is to volunteer at my old high school, I have already worked at an elementary school, and therefore it would be nice to see if I would have a similar or dissimilar experience at the high…

    As a first-generation student, I am significantly influenced by the Student Affairs staff at my undergraduate institution. When I arrived at Ramapo College, I quickly realized I was not prepared for college-level work, if it were not for the Educational Opportunity Fund Program, I would have felt lost and would have struggled both academically and financially. Throughout my undergraduate career, I have had many Student Affairs professionals guide me to academic success and personal development. As a result, I made the conscious effort to work with the minority students on campus and accepted the position as a Resident Program Assistant for the EOF program. I worked with a diverse population of students where the majority came from low-income communities who had the potential to perform college level coursework. While…
