Why are you interested in School Psychology?<br />
As a child, I was able to personally benefit from the<br />
compassion, understanding, patience and knowledge <strong>of</strong> a<br />
child psychologist. Through the years, I have witnessed<br />
these same characteristics in the School Psychologists that<br />
are dedicated to helping every child experience success.<br />
Whether this success is academic, social, or emotional, I too<br />
have a desire to help children achieve their full potential and<br />
overcome the academic or emotional hardships in their way.<br />
I am dedicated to my own education as a School<br />
Psychologist to ensure that in the future I have keen insight<br />
and the ability to use the most creative, effective<br />
interventions in working with these children in order to<br />
instill a sense <strong>of</strong> self-confidence, enthusiasm, and a desire to<br />
learn and grow both at school and at home.<br />
