1. It is important to consistently work on your senior project, whether it is break or we are in school. What did you do over break with your senior project?
I continued to volunteer. Unfortunately I only had classes twice over the break, so my volunteering was minimal.
2. What is the most important thing you learned from what you did and why? What was the source of what you learned?
I learned my expectations for the kids are too high. This was because when I was given the opportunity to teach, I added new content when I thought the kids understood the previous part. My partner Anthony later told me I gave them too much, and should have stayed on one part.
3. If you were going to do a 10 question interview on questions related to your EQ, who would you talk to and why?
I would talk to my mentor a second time. As he has been a teacher for 43 years, he has lots of experience of instructing and teaching. He does things for the kids I look at as an (almost)adult and see how ridiculous it is, but it keeps the kids engaged. He has a greater understanding of the art and how to teach it than I may ever have.
