(Holly Friedman is a FLOC intern and attends The George Washington University.\u00a0 She would like to start a blog thread for GW tutors this year.)<\/em><\/p>\n

Fifteen-credit course loads, never-ending research projects and community service hours\u2026 all while attempting to maintain a social life. It\u2019s not always easy for a full-time college student to also have a challenging internship.<\/p>\n

My name is Holly Friedman and I am a junior at The George Washington University where I am majoring in Human Services and minoring in Speech & Hearing Sciences.<\/p>\n

While it\u2019s not always easy, my experience as an intern at FLOC has made all the late nights studying and time management challenges well worth the extra effort.\u00a0 I have always loved working with children, but my experience so far at FLOC has been truly unique.<\/p>\n

Although I love my coursework in human services classes, my hands-on experience at FLOC has been the highlight of my junior year, and perhaps my college career thus far.\u00a0 As an intern, I am a site coordinator for both the Thursday night math tutoring program and the Saturday afternoon reading tutoring program, where I work directly with students and tutors.<\/p>\n

My weekly tasks consist of editing lesson plans, working on long-term and short-term projects and lending a hand to staff members in any way I can.<\/p>\n

Over the past few years I have toyed with the ideas of being a teacher or a speech-language pathologist, and I currently want to be a social worker.\u00a0 Until this year, though, I never thought about working at a nonprofit organization, and I didn\u2019t even realize that community-based organizations like FLOC actually existed.<\/p>\n

Through my internship experience, I realize that I now see myself potentially working in the nonprofit sector as my career.<\/p>\n

FLOC is a combination of all of my professional interests, giving me the opportunity to work with children, teach and help others all at once.\u00a0 Although it sounds clich\u00e9, I encourage all college students to explore, because you may find something that suits all of your interests \u2014 just like FLOC suits mine!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
