- I am currently a Vietnamese first-generation student at UF. My parents and grandparents all originated from Vietnam as immigrants. Being the generation to live and grow in America, I am commonly explaining or translating concepts or terms in America that are unfamiliar in Vietnam. As Vietnam is considered a developing country, my parents ask me to one day give back to Vietnam for the opportunities I get in the U.S that otherwise would not exist in Vietnam.
- I am offering teaching services regarding technological literacy through in-person tutoring.
- I am offering this service to individuals who wish to better their life by making tasks more convenient through the use of technology.
- Customers would care as simply knowing that a faster way to complete something exists is appealing. Some want to minimize inconvenience in their lives.
- Translation is one of my core competencies. I do not mean from one language to another but in the sense of taking complex concepts or ideas (relatively to the client) and simplifying it so they can understand. This especially important when trying to teach people terms or functions relating to technology.
My feedbacks for the first napkin were all positive. I did not realize that the napkin assignments wanted us to type out the elements. I, instead, actually wrote and drew my ideas on a "napkin". In this second napkin, I provided more information about the uniqueness of my idea as well as how my story influenced this idea. This story ties into a teaching service to help those who desire certain knowledge.
Tommy,
ReplyDeleteGood work doing the assignment in a clear manner and laying out all the information needed effectively. I think that you did a good job answering each question, but I think it is also thinking about where you may be weak in your core competencies as well. THis helped me identify what I needed to grow or change in my idea. Overall good post and a good job on the assignment.
Hey Tommy, I really enjoyed reading about how your personal life ties in with your business idea. Hearing about how your parents want you to give back to Vietnam really gave me an insight into what is driving your idea and how you came up with it. I also really liked your last Idea Napkin, as it was laid out well and very organized. Great work!
ReplyDeleteDear tommy,
ReplyDeletegreat job at organizing your ideas, this is a great post and shows you have really seen some change in your idea. This isthe whole point and you did a great job at that and answering the new questions. Great post!
Dear Tommy, Right off the start, you present somethings about yourself that are really unique and make you stand out. The fact that you are the first in your family to grow up and study in the USA is something special that I am certain you are able to use to your advantage. This gives you an outlook that may help you see the world in a different way than many other people. You elaborate a little bit about this when you describe you experience as a translator. I think you did a great job improving upon your first napkin.
