Working at Clear lake is unlike any job I have had before. From high ropes to the amazing staff and students, I have found it to be a lot of fun and a great learning experience. I enjoyed May the most and became very interested in the lesson that I was teaching, aquatic ecology.
As I worked more with students, I became more confident and leaving this job I know I will have more experience and be more comfortable working with and teaching students in the future.
Although working here in June would get a bit lonely, the camp itself is beautiful and is full of wildlife that keeps me company, I also enjoy when Pam and Mimi stop in, there is never a dull moment with them around. They are fun but know how and when to get work done and are very good at what they do.
Everything was very easy to understand when learning my lessons and getting ready for high ropes. I felt like I was very in the know with everything that was going on in camp and what would be expected from me.
I also enjoy the Great Start programs, and helping to create ideas and projects for the programs gave me an understanding to how much work goes into creating these programs. It will help me create lesson plans for teaching in the future.
I look forward to whatever is in store for me during the rest of my internship!
