Education for Brighter Futures

Team Name/Location

Rachel, Potrero, Costa Rica

My CAS project consists of volunteering weekly at Abriendo Mentes as a Youth Programming Assistant. This means that I help in the English and Computer classes during the after-school program. I want to help others discover a passion for learning and make a long-lasting difference in my community.

What I like:
I really like to dance, especially ballet and jazz. Whenever I am feeling stressed about something I am able to express how I feel in that moment. It's also a really good form of creative expression because there are so many different kinds of dance and they are all very unique. I also really like to read. It's a way that I am able to use my imagination to focus on something other than what is on my mind at the moment and I am able to learn more about the world around me.
What I Do:
I am determined to always put in my best work into whatever I'm involved in. I want to make sure that even if I am working on something that is not a strong skill of mine that I am always trying my best. I also think that I am a good listener because I always put in effort to try and understand what people are trying to say. I always want to be understanding of how people feel.
What I Want:
I want to be able to encourage and empower others for them to be able to change the world. I hope that through my project I will be able to educate the young minds of our community and show them the importance of having a good education.
