Being given the opportunity to stand in front of the class and teach in Spanish for an hour or so was a great way for me to improve my Spanish level and increase my confidence when talking in front of many people, which was a main goal of mine. I also gained more clarity on the roles and responsibilities a teacher has, and how there will always be good days and bad days in the classroom. To see more details of a teacher’s duties and experience more dynamics of a classroom was another goal that I was able to achieve through this internship.
