Community Service

History • I was a nurse's assistant in the 2nd Hospital of Shijiazhuang, China. I helped with patient needs, medical help, and transport. I reassured patient families, handled patient medications, and worked with other nurses to set up kidney dialyses. I took care of patients in the ICU, made sure they were eating properly, and conversed with them to make them feel more at ease and comfortable at the hospital.

• As a volunteer at the AIDS Action Committee: Youth on Fire in Boston, I provided clothes, medical care, health insurance, drug testing, hot meals, and more for the homeless and people at risk of communicable diseases.I also suggested job opportunities, drug prevention enrollments, educational workshops, and more to help the homeless build a career. I also helped provide first aid to homeless people that arrive in the center and to those that need it.
• As a volunteer at the Tufts Medical Center, I shadowed the patho-histology lab learning about the process of analyzing tissue slides for cancer cells. I also conversed to patients around the hospital to make them feel more comfortable and less scared and lonely. I talked to them about any topic such as politics, jokes, horoscopes, sports, daily life, families, and more. Finally, I went around the hospital doing hourly checks on patients, checking how they were feeling and if they needed anything.
• At my local library, I greet families every time they enter and help them find what books they want to check out. I organize the library, placing books back when they are returned and rearranging bookshelves when the library was under renovation. I participated in book sales, handling money, making signs to put around town, and promoting sales. I order new books and CDs online, place them into the catalog when they arrive, cover them, and place barcodes and labels on them.

• As part of my town's community education program, I helped teach and prepare elementary students for the upcoming school year. I taught them English, Science (engineering), and Cooking. I helped them with their writing, reading, and understanding skills regarding prompts or books. I helped them create designs and build structures. I also used my prior knowledge in baking to help with cake decorating, chocolate creations, and other desserts.
• As a tutor in China, I taught Math, English, and Science to Chinese students who wanted to study overseas. I created powerpoints and fun exercises to teach and to help them memorize the information. In Math, I taught my students the English names and processes of geometry and algebra. In English, I taught them conversional phrases and practiced spontaneous speakings with them to help them become comfortable speaking in English. In Science, I taught them the basics of evolutionary biology and chemistry.

• I assembled science material kits for local elementary school teachers. I created binders and folders with directions for science projects. I combined all materials needed for science experiments in containers, such as newly ordered books, magnifying glasses, test tubes, batteries, pipettes, and more. I also reorganized the large containers of unorganized science materials into individualized bins in order to make it easier for teachers to find certain supplies.
• As a volunteer for a local non-profit organization, I helped numerous low-income families find necessary household goods for their new home. I worked with them to help them figure out spacing constraints regarding furniture or beds. All items are donations, so I also worked as a donor helper. I would greet donors and record what they donated when they drive up to the building with donations. I was also a furniture mover. I helped move all the items that families wanted to their vehicle and made sure that everything would be able to fit in.
