1. If you wanted to follow in the career path of someone at your internship site, what would you need to do to make this happen?
To follow in the career path of my mentor, I would need to go into an early childhood education major in college. Taking this internship is a great step to prepare to be a teacher as well. I would need to also do internships in college and student-teach.
2.How does the organization distribute the level of work among the staff? How equitable do you believe the distribution is?
Teaching at an elementary school is very different from most other careers. While you do have teamwork among the teachers in preparing lessons for the standards needed to be taught, it's all very independent. It is very equitable, because you are doing the work that applies to you, while other teachers are doing their work that belongs to them.
3. What types of tasks are you discovering that you enjoy or excel at completing? Which ones are less attractive or fulfilling?
I enjoy working with students one-on-one, either in small groups or just helping in group activities. Some activities that are less attractive are speaking in front of the class as a whole, mainly because of my shy personality.
