Internships useful?

Post by wangyingying »

Are internships of great help to we college students?
Now I have to make a choice between the two : stay with my
family, or get an internship during the summer holiday.
Someone says it's a precious opportunity for us so I'd better
not give up it easily. what do you think?

I experienced internship last spring vacation, I mean, from the end of January to the middle of February.

In my case, I went to Los Angeles, in the United States, and joiend an elementary school to help teacher, so called "assistant teacher".

What is the good point of internship is that you can make really good experience through work. You can work that you want in school days. That's amazing thing, isn't it?

Well, I have to mention about weak point. You cannot enjoy your vacation. If you think that you would like to work, it means that you will have no time to play, especially weekdays.

Anyway, I strongly recommend internship. Of course, it will be shorten your vacation that I mentioned before, but the experience through work will be your best memory in your school days, definetely.

Maybe you are right! Yes, from your very experience I think now I have got it:we should learn how to balance between two or even more hard things. If one means more for our future, we shall do it.
