Hopefully a licensed teacher in two years' time
February 18, 2021by: Daniella Camua - United Arab EmiratesProgram: Teaching Assistant (Education/Social Services) InternshipsBeing a teaching assistant in the Netherlands is a dream come true for me. In my work, I was assigned to gather and distribute school supplies, helping students with their lessons, and keeping the classroom organized. Having a practical experience inside the classroom - seeing how children behave, knowing what motivates kids - is good exposure for me, as I wanted to be a licensed teacher in two years' time. :)
Internship despite COVID
February 18, 2021by: Rabiya W - IndiaProgram: Teaching Assistant (Education/Social Services) InternshipsThere are dozens of different occupations that involve dealing with kids, but teaching them in an educational setting is my favorite. I'm happy that my mom suggested me this internship and messaged Dr. Adams about the possibility of taking an internship despite COVID. Luckily, they are still open for internships. Everything is wonderful. And IGS never failed to remind us of safety precautions. Thanks, IGS!
Got a letter of recommendation
February 18, 2021by: Kristna L - United StatesProgram: Teaching Assistant (Education/Social Services) InternshipsIn my internship, we are deployed in a small community school in Thailand. The kids are really adorable and the teaching staff are so kind! Aa a teaching assistant, I help the classroom teacher in preparing her materials, and having one-on-one sessions with kids that are having troubles with lessons. Dr. Rahim, the school principal, even gave me a letter of recommendation, that I can present to my future employers.
