My Personal Approach to Learning Essay Evola Dawson Dr. Winchester, English Professor English 1013: Freshman English II Learning is imperative to life and in order for it to be effective, it must be affective.

K/601/7629 4 Understand the importance of supervision in counseling. 4.1 Explain why both casework and managerial supervision are important for a trainee and a qualified counselor Supervision is important for both trainee and fully qualified counselor for many reasons which can be covered broadly as educative and formative.This means learning and developing the skills required to become an effective counselor and being able to recognise and understand the capabilities of trainee or supervisor by exploration and reflection on work with clients.The supervisor can be effective when supporting and challenging the student in their work with clients,to look at the students awareness of themselves and of their own responses and reactions with clients as well as other variables such as power sharing which can all affect the process. Another important factor is the supportive or restorative purpose of supervision. One simple way to described this is how both student and qualified counselor react and work when issues come up by way of transference.For instance wanting to rescue a client who discuses hugely distressing emotional issues that may resonate due to shared experiences. A further element is the managerial or normative aspect of supervision and this could explained to some extent as maintaining standards.An awareness of the need to keep up with CPD, personal blind spots and prejudices that affect the the way how both trainee and counselor look at themselves which in turn influence how they see others and the way how they work, so the requirement to contiunaly learn about oneself increases knowledge and understanding which is vitaly important for personal development and growth that will enevitbly enhance thier work with clients.

1.1 Explain what is meant by reflective practice Reflection is a process that one replays an experience over in their mind and they actively and carefully evaluate it. It is suggested that reflection involves three aspects; returning to the experience in your mind, connecting to feelings (helpful ones to be used, unhelpful to be removed or contained) and evaluating and re-examining through the eyes of knowledge and desired goals. Edgar Schon who studied and wrote much on reflection described two main ways of reflecting, one whilst in action and one whilst after the event has occurred. Reflection in action allows the practitioner to evaluate and change what he/she is doing whilst they are doing it, highly effective but many do not possess the skill to do this. Reflection on action is as described above where one contemplates in retrospect.
In the primary schools I have mainly been interacting with the Key stage 1 pupils and studying how they act on a daily basis during my work experience I accompanied them on outings and listened to them read and helped with classroom activities. I worked for two weeks on a summer performing arts play scheme that took place in Plumstead for ages 10 to 18year old children. I was responsible for organising activities for them and assisted the team leader with escorting the children on outings. I babysit when needed three children who are 6, 7 and 11 years old.

Self Managers. I demonstrate the above skills when I complete training and/or distance learning courses. I like to further my learning, by taking part in as much training as possible to better my knowledge in my role as a carer. E.g.

Signature of candidate………………………………………………………Date………….............. Marker’s feedback: Continue overleaf if necessary Marker’s name Grade: Date: Resubmission date (if referred) Grade: Date: IV’s name (if sampled) Date: (a separate IV record must be completed for each assessment sampled) Explain the different methods of giving feedback and demonstrate good practice in giving feedback to your peers. Complete a self evaluation to reflect on and evaluate the effectiveness of your own teaching and feedback methods. According to McDermott and Jago (2002, p99) , feedback is the foundation of success. It also, as Minton (1997, p93) explains,enables learning to take place. During the micro teaching session as participants, we use feedback as a way of enabling our colleagues who deliver the session to get valuable input on ways of improving the session as well as identifying, more importantly, what went well that they should continue.
For the purpose of this assignment, I will reflect upon a direct observation which I planned, facilitated and actively undertook for a piece of group work. I performed this task within my placement. This piece of work gives me the opportunity to perform a reflective evaluation of the effectiveness of my practice with referring to relevant group work theory. DeRoos (1990 p 190.) defines reflection in practice, or reflecting in action, as ‘the conscious evaluation of action during the course of action.’ This means that one needs to pay attention to both one’s client and oneself.
Introduction In this assignment, I will be explaining in more detail; the person centred model of counselling, used primarily during this Level 3 course. The concepts and principles of the model and who was responsible for them. I will be seeking the value of the person-centred model and pitting it alongside its counterparts.
