School Psychology Program personal statement

To achieve this objective, the psychologist is required to partner with the relevant stakeholders including teachers, parents, guardians, and school administrators. Together, they are able to create a safe, conducive, healthy, and competitive learning environment that promotes the learning process. Personally, I am a focused, goal-oriented, and committed person who is passionate about helping learners achieve their full potential. I am not only approachable, but also social which makes it possible for me to nurture productive social networks through which I impart my positive influence to the learners to inspire them to attain their level-best in academics, in their social circles, emotionally, and behaviorally. Combined, all these attributes play a critical role in creating holistic all-round learners who are of great significance to society.

Another aim of my research was to identify learning institutions which offer undergraduate courses in school psychology. At this point, I was already determined to pursue a career in the area. With the little knowledge I had managed to gather, I searched for and evaluated the programs offered in different institutions. The objective of this evaluation was to enable me to identify an institution with a comprehensive and well laid-out program that not only covered the essential components of the course but also provided an ideal learning environment and adequate hands-on experience to facilitate skill acquisition and development. I used an elimination method to narrow down my search for my preferred institution. I will strive to channel my energy towards the advancement of my skills and competence in my chosen career.
