Reflect on your internship experience
Question:
- Reflect on your internship experience this week. What has gone well? What areas have been challenging for you and why? In addition, if you are facilitating groups, what has been your experience? What has gone well and what areas have been challenging for you and why in relation to facilitation of group counseling? Provide a short answer of 250 words.
From the internship this week, so many things have gone well. I have learned so many things, like introducing myself to large gatherings; I have gained a lot of skills and knowledge from the leaders and counselors within the organization. I have also learned how to ask questions appropriately to gain knowledge and understanding within the business and not only within the co-working space but also within the counseling market. Some of the challenges I have encountered include too much work, which I am not used to and getting afraid when asking questions (Sabina, 2018). As the day goes by, I have been overcoming the challenges one by one and learning how to do things, especially for group counseling. This internship experience has helped me put education into practice and develop the leadership skill that is in me to pursue a permanent work position in the future.
