Charlie Arnold

Meet Charlie Arnold, a 2020 Alumnus from Corpus Christi, Tx. Charlie currently lives in Wakefield, Mi and is a Professional ASVAB tutor. 

I take pride in my work as an online Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) tutor, primarily because I want to help people enlist who would be otherwise disqualified due to testing scores. Me myself, I have been medically disqualified due to hearing loss. I lost my chance to go to Germany as an Intelligence Analyst.

The thing that helped me the most at NMU was being supported by the instructors, faculty and other staff. They were the same type of mentor to me that I am to my students now. I want the absolute best for everyone I tutor, and I will never give them less than 100%.

The biggest piece of advice that I would give to current students to take your education seriously, but avoid neglecting the excellent extracurricular programs that NMU offers. I was blessed to be a part of so many different groups (Eco Reps, Criminal Justice Association, Fisheries and Wildlife Association, Quiz Bowl, etc...). Join the Superior Edge and volunteer as much as you can. The experiences you have and people you meet will stay with you for a lifetime.

I love to travel the world and leave everything behind to embrace a new culture. So far in my life, I've visited Albania, Greece and Mexico. I'm going to continue fighting for my opportunity to continue traveling the world. There are so many places, so many things and so many people I have not encountered yet.
