From the first time we visited the YWCA, I knew it was a good
place that served the community. The organization’s purpose was one thing that
I really liked. They strive to empower women and eliminate racism. This is a
good place for parents and single parents to take their children during the
times they work or are not able to be with them.
Working with
the pre-school kids reminded me a lot of when I was in pre-school. This was
especially important, because they are not just running a daycare; they are helping
in educating the children. The staff worked really well with the kids and I
think the kids enjoy being there. Although they seemed to get out of hand
sometimes, the kids showed respect to the teacher when addressed.
I really
enjoyed working with the school-aged children as well. I have many nieces and
nephews, so I know how to interact with them. One thing that I noticed is that
they crave attention. They all want to be heard and seen, which is not always
good. The kids were comfortable talking to me and sharing their stories.
Sometimes they shared stuff without me asking them anything. This showed that
they liked having someone to talk to and were comfortable doing it. I saw that
these kids really deserve an adult’s attention. They are brilliant children. I
noticed that they need help with reading and like when people read with them.
This experience showed me that is important to have English teachers to work
with kids and help them become better readers and better people.
