Oxford Learning Centers, Niagara Falls is a franchised after-school learning institute. A typical shift is three to four hours in the evening with each teacher working with 3 students per hour. The students vary in age and subject of study. The greatest opportunity at Oxford Learning Center is the autonomy given to staff. Staff are encouraged to take advantage of experimental learning and to develop their abilities in accordance with the Oxford Learning Strategies. I learned from my employment at Oxford the necessity for impartiality in professional settings. Perceived equity by constituents or systematic bias in an information search debilitates objectivity. In a leadership role, if there is a favorite; there is a least favorite.Oxford provided me with experience in conflict resolution, effective communication, teamwork, practical use of motivational/influential theories and technical skills in mathematics. Each of these skills with be invaluable in every life role.In addition, Oxford provided me with volunteer experience; such as facilitating movie nights, hosting a charity barque, and attending other clubs and activities.
