Special Education Paraprofessional

June - August 2018 • Durango, CO

What I liked

I was able to broaden my education and experience through being a paraprofessional and I really enjoy hanging out and being with these kids so it did not seem like I was working all day, but rather just hanging out with friends.

What I wish was different

I wish it was longer than just a summer job, but I know that is where is my career is headed and I'm more than excited to be in the field.

Advice

One piece of advice I have is to be open minded and very patient. I had a lot of experiences that were very much new for me and sometimes emotional or frustrating but I always was reminded by my kids to let the little things go.
