MY FIRST MEETING AT THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB OF LASALLE ! (:

Hi everyone!
 As you can see, this entry will be the first one about my internship, which I will explain in detail.
 I am very happy to announce that everything went well for my first meeting; the woman was very understanding with me even if I had a few difficulties to talk in English because I was too stressed about the idea to meet her. The meeting lasted about 20 minutes, she explained to me what my tasks would be here with the 3 to 5 years old kids, she showed me in which room I would be working for the weeks to come, and we also fixed the day I would be there. The only day that was good for me and the group that I would be in was Wednesday; so I did not have choice to do my internship on this day, 10 o’clock to 3.
 When I left the place after the meeting, I was so happy because now the first big step was done, but, I was wondering how the first internship day would be. I started to stress again, I was afraid to have some misunderstandings, that the little children I would work with, wouldn’t like me and much more. I told myself that I was amplifying the situation so, I decided to stop thinking about this, and I started to think in a positive way; because it is the best attitude to take when we start something new.
 For this new experience, my goal is to improve my English and also to learn to communicate in an English environment which is not the environment I am used to. I think that during these few weeks, I will use body language when my language skills would not be effective enough and I will also analyze words to try to deduce their meaning by breaking them down into their components. Also, I will keep practising, because it is by practising something that we get better.
 This internship will not only give me the opportunity to improve my English but, It will also be a ‘’test’’ for me to see if being with young children is a thing that I would like to do in the future.
 I cannot wait to see my little new friends, and also to learn a lot through this new experience that is opening to me.
