~ Always looked at myself as an educator.
~ Everyday afterschool I would run upstairs into my room and play "school" with my stuffed animals.
~ Friends didn't like coming-over simply because they didn't like playing school.

Always offered to help teachers with teaching a lesson -- so much to the point that I was asked to stop because I was a "pest".
(The reason: I didn't like the way some teachers taught the class and I knew a "better way") -
Started Staffing
I work at Buffalo Trail Scout Ranch - located at the Davis Mountains.
Summer 2010: Office Manager and Radio Merit Badge Counselor
Summer 2012: Trail To Eagle Director (teaching Swimming, Camping Basics, First Aid, Citizenship...)
Summer 2013: Trail To Eagle Director, Camp Chaplain, and Camp Medic
Winter 2013: Program Director ~Learned valuable skills in teaching, classroom management, and being more "open". Multiple Intelligences Learned: Interpersonal, Verbal/Linguistic, and Musical/Rhythmic. -
Conclusion
My presentation is based of Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences simply because from a very young age I knew that I wanted to be a teacher. (Third generation of educators in the family)
Every singe person on this "blueberry-like" planet has a specific "intelligence" (sometimes more than one). Being mostly Linguistic, I have a strong skill in education and being interpersonal will help prepare me for the difficult task as a school administrator.
