In my third year at Oklahoma State University, I was provided the opportunity to become an undergraduate teaching assistant with the political science department. During the first semester, teaching assistants in the program were expected to follow a certain lesson plan, creating consistency among the program and providing for a stronger understanding of teaching techniques and skills. During the second semester, teaching assistants were given greater autonomy to create and implement their own teaching style and lessons. Using this autonomy, I was able to create lesson plans stemming from the main topics of discussion and utilize my training from the previous semester to provide valuable insight to students.- Assisted professors in the political science department by grading essays and tests. - Created lesson plans and then taught two weekly discussion classes to students enrolled in "Intro to American Government."

During my time with the Legal Aid Services of Oklahoma, I was able to acquire valuable skills that are necessary in the legal profession. The ability to draft letters, communicate with clients, and research legal problems are skills that cannot always be acquired in an educational settings. The Legal Aid Services of Oklahoma provided valuable insight into my future endeavor of becoming a successful attorney.- Assisted attorneys with drafting, correcting, and finalizing various documents for lower-income clients.- Communicated with clients concerned with legal hurdles.- Received one-on-one mentoring from practicing attorneys.
