A Letter from the Future

Imagine that you are twenty-eight years old, and you're writing to a cherished teacher whom you haven't heard from in ten years. Tell him/her about your professional life. What do you do for a living and how did you get there? Consider the following: What schools did you attend? What special training and degrees do you have? Where do you work and what is the name of your company? What do your coworkers and boss think of you? What professional successes and awards have you enjoyed since graduating from high school.



Dear Mrs. Isme,


I know you're probably surprised that I'm writing to you because I haven't spoken to you in such a long time! I thought about you the other day and out of the all the teachers, you're the one that I felt I had a relationship with. How have you been? Are you still teaching? Well I've been doing extremely well over the past 10 years. Since graduating from high school, it's as if time just went by in the blink of an eye!

After I graduated, I attended Fordham University and majored in Pediatrics. I did that for a couple years while I interned at Montefiore Hospital in New York. I interned there about 20 hours a week then I held a job at an eye physicians office. Managing my time between school, interning, and working was a big struggle for me for awhile. I did that for about 5 years then I decided to get major in business so I went to Du Bois Business College for an additional 4 years. That was tough, but it all worked out! After I finally got my degree in pediatrics and business management, I worked at Montefiore for about 6 months and by the end of those 6 months I finally had enough money to start up my own practice. My aunt is a therapist and my cousin is a lawyer so they helped me out incredibly over these last couple months. My practice is called "Advanced Pediatrics." I set out to help families that can't afford for medical procedures, medicine, or anything they may possibly need for their children. With the help of insurance companies, we have managed to make all ends meet so everyone benefits from it without my business struggling due to lack of funds. I love it because I'm helping people that can't help themselves. Regardless of if they have a penny to their name and has a sick child, they can get treatment.

After a couple years, I want to find doctors who have degrees in medicine so hopefully we can get a practice open for adults who need medical treatment also. A lot of people I've went to Fordham University with who are currently doctors now have already told me that they would love to be a part of what I'm doing, so hopefully all will go well.

Well, I hope everything is well and I hope you write back soon! It would be great to hear from you!


Love always,


Brooke Garcia
