Blog 2 - Summer Mentorship


1.List the contact name, phone number, and organization of the person with whom you volunteered.

  • Kassandra Diaz
    • Phone Number kept private for personal reasons, however her email is marchmommy2012@gmail.com

2. What qualified this person as an expert in your topic choice?     

  • Her being a single mother, she has the qualifications to show me the ways on how to care for a child. 

3. List three questions for further exploration now that you've completed your summer hours.

  • What is the proper way to discipline a child?
  •  How can someone treat a child with the respect that an adult gives to one another?
  • What is the way to get a child to respect the authority of another adult who isn't from their family? 
    
4. What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?

  • The most important thing that I gained from this experience is patience when it comes to taking care of a child. When taking care of a child it is important to maintain a calm and caring attitude, that way the child/children don't feel scared or develop anger towards the care taker.

5. What is your senior project topic going to be?  How did mentorship help you make your decision?  Please explain.

  • My senior project may be on how to be a daycare worker. This mentorship helped me get used to working with a child, however in the daycare situation there are multiple children that need to be taken care of. I still need work when it comes to handling multiple children at one time.
