Field Placement Expectations:

Over the past four months I have been able to adapt to different groups of students
varying from age to disability. The diversity of mental impairments has given the
opportunity to learn about how to work with these different types of students. I
have been able to work with staff efficiently and build my own goals and
expectations of what I would like to accomplish with these students. I hope to
continue to gain knowledge and ideas by working one on one and hands on with
these students.
