My Year as an Intern

This year as an intern has been the utter most best experience in my life. I have had the chance to experience what it's like to be a teacher and help teach the students. Some of the ups in being an intern is having that feeling after you just helped a student understand how to do a problem and them getting it and learning. Some of the downs in being an intern personally is very hard to come up with because there really isn't anything bad about being an intern but coming up with lesson plans can be tricky at times but being an intern is amazing.

The author of the poem Roller Coaster refers to nausea, personally I would refer to it as adrenaline. Just because I am pumped every day that I know I'm going to my field site and I get to teach the kids something new and they are expanding their brains every day its amazing! My elation this year is meeting my mentor Crys Aigner she has to be one of the most incredible teachers ever, she has so much energy to her and is ready to start the day, she's just very energetic and it gets all her students pumped for the day and ready to go.

I am forever committed in becoming a teacher because it is just such a great job and being able to motivate children and make them strive for the best that they can be is beyond this world. I have learned many things from my mentor such as being positive, having energy, motivating the students, keeping the kids interactive she literally does it all and I am very honored that I get to call her my mentor. I believe her being my mentor has been a great advantage to me because I took all those characteristics that she has and have tried to do the same thing. 

Personally there isn't anything that I would have changed about this year everything just fell into place like it was destine. It's been a great year and I don't regret anything at all, I can't wait for next year when I get to do it all again.
