I have volunteer experience in helping opening a martial arts academy in a poor area in another country, as well as teaching martial arts on occasion to other students and children. However, this is all 5+ years ago (with some sporadic teaching in the past few years, but not consistently- been moving around too much). I haven't done any other community service. Is it worth including this on the application/essays/resume? I'm hesitant to stretch the truth and say it was more recent, but wondering what others do in similar situations.

Thanks!

Hi bp2013,

Yes, you must definitely include this experience in your application. Please bring out the impact you had in the best possible way :-)

All the best!
