Essay & Composition Writing
Application...2 mini paragraphs...please read
This needs to be PERFECT and I keep re-writing it, but I feel it's grammatically wrong (I never learned grammar in school for some reason). Mostly, I don't know when and where to put the commas.
I gained experience in the work force as an inventory clerk for Inventory Services of Canada. I also volunteered my time as a docent for Roedde House, a restored Victorian heritage house museum. Occasionally, I worked as an extra for Vancouver agency Hollywood North and enjoyed writing free-verse poetry in my spare time.
AND
I achieved Principal's List status for the first term of Grade 12 and maintained honour roll status for the remainder of the year. In my senior year I contributed to my school paper by serving as one of three student editors. Prior to this, I was active in high school theatre and received a certificate for Dramatic Achievement in the tenth grade. In addition, I participated in my school’s junior and senior choirs in grades 10 and 11.

Hi I wasn't familiar with the word 'docent' so I looked it up and found "A docent or privat-docent was a recognised teacher at a German university who was not on the salaried staff. It was often a post held by a young mathematician working for his habilitation ". Is that what you meant?

- Is that what you meant?
- Is docent a recognised term in Canada (or wherever you are applying) with another meaning or should you look for an alternative description?
- I gained work experience as an inventory clerk for the Inventory Services of Canada.
