Summary of Evaluations

When I met with my supervisor Lori about my evaluations she always had really positive
things to say. At the beginning of the internship there was somewhat of a confusion of
what my duties were. I am also a substitute teacher at the CDL, so I was confused about
some of the rules as an intern. I was allowed to do almost all of the responsibilities
besides diapers and to count in ratio. Since Lori was a new teacher we both were not sure
which duties the intern was allowed and which they werent. We figured these things out
together eventually. We were effectively able to communicate any problems. I had a
positive experience with Lori as a supervisor. I did not communicate much at all with Dr.
Kay. All of my time was spent in the older toddler classroom. During evaluations Lori
was able to discuss my strengths and weaknesses with me. She gave me a lot of
confidence that I will do well when I graduate and start working. Lori told me that I was
an excellent intern and that it would be hard to find someone to replace me. Although
there were some issues with communication I really loved working with this classroom. I
was able to learn a lot about crisis management, punctuality, and responsibility.
