    This semester has really showed me that being a global citizen doesn’t mean you have to do something global. In fact, you do something small in your community, this something small is what has the capabilities of going global. My “something small” is working with my kids as a peer tutor for English 9 and Biomed instead of having the privilege of going home early. I proceed to give students the opportunities I have always had, a tutor invested in helping my students succeed.

One of these technological advancements is the internet and the ability it provides people to share ideas all around the world, particularly through social media.

    409 Words  | 2 Pages

Therefore, centering his audience at those individuals who remain outside the lines of being a global citizen. The main idea that Hugh draws up throughout his speech is the impact that the actions of a single individual; no matter how small, can have when one acts with the purpose of combating “extreme poverty, climate change, and inequality” on a global scale rather than a local one. In order to do so, Hugh introduces the stories of a few individuals who have been able to impact people that are “not [themselves], not in [their] neighborhood, [their] state, or even in [their] country” and along the way reveals his own journey to becoming a global citizen.
