Be a real life hero




Being a firefighter is very rewarding and heroic job reach I want to do in my life. The maine goal of this profession is to help others people. My future plan is to have a job just like that. Back home, I had a chance to belong as a volunteer firefighter to my cities fire station #53. The pursuit of becoming a firefighter continues to trough today in my life. I look and gather information about how to become firefighter. First, you need to be a least 18 years old, with a high school diploma or (GED). Second, you heve to pass a rigorous test of physical straight and stamina, a medical exam and a drug screening. Next, is a find out what real firefighters do and to try to keep yourself in perfect physical condition. After, is to take a basic CPR and whatever other emergency medical procedure training is available to you. Then you must apply to take the fire-fighting exam and to complete your local fire department's training program and successfully complete your department's probationary period of employment, with can last from three to six months. Finally, besides all above additionally it will be a great benefit if you have: volunteer experience, ambulance driver's license, bilingual ability and clean driving record.
Now you see that it takes a lot time and you need to work really hard to reach hard to become a firefighter, but when you finally reach your goal- it's very rewarding and makes you feel yourself happy to helping others. A fire fighter's job is what I want to do in my life.

Hi Greg
That is a great job, to put your life in danger to save others.
If everybody will be like you we don't need Police officer. Yura need to look for another job.

"These steps you must take when to become one." something is missing

Eva, I disagree with you! In those two works when people still live in a society, they will need all the time! If everybody work like a firefighter, who will protect you from bad boys? Or whom will you ask for help when somebody robbed you? The firefighter? Of course not!

Good Title.

Interesting introduction, but it should only be 1-2 sentences.

I like your conclusion.

You should not use a list of steps with incomplete sentences. You need to write complete sentences using transitions to connect your ideas. Focus on the most important information because the limit for this assignment is 12 sentences.

Check your spelling:
cities
trough

You also need to review some tenses. As I look and gather information..(should be past)

make feel good helping others.
Who is the subject in this sentence?
