January Hours

January Hours: 0

Total Spring Hours: 0


    This semester so far has been hard work but has been rewarding for sure even though we are only 2 weeks in! We started the semester off with learning about the reproduction module, which I personally have little knowledge about. This was good for me as it allowed me to learn a lot about pharmacologic techniques used for the system. After this module, we moved onto the endocrine module, which we are currently going through and I am a lot more familiar with this and I am enjoying it a lot so far. I believe my favorite part of the semester so far was learning about the estrogen receptors and all of the different ways that drugs are being developed for people's health. I have not been able to complete any volunteering this month as of yet, but I am planning on volunteering at the children's hospital, particularly in the cardiology department so I am looking forward to doing that as it will be super rewarding for me. I look forward to the rest of the semester, I believe it is going to be fun to volunteer as well as rewarding.

Volunteer Hours Completed - 4 hours My volunteering Journey with Vibha NPO Over the past few months, I had the incredible opportunity to volunteer with Vibha, a non-profit organization committed to empowering underprivileged children. My role was rewarding as I served as a tutor for two children from Bhutan, who had arrived as refugees. The experience was not only about teaching English and Math, but also about providing companionship and emotional support to these young minds in a new life. From the beginning, I focused on creating a safe and supportive environment for these children. At our weekly sessions, I could see their confidence grow as they became more comfortable with the subjects we were working on, especially Math and. I designed a personalized learning plan made for individual needs, ensuring that our time together was focused on improving their academic performance. It was rewarding to witness their progress, not only academically but also in their confidence to tackle t...

Volunteering Hours 4 Hours  Total Hours: 8 Hours October has been a fulfilling month of volunteering, focused on supporting two high school children in challenging circumstances. I dedicated a further four hours to tutoring then through Vibha, an organization committed to improving education access for underserved communities. During four lessons, I worked one-on-one with the two students helping them build confidence in both English and Math, Witnessing their determination always inspires me to work harder in my own classes as a Pharmacology student. I feel privileged to play a small part in their journey towards academic success. Looking ahead, I am thrilled to be in the process of joining LCMC's paediatric cardiac volunteer program, where I will have the opportunity to support children navigating heart-related health challenges. Being a part of their experience, even in a small ways aligns with my aspirations in cardiology and my commitment to healthcare. Volunteering has always...

November Volunteering Hours: 6 Hours  Total Hours: 14 Hours      This month was quite an eventful month for me. I was invited to an event which was held for some of the children who I have been tutoring through the Vibha community, as I have been talking about in my past few months. As a token of appreciation, I was able to speak to the wider public about the values and mission of the volunteering tutoring we provide. I did this event alongside my normal tutoring and it was truly fulfilling meeting the children that I have been tutoring in real life. It was also a true learning experience as I was able to showcase my vocational and advocacy skills to the public too in front of a large crowd. As for the rest of my hours, I was still able to complete my normal tutoring hours weekly, for the month. For my future plans, I am still planning on volunteering in the children's hospital but as I have had quite a busy month, I am planning on starting in December as I woul...
