My internship has been amazing. I worked with children in a daycare. We teach and care for them. I never knew that I would enjoy working with children so much. I never imagined I had the patience and the ability to work with many children at once and be able to teach them. It made me realize how much passion I had towards this population and how much I believe in them.
