Volunteer Experience
Rachel Zhao 10-E May 1, 2009
Americans always say:” I know what I am doing.” The main spirit of this sentence is set up your goals and perseverance to keep doing it.
At the beginning of the term 3, I set up a goal to encourage me to help more people as possible. I will never forget March 15th this year, when I went to Amity Bakery to help children who have mental problems to make the bread and cakes. Two Grade 11 students and I went there at 9:00 o’clock. First, we changed the clothes and ware the baker clothes. Then we chosen the bread that we wanted to make. The teachers started to prepare materials and put everything into concrete mixer. We turned off the concrete mixer until everything in it was become yellow and sticky. The teacher got all the stuff out of concrete mixer and put on the table. When I waited all the stuff become cold, the children with mental problems were coming. Two of them looked cute and they followed us. The teacher taught us how to make it and we corrected children’s posture. After that, we all made the pastes into small balls. The small balls were not like the ball we always make. We must practice more then can do it. Two children studied very slowly. We passed on knowledge or skills in hands-on fashion. They did not speak but used their faces to show their happiness. I looked at the children’ faces and helped them more carefully. One movement you needed to teach the children ten times. It was a tough work for me to teach them. The teachers there looked more patient than us. They took a good care of the children just liked their children. I admitted of them. They devoted their life into this career. It was not easy for them. If you always stay with people who have mental problems, you may get psychology disease. So, we needed to give more love to these children.
Our society need more people like us to take care of children. Through they have mental problems, but they still have hot hearts. They know how to thank to people who help them.
I remembered another volunteer experience. On March 14th this year, when about twenty Danish students came to visit GCA. I was lucky to be a guide for these students. My job was to take them traveling around our school for two hours.
My partners and I welcomed two girls named Julie and Sofie. They were both very friendly and kind. So, we had a great time together. They asked me something about our school. The most things that they interested are clothes and shoes. They thought they could buy some beautiful, cheap clothes and shoes in Nanjing. So, we gave them addresses of places where they could go. After that, we took them to the post office to buy the stamps. Then we went to the food market near school and two girls bought two bottles of Soya bean milk to drink. It was a special Chinese drink.
The activity let me learn more Danish culture and was good for me to practice my skill to be a guide.
I am looking forward more volunteer works in the new term.
