My first Semester at Cape Cod Community College has been a little tough. Attending the Aviation Maintenance Program is great and there is nothing to not like about this path. Due to COVID-19 I had to adapt to learning remotely. Luckily enough, we were able to get back into the hangars in August to continue working hands on. For starters, from the day I started and moving forward my classmates and I have considered ourselves a family. We continue to help each other in every and any way we can. Whether it’s help with a test, a car issue, and the list continues! The relationships we have made will last a life time. Spending time with my classmates, who also have the same passion, reminds me every day why I am here and will continue to move forward. I enjoy every second of it. Besides these moments I never lose interest in what is being taught. Whether it’s weighting and balancing an aircraft or aircraft drawings, it is always interesting and intriguing. It could never get old! Not only is the education wonderful, but our instructors find a way to make sure we are well educated and share with us their backgrounds and help us understand things we don’t because they have been there already. The instructors we have are very knowledgeable and continue to help us understand every detail every day. In conclusion, I cannot wait to continue to further my education. This has been the best experience I’ve had so far. I cannot wait to get into the field! It is hard to find the words to describe how wonderful this time has been. I’m beyond thankful for the MVYouth scholarship for accommodating my needs in such a short of amount of time! I would not have been here without all of you!
