March 5th is the day when I started internship at IHSL. From school at 12.00 pm all the way to 225 Adelphi Street where is the Urban Assembly Academy of Arts & Letters located. This is the place where I will intern 10 weeks. My supervisor’s name is Meghan Joseph. She works at middle school, Director of Development & Partnerships. I'm her assistant helping with affairs in school. My job is to help her with many different tasks. She has room 309 on third floor which is her office also where we are working together. She is very attention on work, well know what to do. She has patient, is open-minded, enthusiastic, respectful, integrity, compassion and flexible person. Beside that she is good in multitask. My environment is good enough. The room I have middle size. There are one shelf next to the door, two tables where my supervisor’s and her partner’s, bright colored room with one desk and big copy machine. I met a lot of people. They were parents, teachers and of course police officers for school safety. I have completed a lot tasks. Some of them were organizing, creating folder for advocating school work to other people. I work with kids, computers, basically office work with papers.
We made schedule that good for us. My schedule is Monday from 13:00 until 17:00, Tuesday and Friday from 13:00 until 15:30. I arrive at home in an hour and twenty minutes, sometimes it depends on the train schedule. Mostly I come to home on time. I want to stay on this schedule for rest of the internship. I quickly adapted to middle school life. I already spoke with students. They are smart kids. I would like to share some feedback about school. In general school is the same from outside but the inside they are different. People are very respectful. There are special rules I learnt about stair ways right side to go up, left to go down. Everyone follow it. I like to work with them and good not only in communication or language skills but also it is good to see the middle school life. The last thing I want to share about coming event and me with my supervisor working on it. I like to have internship here.
I really liked your blog and pictures Shahzod, well done also you are so descriptive.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're interning at this school. It has a very good reputation in Brooklyn and I hope you learn a lot about what makes this a strong school. From what you wrote, it sounds like your mentor is not a teacher. Is that right? Her job, judging by the title, sounds very important because creating partnerships with outside organizations benefits children a great deal. Think about your SAT classes, The Museum of the CIty of New York, and The Door. I hope you share these activities with Ms. Joseph. She will likely be impressed.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mr. Sean, I really wanted to choose internship in medicine field, such as it didn't happen. I pick that my teacher offered me. I built really good contact with supervisor and my schedule is very flexible, which I wanted to have. Yes she is building relationship with new investors and involving them to middle school life.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ali!
I'm really glad you are already enjoying your internship. You know by working with other kids it will help you improve your English so you can communicate well with people.
