This is a 5 paragraph essay assignment from my office aid class. What i’ve learned is good communication skills. cleaning, and being at my supervisors/teachers beck and call. Maybe talk about the greatest inovators of the world, to make it longer. You can say anything really but honestly i don’t do much in this class so this essay is pretty challenging to me because i really sit and do nothing. I did take office aid last year as well and helped with the front desk, i also assisted a veternary science teacher who had me help her out with the dogs in the class room. I answer phones and have learned good phone edicacy
