As a counselor, I would create relationships while at camp and continue talking to the freshman by reaching out to them. I know that one of my favorite things about camp was continuity because I also made new friendships later on in the semester that I am forever grateful for. My favorite event during

When we got into the classroom, we introduced ourselves to the kids, there were eight boys and one girl. The same was true in our future
A lot of these kids have been through trauma, issues; and coping skills is something that no one really teaches you. We have little roundtable discussions, just talking
I would also bring an outgoing personality and high energy attitude to camp to make it as fun and enjoyable as possible. Another important quality I feel is important as a counselor is the necessary time and dedication I would be able to put in. I am willing and able to provide what is needed to be a counselor, just like my DG parents did for me. Being apart of a freshman leadership
I’ve been going to a summer camp called Camp Silver Beach every summer science I was 9. This is about the time I went when I was 12. My camp is on the Eastern Shore, so we get to do all types of activites! One of the first things you do when you get to camp is meet your cabin members. I always get nervous for this because you are stuck with them for a week; so if you don’t get along that could be a problem.

From the time I was a small boy, I always wanted to be on Summer Camp staff. My dad had been on staff and to me it seemed like a fun way to spend my summer. Once I was accepted to staff, I learned it was a lot more than just having a fun summer. I realized I was making an impact on Cub Scout and Boy Scout lives.
Life is full of many experiences. These moments in life are shared with so many people, including, friends, family, and sometimes even a mentor. By definition, a mentor is “an experienced and trusted advisor”, but a mentor is much more than that. To me, a mentor is a person that you can look up too. It is not necessarily someone you want to be exactly like, but they inspire you to do great things.
Some children may have communication barriers such as sensory impairments, speech impairments, speak a different language and may have different cognitive abilities. All these barriers need approaching in different ways for example, a child with a stammer may need more patience as they may get upset if they feel that they are being rushed and someone with sensory impairments like being deaf may need everything writing down for them or sign to them if you know how, they will also want to be involved in things and not excluded just because they canâ€TMt
peer mentor is the perfect platform which has broadened my skills and experience in terms of education and community. It has broadened my networking skills here at BMCC and it has given me enormous resources which made fulfill my potential.

You grow up wanting to be an adult, just to become an adult wishing to be a child again. I have gone through my entire life planning my future in my head. I envisioned all these dreams as a child, as a teenager, and as a young adult. Not once have I taken control of my destiny until now. For the first time in my life, I know what I want and exactly how to achieve my goals.
Fist of all, I am the oldest of eight children. This has given me plenty of experience working with kids and helping them learn. It also has helped me to learn patience in many areas. These include times when kids are not listening to what I’m telling them to do, times when kids are crying and they really have no need to, and even those times when you are trying to get them to understand something and they just aren’t. All of these are definitely prevalent in the world of elementary school children.
When I first started babysitting it was for a family with two children that were under the age of four, a little boy named Bentley and a newborn girl named Charlotte . The little boy has low functioning autism, which mean he was unable to speak and did things differently than other children. It was difficult to watch them at times, charlotte would be crying and fussy. Bentley would be crying for all my attention directed towards him, but he also had days where he did not want my attention and wanted me to leave him alone. Dinner time was always one of the hardest times of the night.
