Pre-Internship Reflection
Directions: You are about to embark upon your internship journey! Isnt this
exciting? Using your best grammar, punctuation, spelling, and
capitalization skills, reflect upon the following questions before
you start this wonderful project. Happy Reflection!

VTfT Interns Name: Keyonia S. Driver

My Cooperating Teachers Name: Ellen Shackley
My Internship School: Newtown Elementary School
The most important thing I learned during this VTfT class
is that you have to have patience for children and that you have
to have a passion to make a difference in someone elses life.
How I feel right now about beginning my internship I am
excited and nervous but more nervous because I want the
students to like me and I have to teach two lesson plans.
How I hope I will feel in May when my internship is over I
hope I feel the same about teaching. I hope I will figure out if
teaching is what I want to do.
What I hope to learn from my cooperating teacher I hope
to learn the ins and outs of being a teacher. I want to know the
real deal. I want to know about all the tedious paperwork and all
the stress administration puts on teachers.
