Why are you interested in school counseling?<br />
I desire to become a school counselor because I have a great<br />
interest in helping to guide children and adolescents –<br />
particularly those who are disadvantaged – through their<br />
education so they can increase their opportunities in life. I want<br />
to help students learn how to set personal goals, and also how to<br />
realistically reach those goals. My own background and<br />
experiences in life, work, volunteering, and education have<br />
provided me with rich experiences in human diversity and a<br />
variety <strong>of</strong> life challenges. Based in part upon my personal history,<br />
I have a unique perspective to <strong>of</strong>fer struggling students, and I<br />
hope to inspire the students I work with to never give up on<br />
their education. One <strong>of</strong> my most important life goals is to make a<br />
difference in the lives <strong>of</strong> children and adolescents, to help them<br />
recognize and reach their potential.<br />
