As a school counselor, I play an imperative role in leadership in ensuring that I provide viable assistance to students, and also provide paramount support to student’s teachers and also their parents during the counseling process. I ensure that I liaise with both teachers and parents while developing diverse strategies that are of benefit to students, such as overcoming difficulties in learning. As such, I believe that I have to work well with students and establish a robust relationship with students to have a swift process during counseling.
I have always been fascinated in seeing students prosper and have a person they can tell their problems or challenges. I wanted to provide students with the crucial moment where they can share their ideas and also challenges without the fear of being judged or mistreated. I aspired to help students become confident by giving them advice that would help them both in the current state and also in the future by giving them hope in any challenge they are facing.
My three most significant strengths are acceptance, empathy, and also effective communication skills. I am naturally good at listening and also giving out articulated thoughts and ideas. Some of the weaknesses I have as a counselor include stress, emotional strains, and even physical demands. The strengths and weaknesses will improve my connection with the course and also with my clients at the moment and also in the future. The strengths, in particular, has helped me understand and appreciate my clients as well as ensure that I prepare myself well for the future. The weaknesses have enabled me to understand the areas that I need to improve to perfect my career in the future.
