What is one thing to improve our Society ?
Volunteering a few hours each week to some community activity is an
important way of investing in the future of our society. I chose to spend my
time working with elementary school children helping them to learn to read.
Developing good reading skills will help these students keep up with their
classmates, open new worlds to them, and help them succeed in life.
Students who are not good readers cannot keep up with their studies. They will
not understand the lessons; they will come to school unprepared; they will not
be able to perform. By learning to read, students will be on equal footing with
their classmates. They will be active participants in class.
Books on different lifestyles, occupations, cultures, or governments will open
new doors to students. Students who cannot read will only know what they see
around them. Students who can read will be able to travel to new worlds and
experience new ideas without ever leaving their classrooms.
Today, a person who cannot read is severely handicapped. A non-reader will
have to work at the most menial jobs. Readers, especially good readers, have
the whole universe open to them. They will have the possibility to learn any job
that interests them.
By volunteering to help an elementary school child learn to read, I am helping
him or her not only today, but also for the rest of his or her life. I am helping
them keep pace with their peers and explore the world and themselves through
books.
This makes us better people than others , therefore we at JBIT develop the same
personalities in our students, so that when they qualify their degrees and start
working somewhere they must have this SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE attitude.
