VIPKid is an online education program that teaches English to children in China ages four to twelve. The program pairs each child with their own teacher. Additionally, VIPKid is ranked first according to Forbes Top 100 Remote Work Companies.

The only requirement to be apart of the VIPKid team is that you must have a Bachelor's degree. Some people choose to make working for VIPKid full-time and others choose to be a part-time worker.

VIPKid's mission is "to inspire and empower every child for the future. In order to do this, we have embarked on a better way to teach foreign languages. We encourage curiosity, critical thinking and creativity from our teachers and students." The curriculum uses a flipped-classroom teaching method and is based on the U.S. Common Core system.

There are over 500,000 students and 60,000 teachers as of right now working for this awesome company. Right now on campus at NC State, I have the privilege of being one of the four brand ambassadors for my school. I will be campaigning for the next three months. I work to promote the company on social media through various Instagram posts. Also, I hand out flyers and put up posters around campus.

This is a great company to work for and I highly recommend any soon-to-be-graduates to apply for the job! Getting to make a difference and change lives while making money is a once in a lifetime chance.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
