WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO HAVE INTEREST AND JOIN OUR ORGANIZATION? 지원동기, 자기소개T:

he inspiration that sparked me to apply for this organization was the fact that the profits from the videos are being donated to those in need worldwide. I thought it was interesting how we could support ongoing issues in the world by donating the profits from sharing a knowledgeable video with the knowledge and information we learned and shared with others. I found this channel when I was searching for helpful videos for my AP World History course to help out myself with the information that I did not fully understand. The videos I watched from “We Learn to Share” have assisted me to have a deeper knowledge of my course as well as it has intrigued me in this community. The idea that I could share the learning that I learned from school with others and help those in need worldwide influenced me to want to be included in this community as I’m a person who wills and enjoys assisting those in need. I’m a modest person that feels proud from practicing random acts of kindness and a mindful person who most of the time values others more than myself.

ARE THERE ANY PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE (EX. AP SCORES) OR SPECIFIC REASONS WHY YOU WANT TO SHARE YOUR KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE SUBJECT PICKED ABOVE?:

I would like to share my knowledge about AP World History and Chinese as I have gone through the AP World History course last year and scored an adequate score on the exam. I also have a great passion for the Chinese language and culture. I started learning Chinese when I lived in China when I was young and this gradually led me to feel interested in learning Chinese as a language and ended up as something that I wanted to major in university. I’ve got a certificate for HSK 5 and I’m currently working on being certified for HSK 6. I started IB Chinese early in Grade 10. I completed the IB Chinese SL 1 course last year and I’m currently starting my first year of IB Chinese HL.

WHAT DO YOU SEE YOURSELF DOING IN THE FUTURE? 본인은 미래에 어떤 일을 하고 있을것 같나요?:

I would see myself working as an instructor or a translator in the future as I feel passionate about learning languages and I’m willing to support others when they face challenges. I think working as a translator is influential as a translator translates documents written in a language into another language by properly interpreting culture or information, and passing it on to other users. As I’m a person that loves to help and serve others, translating a language to another language for someone would make me feel honored to work as an interpreter.
