My First Impressions

Before I never been in Stillwell avenue p and never heard the name The Talented Academy Scholars I was little sacred but now I know that I have to take b4 to go to my internship its was really different from school there are too much kids which are really cute and u need specially more patients. Because they are really made noise and loud if teacher saying them some thing they not going to listen but they are really intelligent if teacher ask them they give answer very clearly even they didn’t listen to the teacher. Every one is busy over there. The school decoration is really cool with cartoons and other stuff to.
The culture of my internship work place is some thing like IHSL because they are kids and they have partner to hold hands make sure they are with there partners and not talking. The office is really calm and peaceful and in class even kids are doing there work they are not going to quiet. The school where it’s located it’s really good and peaceful from out side like our school. My internship is really interesting because every day I have some thing new topic with different kids.
My mentor name is Ellen Lotz. She works on office. She works together and communicates with people. But her spot is different with her own desk chair and computer. My mentor is professional, wonderful, nice, kind friendly hard work and a good advisor. When I saw her first time I was scared I don’t know is she and sacred to talk with her after talk with her she is really nice and have good personality. She is work for kids study and trying to improve and make sure every thing going well in school. The environment in school is really cool pink, blue cartoon carpets are really look beautiful they organized school really good. The office is really big there 5 or 6 women’s work over there. The environment was really busy. There are some of teenagers from my school and some are in my class. My job is different activities every day not like other students because student has their own class room with the teacher but I have different some time I have to go different clusters some time office work, some time science lab and some time go to the different classes. I have to leave school at 12:00 o clock in afternoon and leave at 3:00 o clock and I have to finish 2 and half hour a day. I have some thing to share with you is learn patients when you work with kids.
