Blog 2 - Summer Mentorship

 During the summer I did my mentorship at the gym with my personal trainer. This was a picture of the first day I went to do my mentorship.I would also work out with my mentor at home, when we didn't work out at the gym.


I actually thought about doing my mentorship on health and fitness.

1. List the contact name, phone number, and organization of the person with whom you volunteered.

     The name of my mentor and personal trainer is Christian Velez. His phone number is (626) 549-8412. My mentor is a personal trainer at Spartan Fitness.

2. What qualified this person as an expert in your topic choice?  

     My mentor helps me understand the diet that in need to maintain my healthy life. He also teaches me Intense works out that also help me maintain my healthy life style.

3. List three questions for further exploration now that you've completed your summer hours.

     Question 1: Is it necessary to eat or drinking protein after a work out?

     Question 2: What should one eat before and after one works out? And what exactly should they eat?

      Question 3: When will you start seeing results of the training that you have done?

        

4. What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?

     Well I actually learned that maintaining a healthy life style can sometimes be quite difficult at times because not all people have money or time to work out at the gym; not everyone has money to buy all the healthy and fresh produce to consume. The reason I thought of switching to this topic was because it seemed interesting to learn about health.

5. What is your senior project topic going to be?  How did mentorship help you make your decision?  Please explain

   I thinking I am just going to stick with dog training or dog behavior. My mentorship help me narrow my decision because I was actually interested in health and fitness during the summer. But I definitely learned that this topic isn't for me because it requires so much time, dedication, and motivation to maintain a healthy life style. I rather use my time and dedication to a cause that helps others.

 

Blog 1: Senior Final Lesson/Interview Reflections

Dog training

 

Nursing

 

1.  What three lessons were most helpful for you to see, and why?
      The three lessons that were most helpful to me were the Clinical Psychology, Preschool Special Education, and Cardiology. I felt that I learned the most from these lesson because the presentations were actually pretty interesting. I felt that presenters were actually into their topics, whereas other peoples were dry and boring.

2. List one thing that you learned about the senior project in interviews that will help you get off to a good start?

     One thing I learned was not to procrastinate as much. If you procrastinate on Senior Project you will start to fall behind. Then you will have so much work that it will be come so stressful for you.

3. What topic(s) are you considering, and why?
      The topics that I am considering at the moment is Dog Training or Nursing.

     

4. What EQ do you think might be interesting to consider in guiding a project like this? (Please don't worry about any sort of formula...we want this question to come from your genuine interest).

    Dog Training: What are some ways a dog can be successfully trained?

     Nursing: What are some ways nurse can help and care for a patient?

5. What are some ideas you have about finding summer mentorship?

   Dog Training: I was think of searching for places or people that I know that train dogs. For example Petco or Petmart

Nursing: I was think of applying for Pomona Hospital or some hospitals around me d me.
