How has ISM benefitted Elyse Torres?

"ISM greatly benefitted me in the aspect of how to properly network with others (connections are truly important), how to be prepared when it comes to interviews and work, and gave me more confidence in myself."

What was a challenge they faced and overcame?

"One of the challenges I faced in ISM was the lack of self-confidence in my speeches. Before being in ISM, I would always get very nervous when giving speeches and deliver the speech way too fast. Through the practice of the various speeches in ISM, I am now able to deliver speeches with much more confidence."

Advice

"Fill your dash, as Mr.Pirtle always says. If I will remember anything from high school, it will always be the ISM program, Mr.Pirtle's great speeches, the connections I made, and the things that I was able to do that I would have never thought I would have done. ISM is an amazing way to be able to see if you truly want to take on the career path in which you want, if you are ready for all that it requires, and to be prepared for what is to come. Remember to not think of this as just a class, take this opportunity to learn more about what you are passionate about and the career path that you want to take. You will make many great memories in this program and achieve things you couldn't/didn't think you could."
