Volunteer work


I like to be a volunteer! Yes! I never think about that there is too much happiness during the volunteer work. That’s the reason why I spend time on it and really wants to do more!
Six mouths ago, I did not do any volunteer work. I always hear people saying that being a volunteer is very interesting. But now, I realize that volunteer work will bring you a lot of happiness.
My first volunteer work was in a community, my job is a teacher. That’s a rainy day, there are very strong wind on the outside. My classmate and I went to a community. I did not want to be late in the first time to be the volunteer, so I went there very early. But they did not open the door. We just can stay outside and crouched, because it’s so cold. Thanks goodness, the leader in this community came there soon, and she took some young children. Then we came into the house and stood in front of the warm air-condition. This was the best time in the world!! Soon, we warmed up and started to work.
I needed to teach a primary student, he is very cute and quite. But he is a hard-working boy because I saw that there were a lot of notes in his textbook. My job was to teach him some words, like big, small, long, and short. He learned it very fast, and he can memorize it well. So I can teach him very quickly. When I finished teaching him, we played together, I gave him my PSP, and he learned how to play games, to my surprised, he can learn how to play games very fast as well! He is a smart boy. I like him very much.
I did volunteer work for Ms. Bartell, too. Mike and I helped her to check student blog links. And cleaned the lobby, because there were a lot of things in the lobby’s corner. Those things were used in Halloween and Christmas’ party. Our social class’ teacher also helped us to buy McDonald. And we ate lunch together. That was very funny!
I remember that I also helped Ms. Bartell to translate a Chinese story. This story’s name is "little horse cross the river ". It’s very easy for me to read and understand in Chinese because when I was just 6 years old, I have already read this book. But if you want to translate it into English, it’s a little hard. Because some Chinese words can not translate into English words directly. I just could translate them into sentences.
I spend a lot of time on it, but I feel good because during these volunteer works, I learned a lot of things, I know that help other people is the same to help yourself, when you help other people, you can learn more things that you can’t learned before.
