An Evaluation Of A Interview

Mock interview provided with an opportunity to practice my interviewing skills in an environment similar to an actual interview. It was a great opportunity to become familiar with interview questions and interview etiquette. It was time to realize that I need to practice more for the actual

Anger Management Education, founded in 1994, provided education and psychotherapy to individuals to help make sense of and manage anger in their everyday lives (Anger Management 1). Anger remains a healthy emotion when expressed appropriately, although devastating effects may still exist. Anger lies at the root of many personal and social problems, such as child abuse, domestic and community violence, physical and verbal abuse. Anger also affects our physical health, by contributing to headaches, migraines, severe gastrointestinal symptoms, hypertension, and coronary artery disease. Many of us do not have the knowledge or abilities required to express our anger as a healthy emotion. As a result, some of us store and

I found the Anger Management and Emotion Regulation Skills intervention from a book Helping At-Risk Students: A Group Counseling Approach for Grade 6-9 (Waterman & Walker, 2009).

On May 16, 2017 I interviewed Jaimie Resendiz about what it means to be American to her. Jaimie is 29 years old, shes been living most of her life here in Orange County. She recently moved to a different county, which is, Riverside County. She has her own house with three children, and two small dogs. Although, Jaimie has kids she isn’t so sure if she wants to get married.

In order to meet the study objectives, in addition to the case study, a semi-structured interview was conducted using non-random sampling. As respondents of the interview had to have particular characteristics such as ability to value property and knowledge about the property market, estate agents were contacted. A total of 7 interviews were conducted with estate agents in the West Hampstead/Kilburn area. The interviews lasted approximately 10 minutes. The participants were as follows:

Mrs. Griffins made several comments during her interview that relates to our readings and class discussions. Her statement about respecting students’ culture and protecting their national identities immediately reminded me of Cary’s question—“How do I find useful information on a student’s cultural background?” According to Cary’s text, a teacher can pursue a child’s outside story for three reasons: respect, curiosity, and instruction. Mrs. Griffins models all three reasons.

For many years I struggled with managing my anger and have taken anger management counselling four times as a result. I have never demonstrated an explosive anger but rather and passive aggressive one, which according to my old anger management counselor is one of the worst types of anger. People that have passive aggressive anger issues are as he stated, “ticking time bombs.” This revelation scared me and I have actively worked on expressing my anger better since. I know what makes me angry, and if possible how and when I should avoid those situations. I know when to walk away and when to voice my feelings, but learning these skills has not been easy. I am not good at expressing emotions, and anger is no different. However, I know that unexpressed anger is unhealthy and if gone unchecked can become dangerous. Everyone one has a breaking point no matter how long their fuse is. I never wanted to reach that point, so I have worked on my anger management skills. I am pleased to say that I have a good handle on this now, and I think that the result of the assessment reflect that achievement. It takes a lot to make me angry but when I do get angry I know how to deal with it. I believe that these skills are imperative to good management. Managers cannot afford to allow anger to get in the way of managing their team or business. There are many

According to standard four of the Professional Standards for Educational Leaders (2015), an administrator is supposed to develop, support, and uphold rigorous curriculum and instructional practices for all students. This entails selecting and providing the curriculum for teachers to use as a supplement to provide rigorous instruction. It also includes school leaders ensuring that the curriculum is being utilized to achieve the greatest success for all students and supporting all teachers in their deficit areas.

For the interview section of the group project, I decided to interview a twenty-five year old woman who resides in the San Francisco bay area in California. Choosing to have her personal identity remain anonymous, the interviewee has granted us permission to refer to her as the alias Mary. Mary is currently married to a thirty year old man and has one nine year old son. Surprisingly, Mary did not contract the disease by having heterosexual intercourse with her partner like so many other women have gotten HIV. She had obtained the disease through intravenous means. Mary’s husband and son are not HIV positive. Mary has been

Geoff is a little bit different than the other two that I interviewed. While both of the previous people worked for international corporations that had executives and a board of directors, Geoff works for a pizza franchise. While it does have half a dozen stores throughout South Florida, it is simply not at the same scale as these previous companies. However, it is interesting to note that he complains of similar issues as the other two. Namely – lack of planning.

Anger management therapy may be delivered in individual or group settings. Classes are designed to address specific types of anger issues, including relationship, parenting, adolescent, and work-related anger or rage. Individuals may be court-ordered to attend an anger management class as a result of a domestic or legal issue. Therapy is offered on a continuing basis, but people interested in anger management may also enroll in a retreat or online session, where offered. Most anger management therapies include homework assignments and exercises that strengthen the techniques learned and allow the person in therapy to practice them in real-life situations. (Awalt, 1997)

During my second interview, I believe I was able to get the client to talk when she was so uncomfortable and nervous that she kept her answers short, my questions seemed to get her to open up fairly quickly. She seemed to like the advice she was given and hopefully it made a positive impact on her, or at least gave her the comfort of searching further in her options educationally. Overall I felt like the interview went pretty smoothly and I was happy with the feedback I received and with watching my interview afterwards replay and I was far less nervous this interview than the last. I believe that my first experience was a good way to test the waters and navigate my own expectations.

The responses given in the interview summaries, colored individuals who are male, have their eyes set on marriage. Judging from the samples, the respondent’s responses and other sources related to women’s equality, these male students believe in equality in genders. These students, set a goal to get married at some point of their lives. Most of the student’s expectations are to get married in their late twenties or early thirties. Based on the summaries, students career comes before marriage. It’s preferred to be financially stable before entering a marriage. Having children is a necessity to my peers and this only comes after marriage. Men always dominated women inside and outside of households, but now women have a choice on what she wants

Today, I co-facilitated a group at the alternative school. I began the group with a recap of what was discussed last week, and I asked the members to name one thing they took from the group on last week. One member stated she learned how to demonstrate self-control when she is angry. Another member stated he also learned how to demonstrate self-control. He gave an example that occurred this weekend. He stated he got into trouble at home, and his mother made him angry. He stated instead of “going off”, he took a deep breath and walked away. He stated he went in his room to calm down. I felt successful in being able to assist the members with identify coping skills they can utilize when they are angry. It was very rewarding to hear the members disclose what they learned in last session, and how they have utilized at least one of their coping skills since last time we met.

Anger management methods can only be expected to work with individuals who are aware of the fact that their aggressive behaviour results from a failure to control their aggressive impulses and who are motivated to change their inadequate handling of these impulses.
