My work as an intern at the South Bay YMCA (Teen Center)
Internship has taught me a lot. I would measure the success of the work I have done while at my internship is being very busy. I have worked on many different projects while entering at the YMCA. I have worked a lot on Academy to prepping for Camp. What I learned from my internship is that you are never going to be working on one thing. I was given lots of different task which was nice but, I never had a due date for my task which was nice. In my mind if I did not have dead line I would be procrastinate so I would only give myself 3-4 days to work on a task and turn it in. I would have 1 day to research, 2 days to get the doc done and the last day to make edit and clean it up before turning it in. Doing this made me turn in efficient work that not only I was proud of but, my mentors we proud of as well. I believe that I made a very meaningful contribution to the workplace by alway staying busy. I always tried to find a task to or help where every it was need. If I finished on talk then I would ask for another one and if I had a down time I would ask if there is anything that need to get done. I knew that staying busy would show that care about my work and about what kind of experience I wanted to take away from the YMCA. I wanted to be able to produce good work and I wanted to be that intern that everyone remember. When going to my internship I went it into trying to bet the intern everyone remembered as the very had working one. I think that my work as an intern very has been meaningful to my education because it has helped me with my time management skills and always staying on top of my work. I did not want to have to uses the bad excuse of I forgot when it came to working at my internship. I think that all of the work I did was very meaningful for my education because, it just tough me that most of the stuff we learn in school apply to the real world. being able to present and speak in front of people has become a secret power of mine and when I need to explain something and or present it has been really helpful to have all of these skills. My project went from all of the work that I have been getting and make it simple and easier to understand I turned all of there task in to clean cut docs that if you were to look at you would be able to understand them. I believe that I took all of the information that I learned form working at my internship and will becoming up with a binder that can bee used for many different types of people that work at the YMCA.
