my self reflection

My Self-Reflection

During this course I had volunteering experience. I volunteered at TAKATOF with group of five. It was very interested to do something which I had never done it. So with this organization I learnt many things and also it changed my mind regarding volunteering stuff. Before I thought volunteering is something that is not useful.

So with TAKATOF I had an experience in emirate palace we had an event for Khalifa dates awards. We had to cooperate with people with different nationality. And my main job was to organize and welcoming VIP people. So I had to arrange gifts chairs and VIP ID card.

Also there were people disabilities I had to register their names for giving them wheelchairs. I worked with TAKATOF for fifteen hour it was something that I never did before but this experience will stay in my memory for the rest of my life.

Also I tried to join some other activity with TAKATOF to have more experience and meet new people. Now whenever I see people volunteering I really respect them because they are helping not for money just for value of life and experience.

 I can’t forget those people whom were putting smile on their face and also the great people from TAKATOF team till now they are keeping in contact with me.

 I wish in future to have more volunteering with different organization so I can have great experience on different fields.
