How to Be More—Advice from Claes Nobel, NSHSS Co-Founder

Take comfort in some advice from Claes Nobel, grand nephew of Alfred Nobel who established the Nobel Prizes, which are recognized worldwide as the most prestigious awards available in the fields of literature, medicine, physics, chemistry, economics, and activism for peace. Claes Nobel emphasized the importance of setting goals and working diligently to achieve them.

"In life, where there can be so much uncertainty, having a teacher can make all the difference. A teacher's ability to be compassionate, flexible, supportive, and continuously go beyond expectations is truly admirable. Providing leadership, courage, and guidance to students, families, and the overall community is truly a calling. NSHSS is more than just a resource, it is a worldwide network of high achieving scholars and educators, that share the same missions and vision to create lifelong learners and independent, authentic, citizens of society. I would like to encourage you to explore the many ways that they help students and us educators reach our goals and allow us to access our dreams. The NSHSS platform is extremely user-friendly, guiding both students and educators, step by step, on how to complete scholarship and grant applications. What is also nice is that customer service is always available when you call or email, and they are willing to guide you every step of the way."

NSHSS is a phenomenal resource for students and teachers alike! Although just a recent member to this community, I'm already happily overwhelmed with the opportunities and resources at my disposal. Not only are there opportunities for continued advancement in my field, but it also allows me the opportunity to recognize and support my students.

There are so many benefits of an NSHSS membership. Being an ambassador, I have had the opportunity to help other members with any questions or concerns. I've also been able to make a lot of friends through the society, and the chance to attend recognition ceremonies, college tours, and the chance to tour places abroad, which are really special opportunities that are hard to come by. I've applied to certain scholarships that I couldn't apply to without this membership, and being part of the society helps with any application.
