While attending the Service Learning site, Escuela Vieau, I met some really neat children. I volunteer in the sports and fitness area and I try to help the students learn new skills and talents. For example, many other students were lined up to play air hockey and foosball when I came across this student not involved with the others. After noticing this, I found six bean bags and asked the child if he would like to learn how to juggle. He was real interested and for the remaining half an hour I taught him the basics of juggling.
The following week I found the same student and he was real eager to show me how much he improved his juggling skills. I could tell that I made an impact on his life because his other friends were now interested in juggling and wanted him and I to teach them. Personally, I really enjoy working with the children at Escuela Vieau because I feel that I am making an impact on the student's lives. Returning to Vieau each week brings excitement into my daily life. The students and faculty are great and everyday there is a challenge that makes me feel optimistic about myself.
