Queens Library

Adult Basic Education Instructor

June - August 2018 • Rockaway Beach, NY

What I liked

I was able to teach a underserve population and help prepare them for their GED. This allowed me to apply the skills I gained at Binghamton University to give back to my community through education.

What I wish was different

To have more time. It was very difficult to plan a course with only 12 weeks to cram a lot of information.

Advice

Develop your adaptive skills because in a work environment, things are always changing and its your responsibility to adjust to those change to produce the best quality product. For me, because my class was so polarized--some students were at a high school level, while others were at a middle school level--I had to always tailor my course to fit both population.
