For my internship project I conducted a action research, my essential question was what do the main components that lead to English Learner (EL) success look like in classrooms? This project was important because it was information that could potentially be useful to the office that I was working for. Before I actually went into the classrooms to do research I had to do research in the office about these students. Then I went out into different classrooms, in some I got to interact with the students and I learned a lot form my visits to these ESL/ALD classrooms.

I think that internship has had a big impact on the direction that I will go in my life. Although this direction is still loading and will be rerouted multiple times until I really know what path is the right one for me, I have a clearer picture of what I'm looking for in a job. Whatever I do when I'm older I want to be able to help people and affect their lives in a positive way, just like they do here at the Office of Language Acquisition. I want to have the same type of work environment that they have here as well, always willing to help each other, and ultimately just wanting the best for these students, they are always the main priority. I think that my view on life after high school hasn't changed, but what I am doing right now that will prepare me for after high school has changed. I want to pursue more opportunities that will help me have a clearer picture of my future. I also want to learn more, and by taking on different opportunities it will give me a chance to do this.
Curiosity is a main skill I had before entering this internship that has helped me throughout it. I believe that curiosity is what led me to this internship and the thing that has pushed me throughout it. When someone is curious about something they go out and find out more about it, and that's what I've had to do. Yes my mentors have given me many tools and opportunities to learn more about this field, but without my curiosity I wouldn't have learned as much as I did. Curiosity is something that drives people and is how people find their passions. With the right amount of curiosity and ambition, you will go far beyond just being an intern.
