Pathways to Success

Garden Spot High School

Mason Casey – Secondary Education Internship

Over the past two months, I have had the opportunity to be Mr. Epler’s intern at Garden Spot high school. Mr. Epler is a Social Studies Teacher and teaches AP world history and general world history. The courses start at the beginning of time and go all the way up to the present.

My main job duty is to just observe Mr. Epler teach. In class, I need to remember that I’m observing him teach and not being taught. So, I have to focus on the way he presents the content, no the content itself. This can prove difficult sometimes because I am passionate about the content. Mr. Epler uses many different tactics in his teaching process which is very impressive.

My other main duty is to question Mr. Epler and try to learn everything I can from him. This is very helpful because it is preparing me for when I have to teach my own classroom someday. I ask him questions regarding grading and the process he takes, as well as how he handles the classroom in certain situations. Mr. Epler always gives awesome insight and great answers.

I am so thankful for this internship because of how much I have been able to learn.
