Teaching My Friends

Hey, so I think my presentation went pretty well. Down side was that was the second day I had a presentation in a row, so I got blisters on my feet from wearing heels. But it’s alright I guess, I got a lot of compliments on how nice I looked.

My presentation was about saving; specifically, saving for college. I presented to my Health Occupation Students of America club during one of our regular meetings. All of us plan on going to college, and many to Med school, so I figured the topic would be appropriate.

I did my presentation in the form of a PowerPoint/speech, and I think it worked out fairly well. I don’t mind giving speeches; I’m not the kind of person that gets super nervous. I actually kind of enjoy the adrenaline rush, it’s like riding roller coasters or sky diving.

Many of my friends who were there for my presentation came up to me afterward and told me how much they enjoyed and learned from it.

I am so glad that I got the opportunity not only to learn, but also to teach. This is super valuable and pertinent information that all high school kids should have access to.

That’s why it is so awesome that we have an A Plus Federal Credit Union built right into our school. They focus so much on teaching the community, and especially high school kids since they have a branch at SMHS.

I definitely encourage everyone to get involved with the programs they have. Not only do you learn important information…. But they often give you money too! Seriously, don’t waste opportunities like these. It has made a HUGE impact in my life and has completely changed my outlook on a lot of different things.

College and life in general will be so much easier because of this opportunity I got to participate in the A Plus savings challenge.
