PHI THETA KAPPA

by Andro Tadros 

I think in a way or another Phi Theta Kappa will really change myself, my thinking, my abilities, and I think with all these resources, knowledge, experiences, skills, that Phi Theta Kappa offers for me I will have the ability to change the process not only for my academic life but also for my personal life as well. So overall, Phi Theta Kappa will change my life and it will help me survive any difficulties that I am facing or will face in my school years and it will give me the courage to learn more, to know more, and to be a better person. Phi Theta Kappa or (PTK) is an international Honor Society for two-year colleges throughout the 50 states. Phi Theta Kappa was created to help students gain more skills and experiences during their years of study and to recognize and encourage the academic achievement of two-year college students.

Personally I think being in PTK will add up to my experience in many ways. One of the benefits of Phi Theta Kappa is that it will help me develop my leadership skills and to have me thinking about myself as a leader. Also, it will provide me opportunities to participate in service and fellowship programming. It will offer me to nearly 37 million in scholarships opportunities and I am going to have the chance to apply for any four-year college. It will give the chance to meet new people, to explore friendships and meet very important people that I will never have the chance to meet them anywhere else. It's going to assist me to make connections and to have great network with others which means it will improve my social skills as well.

For example, when I went to the new members orientation I already started to talk to some people and made connections with them. And when I Meet more new people at any actual event and meet all the members of PTK it would be a great opportunity for me to make more connections with others. So PTK will really help me create my network very strongly. In addition, Phi Theta Kappa is going to afford me the chance to travel and and apply for schools that I had never imagined before. It will keep me on track in order to graduate on time, it will give me the knowledge of how to become successful in everything I am planning to do. I’ll have opportunities to develop research and servant leadership skills by participating in honors in action programming in local chapter, and opportunities to become part of a network of nearly 3 million fellow scholars and servant leaders on more than 1,285 campuses worldwide. Especially, my dream is to get into medical school, and with all the events that I will attend, with all the understanding my brain will create, and all the leadership and fellowship skills I will get from PTK I think I am going to have the ability to be very successful in medical school.
