This summer, I was a counselor at Variety Camp. How it works is that you get matched with a camper. It’s a one on one experience. I helped the mentee with the three different types of therapy’s which are speech, occupational, and physical.
In the speech therapy, I helped him write. I did physical activities. I also helped with the math and speech skills. From this experience I learned how to meet the child’s needs. This will help how to supports my students in the future. Even tough I do think it did give me good experience, this might be something that I don’t do again.
