Week of 4/5

An important collaboration I belong to right now would be working at the YMCA. The program I work for called DASH has many different employees and we all work together as a group to help each other prosper. At my site I have two other coworkers and it is always a blast going to work with them and learning from each other. We help each other when we have a problem and feed off support in order to have a better day week after week. Working at the YMCA has truly been an amazing experience where I have met lots of different people and we are all united under the Southbay family. Working in a team teaches a person how to be responsible and how to support other people around you. We are all looking to succeed but sometimes we need the help of others to do so. I think working in teams helps you become more open minded to the way others think and may see something differently than you. In the classroom students can help each other understand different social situations. I think sometimes the best teachers for students are each other, they can motivate each other and learn new things by talking about citizenship and coming up with ways that it is important.
