Expectations
Before the experience, what did you think would happen?
Before my experience at the ILC I thought that this was going to be an average class where you get homework and tests, daily.
What did you expect to gain from an educational stand-point?
I felt that I would gain a better understanding of what I will be doing on a day to-day basis once I become a teacher.
What new knowledge did you hope to gain from this experience?
I really wanted to learn about different teaching certificates and teaching opportunities. I also wanted to learn about myself and what subject and grade I enjoyed working with the most.
What new relationships did you gain from this experience?
I was able to meet and work with a lot of different people during this program. I worked with students that excelled at school but also helped students that struggled in class. I also met a lot of different people who work in the the Hilliard education field. I had the chance to see each role starting with central office, all the way to SACC workers.
How did you think you would benefit from your involvement?
I thought that I would benefit from this class in many ways. Not only did I get hands on experience, but now I also have a guaranteed interview at Hilliard city schools.
